FriFri Profi+ 8+8 Twin Tank Electric Countertop Fryer 650963

The FriFri Profi+ 8+8 is a twin-tank electric countertop fryer with four baskets, designed for commercial kitchens that need to run multiple frying lines simultaneously. Each tank operates independently, which means different oils or different products can be cooked at the same time without flavour transfer — useful wherever a menu runs fish and chips or chicken alongside one another. The stainless steel construction is built to withstand the rigours of regular commercial use.

In practice, the dual-tank configuration handles the kind of volume that a single-tank fryer of equivalent size cannot. Each tank draws 6.9kW on a three-phase supply, giving genuine recovery speed after loading. Combined output reaches 44kg of fried product per hour under typical service conditions, which makes this fryer viable for busy lunch and dinner services without becoming a bottleneck. Independent temperature controls allow each tank to be dialled in precisely, which reduces waste from overcooked product and helps maintain consistency across service.

From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:

• Two tanks run independently, eliminating flavour crossover between different products
• Four baskets support continuous load-and-lift service during peak periods
• Rear-mounted slot-in lid doubles as a splashback and basket rest, keeping the work area tidy
• Stainless steel tanks are straightforward to drain and clean at close-down
• Countertop format fits into existing fry station layouts without floor space commitment

Installation requires a three-phase electrical supply — this is not suitable for single-phase connections. The countertop footprint is compact, but the unit weighs just under 24kg so bench load capacity and a secure, level surface are worth confirming before installation. Ventilation requirements should be assessed against your existing extraction canopy coverage.

This fryer suits pubs, fish and chip shops, fast-casual restaurants, and similar operations where a two-product frying menu runs continuously through service. It is a capable mid-range unit. For higher-volume sites or operations running extended service periods, a heavier-duty or floor-standing alternative may be worth considering. Equally, operators with a single-product menu and lighter throughput may find a single-tank model a more cost-effective fit.

If you are unsure whether this model matches your service volume or installation setup, our team is happy to work through the options with you before you commit.
