Hereâs the short answer: The ideal refrigerator temperature, measured in the middle of the middle shelf, is between 35 and 38 degrees. Your fridge needs to be warm enough so your food doesnât freeze (32 degrees) but not so warm that it crosses into the bacterial danger zone (above 40 degrees). So a number somewhere around the middle of those two bookends makes sense. You probably know that some places in the refrigerator are warmer than others.
So exactly what temperature should a fridge be? Your fridge should be cooling food anywhere in between 36 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit (2.2 to 4.5 degrees Celsius). How do you test this? Use a probe thermometer to gauge the temperature of the inside of food that has been sitting in your fridge for at least 24 hours.
