Making some stock tonight but have to freeze it. What's the best way to freeze the stock? Should I let it cool all the way before I freeze?

No need to cool to room temp. I let cool a little and stick in freezer.

I made some late last night and set it outside to cool since it was in the 40s. This way it won't tax your fridge.

Cool it and put it in the fridge. Take the fat layer off and then reduce it so it won't take up a lot of space in your freezer, if you like. You can add water to it when you defrost or use the stronger version, if the dish warrants.

I let it cool first, but I can't think of any reason why you would need to other than not wanting to raise the temp of yyour freezer at all

Or this.

Just depends on what parts of the chicken you used to make it. Even carcasses will render some fat and I don't like to freeze it with the stock, even a little.
