Ben & Jerry's ice cream stays too hard at standard freezer temperature (-5°F) making it difficult to scoop and serve, unlike other ice cream brands.

Freezer temperature management systems that can handle different ice cream consistencies are not available or not used; the owner relies on a single temperature setting that works for most brands but not for Ben & Jerry's.
