Type of Fish & freezing time chart
By any chance can I get a chart of type of fish & freezing time for the fish.
This is essentially for a blast freezer application.

Re: Type of Fish & freezing time chart

Re: Type of Fish & freezing time chart
Actually it depends of fish type and how much fat it has. Long time ago I studied this issue and it isn't simple. What kind of equipment are you going to use for freezing?

Re: Type of Fish & freezing time chart
We are making trolley freezers. But many a times, the clients want to know the time factor for variety of fish to be frozen. Though they are aware about the thickness / mass / water content etc are the factors causing the change in time factor, all are asking if we can prepare a chart showing a typical data on freeze time of a variety of fish.
And yes that shall be used only for thumb rule calculations for freeze time.
I could get some details though & shall share them once I prepare a report on that.
Still Typical Fish data is missing in that report & thought may be our forum can help.

Re: Type of Fish & freezing time chart
Freezing time is by far much more related to how good ventilation can interchange with the fish, what temperature you have in your blast freezer, how good the contact is with the trolley's, full plate trolleys or meshwire construction, guidance of the air, spacing between the fishs, ...Take water as product to be frozen and this will give you a safe but rough estimate.
Only practical test will tell you the exact freezing time of your product.It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

Re: Type of Fish & freezing time chart
To add at my previous post: doubling capacity will not divide freezing time with 2. Capacity is one thing, making sure that this capacity can extract the heat out of your product is more difficult.
