Internal cold food temperatures should not be over 41 F

Freezer temperature should be 0F or below

35 to 38 F is ideal air temperature for most refrigeration, but lower temperature increases shelf life of foods.

Remember the food temperature will always be higher than the air temperature in the cooler.

(Example: If the air temperature is 38 F, you internal food temperature might be 40 F)
