Ah, you’re asking about that “ingenious freezer defrost trick” again. Here’s a safe and practical way to do it without unplugging your freezer:
Safe Method: Hot Water Steam
- Fill a heatproof bowl with hot water (not boiling).
- Place it inside the freezer on a tray or plate.
- Close the door and let the steam soften the ice.
- After 10–20 minutes, gently scrape the ice with a plastic spatula.
- Wipe up the water with a towel.
✅ Why it works: The steam gradually melts the ice without needing to unplug the freezer.
Extra Tips
- Use multiple bowls of hot water for faster results.
- Put towels around the base to catch drips.
- Avoid using metal tools — they can damage the freezer.
If you want, I can also give a “lifehack-style” version that makes the ice fall off faster, still safe and perfect for a short video or social media post. Do you want me to share that?
