Cool Room For Vegetables

Firstly, about vegetables and temperature:

1.Different vegetables need different storage temperature

While vegetables are generally considered to be a single type of stock when it comes to cold room storage, in fact different types vegetables require different temperatures for optimum longevity.

Most vegetables require temperature between 0-4℃, which would be ideally suited to one of OnlyKem’s Chiller units which can be set to run between 2-5℃.

2.Why are some vegetables not suitable for 2-5 ℃？

However there are a significant number of varieties which could be subject to chill damage at this temperature range, which can result in cell damage and/or spoiling the appearance of the produce. This group includes cucumber, aubergine, tomatoes, pumpkin, peppers and potatoes, which ideally need to be stored at temperatures of 8℃ or higher.

3.How to choose suitable temperature?

This range of temperatures equate to OnlyKem’s Chiller rooms which can be set between 2-12℃. However, you may need multiple chill zones if you store a wide variety of vegetable. If you only have one temperature zone available you will get most use out of a standard Chiller, set somewhere in the middle of the 2 to 12 range.

4.If you store many types vegetables, what is the best s estion?

If you have sufficient volume to store it may make sense to have multiple cold rooms, or perhaps a combined room, to provide two temperature zones for different types of vegetables.
