D&D General Liquids in Bag of Holding or Portable Hole?

Cheesecloth of holding is so going to be an item in my next campaign.

One home‑brew rule (more an ignored line than a written rule, as I rarely insert magic items in my game that are exactly like those in the DMG) is to drop the line about one action to retrieve. I just keep it vague. This is something that I've always found more fun for the players and DM to determine what makes sense in the moment and what is fun. The closest I've ever come to have a mechanic for retrieval is to have the player make a dexterity or perception roll to see how quickly they can pull something out of it with the DC set by how much and what kind of stuff is in it. If the person trying to retrieve an item fails the first round, I would drop the DC the next round, and so on.

Replicating the "I really need to find my garlic, the vampire is getting really close to me... drat, that's a mosquito repellent". It can either be a tense moment or a Scooby-Doo moment :-)

Unless of course the vampire is the dreaded Count Buzzula!

What would happen if you went into your kitchen and knocked your refrigerator onto it's side? I would say that if you mistreat the way you handle the portable hole that the same would happen.

But is the contents of the fridge were stored in an ice cave far away and you open the fridge and are allowed to magically reach in for something- would knocking over the fridge do anything to the contents in the ice cave?

Or, is the fridge just larger on the inside and somehow shrinks stuff placed inside to be able to carry it around with you.
