I store sake in both a refrigerator and a wine cellar. Which is more suitable?
The wine cellar has a minimum temperature of 5 degrees Celsius, and I couldn’t find the exact temperature for the refrigerator.
The sake is stored in the door pocket of the refrigerator.
We received such a question!
Let’s answer it right away.
In conclusion, both have their pros and cons.
In the case of the refrigerator：
冷蔵庫は開け閉めが多いことと、ドアポケットだと開けるたびに振動も加わるため、変化が早いと思われます。
ただし、ドアポケットに立てて保存ができることは長所です。
The refrigerator is frequently opened and closed, and the door pocket shakes each time, which may lead to quicker changes.
However, one advantage is that the sake can be stored upright in the door pocket.
In the case of the wine cellar：
On the other hand, many wine cellars do not cool effectively during the summer, so caution is needed.
However, the advantage is that it can maintain a stable temperature of around 5 degrees Celsius with less frequent opening and closing.
Ideally, the best condition is to store sake upright at -5 degrees Celsius.
By the way, there are dedicated sake cellars that can maintain a temperature of -5 degrees Celsius, which would be the optimal solution for home storage.
Please use this information as a reference.
