  • Practical Performance: The separate tanks are brilliant for menu versatility, like keeping gluten-free separate.
  • Power Planning Needed: Requires two separate 13A sockets, so check your setup before buying.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Cafe in Whitby, North Yorkshire, needed to increase its fried food output to cope with the busy summer tourist season. Their single fryer was causing a bottleneck, especially when they needed to cook fish and  chips simultaneously.

"The Modena twin tank fryer has been brilliant. We can now cook our battered haddock in one side and  chips in the other, meaning everything comes out fresh and  crispy at the same time. Our customers are happier, and  the queue moves much faster."

Robert Davies – Owner

The upgrade resulted in a 30% increase in the number of fish and  chip orders they could fulfil during the peak lunch hour.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Place the fryer on a flat, stable, and  non-combustible countertop.
  • Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit for heat to dissipate.
  • Crucially, you will need two independent 13A plug sockets within reach, one for each tank. Do not use an extension lead.
  • Before first use, wipe the tanks clean and  perform an initial 'seasoning' by heating a full tank of oil as per the user manual.

Keeping It Going

  • Filter your cooking oil at the end of each day to extend its life and  improve food quality.
  • When changing the oil, use the drain taps for safe removal. Once empty, clean the tanks thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
  • Regularly wipe down the stainless steel exterior with a soft cloth and  appropriate cleaner to maintain its finish.
  • Periodically check that the power cords and  plugs are free from damage.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Countertop Fryer

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

Menu Versatility

If you plan to cook different types of food, like fish and  chips or onion rings and  doughnuts, a commercial twin tank electric fryer is a must. It prevents flavour crossover, ensuring every item tastes exactly as it should.

Power Requirements

Always check your kitchen's power capabilities. This model requires two separate 13A sockets. Check you have these available near where the fryer will live to avoid any installation headaches.

Space & Ventilation

Measure your counter space carefully, remembering to leave room around the unit for air to circulate. Good ventilation is key for both safety and  performance in a busy kitchen environment.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for features that make life easier. A fryer with drain taps, like this Modena EF102V, transforms the daily chore of oil changing from a heavy, messy job into a quick, safe, and  simple task.

Oil Capacity vs Output

Consider how much you need to fry during your busiest periods. A 2x10 litre fryer offers a great balance, providing high output for rushes without the huge oil consumption of a larger floor model.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

A: Yes, absolutely. Each tank has its own independent power supply and  thermostat, so you can run one while the other is off, saving energy during quieter periods.

Q: What is the ideal amount of oil to use in each tank?

A: For best results and  to prevent over-foaming, the recommended oil capacity is between 6 and  8 litres per tank.

Q: How long does it take to heat up?

A: Thanks to the powerful 3kW element in each tank, the oil reaches the optimal frying temperature of 180°C relatively quickly, typically in around 10-15 minutes.

Q: What are the drain taps for?

A: The drain taps provide a safe and  easy way to empty old cooking oil from the tanks without having to lift and  pour, which reduces mess and  the risk of burns.

Q: Is this fryer suitable for a food truck?

A: Yes, its countertop design and  manageable weight of 14.6kg make it a very popular choice for mobile catering, provided you have the necessary power supply.

Q: Are the frying baskets included with the purchase?

A: Yes, the unit comes complete with two durable wire frying baskets and  two stainless steel lids.

Q: What is the 'micro switch' feature?

A: The micro switch is a safety feature that automatically cuts power to the heating element if the head unit is lifted from the fryer body, preventing accidents during cleaning.

Q: Can I cook from frozen in this fryer?

A: Yes, it is powerful enough to handle cooking products from frozen. Just be sure to follow the food manufacturer's instructions and not overload the baskets.

Effortless End-of-Day Cleaning: How Drain Taps Simplify Your Routine

At the end of a long, busy service, the last thing anyone wants to do is deal with heavy, hazardous vats of used cooking oil. Without drain taps, your only option is to wait for the oil to cool and then lift the entire heavy tank out to pour it away – a recipe for spills, burns, and  backache. The Modena EF102V fryer solves this with its simple, front-mounted drain taps.

Think of it like emptying a bathtub. Instead of bailing the water out with a bucket, you just pull the plug. With this countertop deep fat fryer, you simply place a suitable container underneath and  open the tap. The old oil drains out quickly, safely, and  cleanly. It's a small feature that makes a huge difference to your daily operations, saving you time, reducing mess, and  making one of the kitchen's worst jobs a whole lot safer.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Pubs & Bars: Ideal for adding a reliable fryer to your kitchen for classic pub grub like chips, scampi, and  chicken wings.
  • Mobile Caterers: Its robust, portable, and  powerful design makes this twin tank chip fryer a must-have for any food truck or event stall.
  • Cafes & Bistros: Effortlessly expand your lunch menu with fried options without committing to a large, expensive floor-standing unit.
  • Small Fish & Chip Shops: Use it as a dedicated secondary fryer for things like sausages or gluten-free items, preventing cross-contamination.
