Stalgast Electric Twin-Vat Fryer 10 Litre

An electric twin-vat fryer heats two separate vats of oil with submerged elements, allowing simultaneous frying of different foods without flavour transfer. The oil circulates naturally, carrying heat from the element to the food; a cold zone beneath the element collects debris and prevents burning, extending oil life and reducing waste.

The operator fills each 5 litre vat with oil, sets the temperature control knob between 60 and 200 °C, and waits for the oil to reach the chosen setting. Solid baskets with heat-resistant handgrips lower into the vats, holding food clear of the element. A lid covers each vat during frying to retain heat and reduce splashing. Once the food is cooked, the baskets lift out, draining oil back into the vat, and the lid closes to keep the oil hot for the next batch.

The fryer is built as a single unit with a stainless-steel exterior and two aluminium vats. A removable control panel houses the temperature knob and indicator lights, allowing the panel to be detached for cleaning. The cold-zone system sits below each element, collecting sediment without interfering with the frying process.

Each temperature control knob sets the oil temperature for one vat, giving independent control between 60 and 200 °C. The 230 V voltage requirement matches a standard single-phase circuit found in most professional kitchens. The 10.5 kg weight allows the unit to be moved by one person using the handgrips on the baskets and lid, while the 585 mm width fits on a standard worktop without overhang.

The removable control panel and aluminium vats lift out for cleaning. The cold zone beneath each element should be emptied of debris after each service to maintain oil quality. The stainless-steel exterior wipes clean with a damp cloth, and the baskets and lids are dishwasher-safe.

The fryer is supplied as a single model with two 5 litre vats, solid baskets and lids, and a removable control panel.
