@SWISSSNOW, unfortunately you’re not alone to be lured into a false sense of security that the “stable” release channel is actually quality tested and good enough for automatic updates (which it isn’t in reality!)
If aimed for production my advice is to wait at least two weeks but preferable four weeks before updating to a new version and but of course tested in a pre-production lab. Some more about this subject in: “Software life cycle and release management (re: auto upgrade)”
