7. FILTERING & CHANGING THE OIL
•
Make sure the deep fryer is unplugged and the oil has cooled before cleaning or storing the
deep fryer.
•
The oil does not need to be changed after each use. In general, the oil will be tainted rather
quickly when frying food containing a lot of protein (such as poultry, meat or fish). When oil is
mainly used to fry potatoes and is filtered after each use, it can be used 8 to 10 times.
However, do not use the same oil for longer than 6 months.
•
To filter the oil, first make sure the oil has cooled and then empty the oil from the oil container
(#3) into another container or bottle. Fig. 6
Wash and dry the oil container and basket. Refill the oil container with the oil, pouring the oil
through a wire strainer or paper filter. Fig. 7
