Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Chippy on the Corner, a popular takeaway in Aberystwyth, Wales, found their old fryer was causing bottlenecks during the busy tourist season. They upgraded to the Blaze BF40P to increase their capacity and  speed of service.

"We needed a machine that could keep up when we have a queue out the door. The Blaze keeps the oil consistently hot and  the chips perfectly crispy, no matter how many orders we have on the go. It’s made our busiest shifts much less stressful."

Michael Edwards – Owner

The result? The Chippy on the Corner has reduced customer wait times significantly, increasing their peak-hour output by over 30%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Always place the fryer on a firm, level surface using the adjustable feet to ensure stability.
  • Installation must be carried out by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer for safety and  compliance.
  • Before first use, ensure the gas connection is secure and  test for any leaks.
  • Fill the tank with fresh oil between the minimum and  maximum level markers before lighting.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down all external stainless steel surfaces daily with a soft cloth and  suitable cleaner.
  • Filter your oil daily to remove food particles and  prolong its life.
  • Regularly check that the pilot light is clear of debris for reliable ignition.
  • Perform a full 'boil out' clean periodically, following the manufacturer's instructions, to remove stubborn grease build-up.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Gas Fryer

Not sure which fryer is the right fit for your kitchen? Here’s a quick guide to help you decide.

Gas Type: LPG vs. Natural

LPG fryers, like this one, are perfect for mobile units or kitchens without a mains gas supply. Always check which connection you have available before you buy.

Tank Capacity & Output

Match the tank's litre capacity to your peak-hour demand. A 23 litre gas fryer like this is ideal for high-volume sites that need consistent output.

Heat Recovery Time

This is how quickly the oil returns to temperature after adding frozen food. A fast recovery time is crucial for busy kitchens to avoid soggy results.

Footprint & Dimensions

Space is always a premium in commercial kitchens. Measure your available spot carefully, and  don't forget to account for ventilation clearance.

Baskets: Single vs. Twin

A twin basket LPG fryer lets you cook different items like fish and  chips separately, preventing flavour transfer and  improving workflow.

What is a 'Cold Zone' and  Why Does It Matter?

Ever noticed how cooking oil can quickly become dark and  start to taste bitter? That's often caused by tiny crumbs and  bits of batter falling off the food, getting scorched at the bottom of the fryer, and  tainting the oil. A 'large cold zone', like the one in the Blaze BF40P fryer, is a clever design feature that solves this problem.

Think of it like a cool, calm harbour at the bottom of the fryer tank. The main burners heat the oil above this zone, while the very bottom stays significantly cooler. Any food particles that fall off sink down into this 'cold zone', where they won't burn and  spoil the oil. This simple but effective feature means your oil stays cleaner and  fresher for much longer, which not only makes your food taste better but also saves you money on frequent oil changes.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fish & Chip Shops: The high output and  fast recovery are perfect for handling Friday night rushes with ease.
  • Mobile Caterers & Food Trucks: Its powerful LPG setup is ideal for serving crispy food to crowds at events and  festivals.
  • Pub & Bar Kitchens: Reliably churns out baskets of chips, wings, and  other fried favourites without slowing down service.
  • Busy Takeaways: The twin basket design helps you manage a varied menu, cooking different items simultaneously.
