Draining the deep frying oil and fat
Drain used oil
only after it has cooled down.
Melt used fat
at the melting stage. In the cold oil
zone, the fat melts only slowly.
Use a temperature-resistant bucket
with a
capacity of at least 10 litres to collect the oil/fat.
Water
that collects in the cold oil zone can also be
drained by way of the oil drain plug.
The deep frying oil or fat
is drained off through
the oil drain valve, which is located under the
funnel-shaped base of the deep frying tub: First
unscrew the plastic cap from the drain valve and
open the drain valve by pulling the handle down
(Fig. 18).
Dispose of used oil and fat
in accordance with
local regulations.
