   Fryers are one of the best investments any food service business can make. You don't only have to use them to make the typical fries, chicken, or fish. Anything is possible with a little creativity. Your customers will not only love the typical foods that are normally fried, but also anything from pickles, macaroni and cheese, and even ice cream. Don't know what kind of fryer will best suit your needs? Then give us a call, our sales staff will fit you with the ideal fryer for your needs.

   One popular option is the Vulcan 1VK85D, it was designed with your needs in mind. It is easy to use, clean, and will provide you with large amounts of fried goodies to serve your customers. The entire cabinet and fry tank are both constructed of stainless steel. As long as you remember to maintain it, it will remain rust and corrosion free. This model features accurate temperature control ranging from 200 to 390 degrees Fahrenheit. You'll be able to cook with compensating time or actual time with electronic ignition control. It includes three melt modes, two count-down timers, and an auto boil-out mode.

   The fry tank uses a FivePass™ transfer system. Its unique configuration is more efficient than the standard fryer. This is because the system uses five different phases in order to transfer heat from the burners to the oil. It yields 66% of cooking efficiency and 78% thermal efficiency. The oil capacity for the fry tank is 85 to 90 pounds. This includes one set of twin fry baskets with plastic coated handles. At the bottom is a V shaped cold zone. A fryer that has a V shaped cold zone will work especially well if you're looking to fry foods that come frozen. It will capture any crumbs or other debris and keep them from burning which could have a negative effect on the taste of your food. Another perk of a V shaped cold zone is how easy it is to clean and once it is time to replace your oil, a 1-1/4" full port drain valve will easily drain everything out for you. The gas burners will automatically turn off when you are draining oil due to the drain valve interlock switch.
