Abstract
A refrigerator counter includes a goods receiving chamber and a counter bed. Following cooling by a cooling source and following moistening by hot steam of an air moistening system, a circulating air current is conveyed through the goods receiving chamber and from it at least in part back to the cooling source and to a steam feed point. Following cooling, at least one portion of the resultant cold air is branched off from the circulating air current and is swirled in a mixed air chamber with hot steam guided into the mixed air chamber. Resulting moistened mixed air is conveyed by at least one steam outlet nozzle into the goods receiving chamber.
