Fry oil filtration extends the life of your oil by 50% and safeguards those delicious flavors your restaurant is known for. Kitchens that do not filter their fry oil usually have to replace the oil more often, which can become costly. Apart from that, unfiltered oil can cause deep-fried food to smell bad and become soggy and unappealing. Skipping oil filtration can also negatively impact your commercial deep fryers as dirty oil uses more energy to heat and is likely to damage your equipment.
Unfiltered frying oil can also increase free radicals in the body, which can cause inflammation – the root cause of most diseases including obesity, heart disease and diabetes. High inflammation in the body can also reduce immunity and make you prone to infections.
is filtering worth it?
Using a fryer filter prevents food particles from burning and ruining your oil. When oil is filtered daily, it lasts over twice as long, and you’ll save your restaurant a lot of money. Filtering makes food taste better too. Depending on your restaurant, you will want to filter your oil down to 5 microns for best results.
