Broaster Vizu BR1600CEEST Electric Pressure Fryer Smart Touch

The Broaster Vizu BR1600CEEST is an electric pressure fryer designed specifically for high-volume chicken cookery in commercial kitchens. Pressure frying works by sealing moisture inside the product during cooking, which produces chicken that is consistently juicy at the centre with a well-set crust — a result that is difficult to replicate with conventional open frying. This model is controlled via a 6-inch Smart Touch screen, which stores preset cook programmes and resets automatically after each cycle, keeping the process consistent regardless of who is operating it.

In a busy kitchen, throughput and consistency are what matter most. The BR1600CEEST is rated to cook approximately 18 pieces of chicken every 13 minutes, which makes it well suited to operations where chicken is a core menu item and demand is predictable but sustained. The auto-reset function reduces the risk of operator error during busy service periods, and the preset programming means less reliance on individual judgement when staff turnover is high or service is fast-paced.

From an operational standpoint, the integrated filter box and pump — positioned beneath the fryer — circulate oil through a filtration system after each cook cycle and return clean oil to the vessel automatically. This extends oil life, reduces waste, and removes the manual handling risks associated with draining and transferring hot oil. The stainless steel construction throughout supports straightforward cleaning routines.

• Consistent cook results supported by automatic programme reset after each cycle
• Integrated filtration reduces oil handling risk and extends oil usable life
• Touch screen control simplifies operation for mixed-experience kitchen teams
• Pressure cooking method retains moisture, reducing product shrinkage
• Stainless steel construction supports robust daily cleaning regimes

Installation requires a suitable electrical supply — confirm your site's capacity with a qualified electrician before ordering, as this is a high-draw appliance. The unit weighs 88kg, so access routes and floor loading should be considered during planning. Ventilation requirements will depend on your existing extraction setup; pressure frying produces less open vapour than conventional frying but extraction provision is still required.

This fryer is best suited to restaurants, takeaways, and food service operations where chicken is a primary menu item and consistent, high-volume output is essential. It is a specialist piece of equipment rather than a general-purpose fryer, so operators whose menu extends well beyond chicken may find a conventional open fryer better matched to their needs. For sites requiring greater simultaneous capacity, larger-format alternatives are available within the range.

If you are working through the layout or electrical provisions for your kitchen, or want to discuss whether this output level matches your anticipated covers, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
