Detailed explanation-2: -The Ideal Freezer Temperature It’s pretty easy to remember: Your freezer temperature should be set to a chilly 0° Fahrenheit or below (-18° Celsius or below).

Detailed explanation-5: -"The longer the molecules are held above 0°F, the quicker they are able to come out of the dormant stage, causing the growth of microorganisms that cause both food spoilage and foodborne illness."
