Author(s) : BOYETTE M. D.
Type of article: Article
Summary
An easy-to-build thermal storage system designed to provide access to hydrocooling to those growers with insufficient produce volume to take full economic advantage of most commercial hydrocooling equipment. Hydrocooling is a particularly fast and effective way to cool produce items that are slow to cool because of their large volume to surface area ratio. These items include sweet corn, melons and many large tree fruit.
