Expert Review and  Insights

The Lincat Opus 800 series has a formidable reputation, and  this twin tank fryer shows you why. It’s not just about power; it’s about clever, practical design. The inboard drainage is a huge plus for safety, and  the temperature recovery is impressively quick, which is exactly what you need when the orders start flooding in on a Friday night.

Liam Hudson – Fish & Chips Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Pros: The dual tanks are brilliant for menu flexibility and  allergen management.
  • Cons: It requires a 3-phase supply, so double-check your kitchen's wiring first.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Salty Skipper in Padstow, Cornwall, found their single-tank fryer couldn't cope with the summer tourist rush, leading to long queues and  compromised quality. They upgraded to the Lincat OE8105 to handle the volume and  separate their gluten-free options.

"It’s been brilliant. We can now fly through orders without worrying about the fish tasting of sausages. Our oil is lasting longer, and  customers have noticed how consistently crispy everything is. It’s made our service so much smoother."

Robert Davies – Head Fryer

The upgrade helped them reduce average customer wait times by over 30% during peak season and  significantly cut down on oil wastage.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • This unit must be installed, commissioned, and  serviced by a qualified commercial engineer.
  • Ensure it's positioned on a completely level and  stable floor to prevent tipping and  ensure even cooking.
  • A 400V, 3-phase electrical supply with appropriate isolation is required for connection.
  • Always leave adequate ventilation space around the sides and  back of the fryer as per the manufacturer's guidelines.

Keeping It Going

  • Filter your cooking oil at least once a day to prolong its life and  maintain the quality of your food.
  • After draining old oil, clean the tank thoroughly with warm, soapy water, ensuring it is fully dry before refilling.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior daily with a soft cloth and  a suitable, non-abrasive cleaner.
  • Periodically check the thermostat's accuracy to ensure it's holding the correct temperature for perfect results.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Fryer

Not sure which fryer fits your kitchen's needs? Here are a few key things to consider before you buy.

Volume & Recovery Time

How busy are you? High-volume sites need a fryer with powerful elements and  quick temperature recovery like this one to keep up with demand.

Gas or Electric?

Electric fryers often provide more precise temperature control, but always check you have the right power supply (e.g., a 3-phase connection for this model).

Kitchen Footprint

Measure your space carefully. Freestanding models like this Opus 800 freestanding fryer offer high capacity but need dedicated floor space in your cook line.

Single or Twin Tank?

A twin basket electric fryer is essential if you're cooking different foods (like fish and  chips or vegan options) to prevent flavour transfer and  cross-contamination.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for features like hinged elements, drain valves, and  welded pans. An easy-to-clean fryer saves staff time and  improves kitchen hygiene.

Filtration Systems

Does it have built-in or optional filtration? Using a filtration system can save you a fortune on cooking oil in the long run.

How Inboard Drainage Keeps Your Kitchen Safer & Cleaner

You'll often see 'inboard oil drainage' on spec sheets, but what does it actually mean for your kitchen? Put simply, it’s a much safer and  cleaner way to empty old oil. Instead of having to attach a clunky, external pipe to the front of the fryer – which can be easily knocked or drip hot oil on the floor – the entire drainage system is built into the cabinet underneath.

Think of it like having a built-in funnel. When it's time to drain, you just open an internal valve and  the used oil flows directly and  neatly into a bucket or container placed safely inside the stand. It turns a risky, messy job into a quick, contained, and  far less stressful task for your staff.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fish & Chip Shops: The perfect setup for crisping up fish and  chips in separate tanks to avoid any flavour crossover.
  • Busy Pubs & Restaurants: A reliable workhorse for high-demand kitchens serving scampi, onion rings, and  other popular fried sides.
  • Event Caterers: A powerful freestanding unit that delivers consistent results for large-scale functions and  outdoor events.
  • Takeaways & Ghost Kitchens: Its dual-tank efficiency is ideal for managing a varied menu with speed, quality, and  precision.
