Features
The Samsung Curd Maestro Family Hub refrigerator now comes with the company’s proprietary Curd Maestro technology all one needs to do is boil and cool the milk and mix the curd culture manually. It will not only ferment the curd but will store it too. Curd Maestro makes curd with the same consistency each time and eliminates all the hassle of curd making in different weather conditions. Curd Maestro enables curd preparation in 6.5 to 7.5 hours – 6.5 hours for soft curd, 7.5 hours for thick curd.
In addition to this, the Samsung refrigerators come with a built-in View Inside Camera, therefore, allowing the users to take a quick peek inside the refrigerator with a multi-finger swipe down on the Family Hub screen, without opening the refrigerator. You can also use the SmartThings app to see what’s inside the refrigerator without even opening its door while you are not at home.
This feature will let you create shopping lists, food memos, digitally label food with expiration dates and set reminders. These features on the Curd Maestro Family Hub lets you stay more organised. The built-in screen can be used as a whiteboard, memo or even a photo album. Over that users can also make calls and share photos and notes with each other through the refrigerator. They can even share and update calendars through the Family Hub app.
You can also enjoy hands-free calls with Bixby voice control. Just ask “Hi Bixby, what’s new today?” and it will provide a readout of the news, weather and calendar updates.
