Food stays fresh and frosty even when NEPA or whatever they call themselves these days decide to supply darkness for 3 days straight





See why Bruhm Freezers and Fridges are the appliances you can trust to keep your cabbage, lettuce, pepper and other vegetables crispy and fresh.


Also, pay attention because I will show you exactly how to locate reliable sellers on Jumia that you can trust to deliver your fridge or freezer to you.


I will even give you their contact details so that you can start harassing them once you place your order.


NEPA- I keep calling them NEPA because up till now I still can’t keep up with their many names. When I was in Benin, they were BEDC; I think.


Here they're EKDC.


Anyway, the people that supply power said there was a power grid failure and long story short, they supplied darkness to my area for two months.


The power grid failure hit the whole nation. And as a result, lots of Nigerians battled with warming food over and over to avoid food decaying.


Those that could, kept their generators on from morning till night to power hardworking freezers and fridges.


I’m sure blackouts have shown you the strengths or weaknesses of your food storage game.


If you didn't have a reliable freezer, you probably spent time warming your favorite soup over and over with tears in your eyes. Ok no tears, hopefully.


Some freezers or fridges perform best with direct power supply.

But a Bruhm freezer (both the chest and upright models) work well with generator power.


There is this peace of mind that sweeps over you when you open your freezer or fridge thirty minutes after switching on your generator, and the stuff inside is already chilled.


That rapid cooling speed is important because one liter of fuel is 165 Naira and there’s no need to say more. Bruhm fridges and freezers have this rapid cooling feature.


I’m not the only one that has a soft spot for Bruhm products. I went to the butcher section of a market close to my house to buy meat.

While arguing with the trader that wanted to sell me just 10 pieces of beef for 1000 Naira (because I’m fresh and look like an ajebo), I noticed that most of the freezers there were Bruhm products.


I asked one of the traders what he thought of the freezer and he simply said ''that freezer? E dey keep cold well well’’, or something like that.

 

See, I’m sure you will agree that retaining coldness is the most important feature of a freezer or fridge.


Apart from retaining coldness, the models operate silently. The upright models are slightly louder, but they give off a soothing hum that won't disrupt your sleep. That is if you are the type that loves to keep a fridge in your bedroom.


No judgment from me. My sister keeps a double door fridge in her bedroom, stocked full with ice cream, drinks, and all the good things of life. It is what it is.


But even if you don't keep the freezer in your bedroom, you don't want a noisy appliance, do you?


Then choose Bruhm if you love a quiet fridge or freezer.


Is it the freezing space you need? Bruhm chest freezers are ice boxes of freezing space. And they come in various sizes from 100L to 300L. There are even larger sizes. And they come with storage baskets, so you don’t have to buy extra baskets.


I love the way white frosty air floats out of the freezer whenever I open it–Amina, one of my readers.


Yes, that white misty air that looks like it's coming from the north pole is one sign of a powerful freezer.


But be careful to avoid freezer burn. Have you heard of freezer burn?


Freezer burn is that thing that occurs when frozen meat loses its color and becomes gray instead of red or dark red. The meat also loses its taste and can even feel stronger when chewing. 


Even vegetables and soups can experience freezer burn. You will notice that they no longer taste as good and the vegetables feel dry.


Freezer burn happens because the freezer has sucked out too much moisture from the foodstuff.


But you can avoid it.


  • Allow your foodstuff to cool properly before placing them in the freezer. Try not to place steaming hot soup inside a freezer. Instead, wait till it is cool.


  • Boil your fruits and vegetables for two minutes before placing them in the fridge or freezer.


Now, this is the really important part


  • Place your foodstuff in airtight containers before putting them in the freezer. Air is the main cause of freezer burn.

  • Wrap the meat in foil and place them in resealable zip-lock bags.

  • Try to order now because stock is very limited. Popular sellers rarely have products in stock because dem dey rush am.

  • For soup, just place your soup inside airtight containers and don’t forget to cool them before placing them in the freezer.


  • Finally, thawing food and refreezing it again causes freezer burn. Try to store your food in a way that you will only bring out the quantity you need from the freezer instead of taking and returning.


Once you take all these steps to avoid freezer burn, you can appreciate the white misty air that wafts out of your Bruhm freezer with confidence.


But it is not just the fast freezing and cold retention that makes Bruhm such a reliable freezer brand.


Have you noticed the build of Bruhm freezers and fridges?


They are solid. If you hit the body of a Bruhm freezer with your knuckle, you would feel the thickness. Thickness as in strong like rock, not the other kind of thickness that Naija men can die for.


On a serious note, these appliances were built with durability in mind. They don’t dent easily and they don’t rust too.


And the handles are solid. They won’t fall off when you pull them or when you try to open the fridge or freezer.

Now you may roll your eyes and say, Samuel, which freezer handle will fall off when you try to open it?


Just take it from me that interacts with several appliances so that you won’t have to. Some brands no dey try.


But Bruhm is doing well. The compressors are solid and hermetic. I won’t bore you with details of a hermetic compressor.


Just know that they are more affordable and easier to replace. They last longer too and rarely cause leakage.


Another interesting thing about Bruhm freezing appliances is that they are tropicalized.

‘Tropicalized’ sounds like slang from 2007. I can imagine a secondary school boy with low-waist and swagger calling himself Mr Tropicalized. Its a marketing term coined by no-one-knows.


But in this case, it simply means that Bruhm fridges and freezers are built for higher ambient (surrounding) temperatures and humidity.


You know how our weather is. This is the tropics after all. This ability to withstand our sunny, sweaty temperature helps the appliances to function properly in spite of the heat.


So even if you place the fridge or freezer in a warm place without an air conditioner (which is what most of us would do), it would still preserve your foodstuff properly without sweating and leaking water.


You know on a normal basis, our warm African temperature is not the best for freezers and refrigerators. This is why the tropical feature is really important.


Check out the specs for the BCS 100MG 95L freezer below.




If you want a larger size like the BCS 300MG, check out the specs in the image below. It is 283L. But I could not find a reliable seller on Jumia so you would have to get it from a physical store if you really want it.



Bruhm also has refrigerators of various sizes. But I’ve picked this one to show you. The BRS 93MMDS.

    1. Hello, sorry about your poor experience with your fridge. It could be a defective product. It could also be the area you've set the fridge. If it is in a garage of tight place, ensure that there is at least 10 inches of space between the fridge and surrounding walls. It won't cool if its placed too close to a wall.

      If it is just a defective product then kindly make use of the warranty.
