Repeat if needed: If there’s a lot of buildup, replace the cooled pot with freshly boiled water.
Prevent future frost: Avoid leaving the door open for long periods, and check the door seals to keep warm air out.
Do it regularly: A quick defrost every few months prevents thick layers of ice from forming.
By using this method, you save both time and effort while keeping your freezer running smoothly. It’s a simple household trick that proves you don’t always need fancy tools—or even to unplug your appliance—to get the job done.
