Highlights from this day
  • dexa_or_bia — two to eight degrees. most domestic fridge doors are not in that range and people do not check 18:12
  • factory_direct_fi — power cut with the door shut for a few hours is fine. a full fridge holds temperature surprisingly well 18:15
  • factory_direct_fi — parcel sat in a hot mailbox for 5 hours, is it dead 18:42
  • factory_direct_fi — cold pack arrived completely liquid, does that mean anything 19:35
  • low_and_slow — slightly off topic but reconstituted solution is the fragile part. that is where the cold chain actually earns its keep 19:40
