Most useful thread ever. I'd say 45mins at least.

does it have a freezer compartment?

3 in the freezer bit, 3 in the fridge bit, swap at 15 mins.

Ah, the 'whack it in the freezer' technique. Two female Ilxers I could name once excavated the wall of ice that had built up at the back of their freezer and found several bottles of beer buried in there, miraculously unexploded. Result!

ha ha before my roommate moved in we chipped out the built-up ice in his minifridge (now MY synth-pit throne/beer storage facility IT'S MINE KEVIN) and found an undrank half-fifth of jaeger.

there's a bunch of it here waiting to be put in the fridge but someone drank all the cold ones without replentishing the fridge with warm ones

You should put a note on your fridge reminding coke-takers to replace the one they took with another, lest there be warm sodas on the menu.

Not that they will actually do it, but the little notes on things strategy works occasionally.

the fridge is at shin level, so no one will read it

I think we need a definition of "cold" to answer this question properly.

I'm disappointed that Jon doesn't actually have a dwarf that he pays to serve drinks.

Passive agressive housemates..

Cold = at equalibrium with fridge

Alternatively, Forget the fridge and use frozen this:
