Commercial Gas Deep Fryers

Commercial Gas Deep Fryers Heat Faster

Commercial gas deep fryers can cook mouthwatering meals in hot oil using various ingredients, from proteins to dough. Gas is usually a more inexpensive and powerful source of energy. Gas deep fryers heat up and finish a fry cycle faster. Hot oil temperature is the basic science of frying. The oil must reach desired set temperatures as quickly as possible to start frying the first batch. As most energy consumption happens during the initial heating of the oil, gas deep fryers are more energy-efficient.

Points To Consider When Buying Commercial Gas Deep Fryers

The efficiency of gas makes commercial gas deep fryers more preferred cooking equipment. Therefore, manufacturers offer more features and alternatives. Here are a few tips to help you with your purchase.

1. Burner Style: Three fry pot types of commercial gas deep fryers are available. With burners placed on the exterior of the oil tank, open-pot fryers offer a spacious frying area, ideal for large items. Tube-style fryers have tubular burners set above the tank’s bottom. Burners directly contact oil and speed up the heating process. Flat-bottom burners have a wide, square-fry pot for low-density products, like donuts and funnel cakes, to float freely in the hot oil.
2. Installation Type: Countertop gas fryers are compact units with single or double pots. They occupy minimum space but can deliver maximum results with two mesh baskets in each fry pot. Gas floor fryers are larger in size and capacity. With multiple pots and baskets, you can diversify the items on your menu and produce greater volumes to satisfy bigger crowds.
3. Fat Capacity:You can calculate a commercial gas deep fryer’s production rate by the pounds of oil each fry tank holds. 1.5-2 times the given fat capacity shows the unit’s hourly output. For example, a 40-lb fat capacity means you can fry 60-80 pounds of products per hour.
4. Gas Type: When purchasing your commercial gas deep fryer, specify your type. Both propane and natural gas fryers generate high BTU ratings. Still, commercial propane deep fryers are generally known as more eco-friendly.
5. Pot Type: Prefer a split-pot design if you cook multiple products simultaneously to prevent flavor transfer.
