    When thawing block with air, is there a risk of dehydrating your
    material and thus loose yield?

    Jon Pall:

    Yes it´s possible the air thawing of frozen fish. You should use air
    blust at 300-400 meters/min speed and temperatures about 0° C,
    preferable in refrigerated chambers to be used for this purposes only.
    The time will depend of the frozen fish size, fish frozen blocks size,
    etc. This method is recommendable to thaw seafrozen fish for further
    processing in land Factories.

    I have never heard of thawing of seafood with air. Is somebody using
    this method?

    We have used thawing machines which have given us the most control in
    the procedure (time and temperature of thawing).

    Dear members,

    Air thawing is advisable or not. Especially in cuttle fish processing.
    Please tell the advantages and disadvantages.

    With regards
