  • Pros: The rapid heat-up time is fantastic for handling unexpected rushes.
  • Cons: Its 13-amp plugs mean you need two separate sockets for full power.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Hungry Hiker, a popular walkers' cafe in Keswick, Lake District, needed to speed up its lunchtime service. Their single, ageing fryer was causing bottlenecks on busy weekends, especially with orders for chips and  their famous battered halloumi.

"The Blizzard double fryer has been a revelation. We can have chips going constantly in one tank whilst using the other for speciality items. Our customers are happier, and  the kitchen is far less stressed. It just keeps on going, no matter what we throw at it."

Robert Davies – Owner, The Hungry Hiker

Since installation, the cafe has reduced its average food wait time during peak hours by 30%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure the fryer is placed on a stable, level, and  non-combustible countertop.
  • Leave adequate space around the unit for ventilation – at least 10cm is recommended.
  • Before first use, wash the removable tanks, baskets, and  lids with warm, soapy water.
  • You will need two separate 13-amp sockets to run both tanks at the same time.

Keeping It Going

  • Filter the oil at the end of each day to remove food particles and  prolong its life.
  • Perform a full clean weekly: drain the old oil and  thoroughly wash the tanks.
  • Use a soft cloth and  stainless steel cleaner to wipe down the exterior, avoiding abrasive pads.
  • Regularly check that the power cords and  plugs are in good condition with no signs of wear.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Fryer

Not sure which fryer is the perfect fit for your kitchen? Here are a few things to consider.

Capacity and  Output

Think about your busiest hour. A 2x 6L fryer is great for small to medium sites, but a high-volume chip shop might need a larger freestanding unit.

Power Source

Electric fryers like this one are easy to install – just plug them in. Gas fryers often heat up faster but require a certified gas connection.

Footprint

Countertop models save valuable floor space. Always measure your available counter depth and  width before you buy.

Ease of Cleaning

Features like removable tanks, drain taps, and  stainless steel construction will save your staff hours of cleaning time each week.

Single or Twin Tank?

A commercial double tank electric fryer is essential for cooking different foods (like fish and  chips) or catering for allergens (like gluten-free) safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use just one tank at a time?

A: Yes, absolutely. Each tank has its own independent power plug and  temperature control, so you can run one or both as needed.

Q: How long does it take to heat up?

A: Heat-up time can vary, but typically it takes around 10-15 minutes to reach the optimal frying temperature of 180°C.

Q: What is the maximum capacity of each basket?

A: For best results and  to avoid oil temperature dropping, we recommend a maximum chip capacity of around 0.75kg per basket.

Q: Is this model easy to drain and  clean?

A: Yes, the tanks are fully removable, which makes draining old oil and  cleaning them in a sink much easier than models with fixed tanks.

Q: Does it come with lids?

A: Yes, this fryer is supplied with two stainless steel lids to cover the oil when not in use, helping to keep it clean.

Q: What kind of plug does it have?

A: It is fitted with two standard UK 3-pin, 13-amp plugs. You will need two separate wall sockets to operate both tanks simultaneously.

Q: Can I cook battered fish in this?

A: Yes, the mesh batter plate sits above the heating element to catch any drips of batter, preventing them from burning and  tainting the oil.

Q: What type of oil should I use?

A: You should use a high-quality commercial cooking oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable, rapeseed, or sunflower oil.

What Customers Are Saying

"A brilliant restaurant twin basket fryer. Heats up in no time and  the two tanks are a lifesaver for our gluten-free options. Very easy to clean as well, which is a big bonus."

Chloe Williams – The Courtyard Bistro, Cardiff

Tom Singh – The Royal Oak, York

"We bought this for our dessert parlour to make fresh doughnuts. It holds temperature really well which is key for a perfect finish. Very impressed!"

Why the Safety Cut-Out is Your Kitchen's Guardian Angel

Ever wondered what the 'safety cut-out' feature really does? In simple terms, it's a clever little failsafe built into the fryer. Its one job is to constantly monitor the temperature of the oil. If, for any reason, the main thermostat fails and  the oil starts to get dangerously hot, the safety cut-out automatically trips and  shuts off the power to the heating element, preventing the oil from ever reaching its flashpoint.

Think of it like the emergency brake on a train. You hope you never have to use it, but it's incredibly reassuring to know it's there. This single feature provides essential protection against fire risks, offering you and  your staff crucial peace of mind during a hectic service. It’s a small detail that makes a huge difference to kitchen safety.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Cafés and  Bistros

    Perfect for adding crispy calamari, chips, or onion rings to your lunch menu without cross-contamination.

  • Pubs and  Bars

    Ideal for quickly serving up batches of popular bar snacks like chicken wings, mozzarella sticks, and  loaded fries.

  • Mobile Caterers

    Its compact size and  standard plug-in power make this a reliable choice for food trucks and  event stalls.
