Abstract:
1. A method of chilling foodstuff contained in a chilling compartment by pulling down a temperature inside of the foodstuff to be chilled, the method comprising: a first step of pulling down the temperature inside of the chilling compartment until the temperature inside of the chilling compartment is lower than a first pre-set value (K a second step of, after the temperature inside of the chilling compartment is lower than the first pre-set value (K a third step of detecting a temperature at a core of the foodstuff to be chilled; a fourth step of comparing the detected temperature at the core of the foodstuff to be chilled with a second pre-set value (H a fifth step of, when the detected temperature at the core of the foodstuff is lower than the second pre-set value (H a sixth step of, when the detected temperature at the core of the foodstuff is higher than the second pre-set value (H a seventh step of, when, as a result of the comparison performed by said sixth step, the detected temperature at the core of the foodstuff is lower than the preliminarily calculated value (T an eighth step of, when, as the result of the comparison performed by the sixth step, the detected temperature at the core of the foodstuff is higher than the preliminarily calculated value (T wherein the preliminary calculated value (T wherein each modification of the first pre-set temperature value (K wherein the first pre-set temperature value (K
