Expert Review and  Insights

The Lincat OE8113 is a testament to why the brand is a staple in UK kitchens. It’s got the brawn for relentless service, with a rapid heat recovery that’s genuinely impressive.

It's a top-tier investment for any serious food business.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment Expert View Profile →

  • Pros: Incredible temperature accuracy and  recovery, ideal for non-stop frying.
  • Cons: Its hefty 24.0 kW three-phase power need isn't suitable for all sites.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Golden Fryer, a popular takeaway in Bristol, was struggling with an old, inefficient fryer that couldn't keep up with their booming delivery orders, especially on Friday nights. They upgraded to the Lincat OE8113 commercial twin tank electric fryer to boost their capacity and  cooking consistency.

"Since we got the Lincat, service has been so much smoother. The oil lasts longer, the chips are consistently brilliant, and  we're getting orders out the door much quicker. It's been a fantastic addition to the kitchen."

Michael Davies – Owner, The Golden Fryer

The upgrade resulted in a 35% increase in their order output during peak weekend periods, dramatically reducing customer wait times and  boosting weekly revenue.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure you have a suitable 3-phase electrical supply installed by a qualified electrician – this unit is powerful!
  • Position the fryer on a flat, level surface, leaving adequate ventilation space around the back and  sides.
  • Before first use, clean the tanks thoroughly with warm, soapy water and  'season' the pan as per the manufacturer's guide.
  • Familiarise yourself and  your staff with the thermostat controls and  the safety interlock feature.

Keeping It Going

  • Filter the oil at the end of every day to remove food particles; this dramatically improves its lifespan and  quality.
  • Perform a full 'boil out' clean with a specialised cleaning solution at least once a week to remove stubborn carbon deposits.
  • Regularly wipe down the stainless steel exterior to maintain its finish and  prevent grease build-up.
  • Check the door seals and  drainage valve for any signs of wear and  tear to prevent leaks.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Fryer

Not sure if this is the perfect fryer for you? Here are a few things to consider to make sure you get it spot on.

Capacity vs. Covers

Think about your busiest hour. A twin tank model like this is ideal for over 100 covers, allowing high output and  menu variety without delays.

Power Source: Electric or Gas?

Electric fryers often offer more precise temperature control and  faster recovery. Just make sure your kitchen has the required electrical supply, like the three-phase power for this model.

The Value of Filtration

An integrated or accessory filtration system, like the one available for the OE8113, can double the life of your cooking oil, leading to huge cost savings over time.

Don't Forget the Clean-Up

Look for features like hinged elements, rounded corners, and  easy-access drain valves. The easier it is to clean, the more likely it'll be done properly!

Footprint and  Positioning

A free standing electric chip fryer needs its own floor space. Measure your cook line carefully and  ensure there's safe access for staff and  for cleaning.

Budget for Quality

Investing in a trusted brand like Lincat means paying for reliability. Fewer breakdowns and  consistent performance offer a better return on investment long-term.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

A: Absolutely. Each tank has independent controls, so you can use one for quieter periods to save energy and  oil, and  fire up the second when things get busy.

Q: How long does it take to heat up from cold?

A: Thanks to its powerful 24.0 kW elements, the heat-up time is very quick for a fryer of this size, ensuring you're ready for service in no time.

Q: Is the gravity filtration system included or an extra?

A: The gravity filtration system is available as an add-on accessory, allowing you to upgrade the fryer's capabilities and  save on oil costs.

Q: How easy is it to clean the heating elements?

A: It's very straightforward. The elements are hinged and  lift completely out of the oil, with a safety cut-off, giving you full, unimpeded access to the tank.

Q: What is the maximum chip output I can expect?

A: While exact figures vary, this is a high-output machine. You can expect to produce a significant volume of chips per hour, making it ideal for the busiest services.

Q: What does the 'safety interlock' do?

A: It's a crucial safety feature that automatically cuts power to the elements when they are lifted out of the tank, preventing accidents during cleaning.

Q: Is this Opus 800 twin basket fryer easy to move for deep cleaning the floor?

A: While it's heavy at 99kg, the unit stands on legs which provides access underneath for cleaning. For moving the unit, it would require a couple of people.

Q: Can I cook battered fish and  chips in the separate tanks?

A: Yes, that's precisely what a commercial twin tank electric fryer is perfect for. It prevents any flavour transfer, ensuring your chips taste of potato, not fish.

Ben Carter – University Campus Catering, Cardiff

"We bought this for our new fish and  chip shop and  couldn't be happier. It churns out perfectly cooked fish and  chips all day long. Worth every penny."

Why the Inboard Oil Drainage is a Lifesaver

Ever had that heart-in-mouth moment carrying a bucket of hot, used oil across a slippy kitchen floor? Lincat's inboard oil drainage system is designed to make that a thing of the past. Think of it like a built-in plughole at the front of your fryer. Instead of attaching a fiddly external pipe and  draining into a container on the floor, you simply open the valve inside the cabinet and  drain the oil directly into a bucket safely stowed underneath. It’s cleaner, massively safer, and  turns a dreaded end-of-day job into a quick, hassle-free task. No spills, no awkward lifting, just simple, safe oil management.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fish & Chip Shops: The twin basket design is perfect for separating fish and  chips for that classic, untainted flavour.
  • Busy Pub Kitchens: Effortlessly handle high-demand for scampi, chips, and  onion rings during peak service hours.
  • Large Restaurants & Hotels: A reliable, high-output fryer for diverse menus, from starters to mains, without missing a beat.
  • Event & Mobile Caterers: A freestanding powerhouse that delivers consistent, restaurant-quality results at festivals and  functions.
