What is Forced-Air Cooling for Fruit Quality about?
Palletized boxes of warm fruit placed in a cold room cool very slowly. Wrapped Anjou pears in boxes vented only with hand holes may take 45 daysto reach storage temperatures. The slowest cooling fruit in the center of the pallet are dramatically softer than the faster cooling fruit near the outside edges. Properly managed forced-air cooling can reduce cooling time to less than six hours.....
