Deep Fryers

Choose a Fryer Based on Capacity

The fryers are available with a range of oil capacities. The assortment includes smaller models of approximately 3-4 litres, models with 8-9 litres, and larger fryers of 10 litres and above. There are also double models with two separate tanks, including 2 × 4, 2 × 8, 2 × 9, and 2 × 11 litres.

Consider the volume of food to be fried, how frequently the fryer will be used, and whether different ingredients need to be prepared simultaneously.

Single or Double Fryer

A single fryer features one frying tank and is suitable when the same type of frying dominates production. A double fryer features two separate tanks and may be relevant when multiple products need to be fried simultaneously or kept separate.

Also consider the electrical connection. For example, a current 2 × 4 litre countertop fryer requires two separate wall outlets, while larger models may have entirely different connection requirements. Always verify power rating, voltage, and connection specifications for the relevant model.

Countertop Fryer or Floor-Standing Fryer

The assortment includes both countertop fryers and larger floor-standing models. Countertop models can be suitable when the fryer will be placed on a workbench or where space is limited, while floor-standing fryers provide a more permanent solution for operations with higher capacity demands.

Compare overall dimensions, oil capacity, and power output with the available workspace and production requirements.

Electric or Gas Fryer

Most smaller models operate on electricity, but the category also includes gas fryers. The most suitable option depends on the kitchen’s installations and the required capacity. For example, Tingstad offers both an 8-litre gas fryer and a double gas fryer with 2 × 7 litres.

Always review installation and connection requirements before ordering, particularly for larger professional models.

Cleaning and Oil Management

Some fryers include features such as a drain tap, swivel heating element, or cool zone, which can make cleaning and oil handling easier. For example, the Bartscher Snack II Plus includes two tanks, a cool zone, a safety thermostat, and a grease drainage channel.
