Abstract

A cooling and/or freezing device produces and/or prepares or maintains a cooled component of granular medium (19). The granular medium is produced and/or prepared with a lower temperature than that ambient of less than +15 degrees Celsium and/or with an average particle size of less than 8mm, preferably less than 5mm. The production and/or issue station (1) for the granular medium is formed like a slide (2), under which is an issue position (23).
