Buffalo Twin Tank Induction Fryer 2x3kW

The Buffalo Twin Tank Induction Fryer provides two independent frying tanks, each powered by a 3kW induction element. Unlike conventional fryers that rely on gas burners or immersed resistive elements, induction heating transfers energy directly into the tank, meaning the oil heats quickly and the surrounding surfaces remain relatively cool during operation. Each tank operates independently, so different products can be fried at different temperatures simultaneously without cross-contamination of flavour or cooking medium.

In a working kitchen, the practical advantage of induction frying becomes clear during a busy service. The oil recovers temperature quickly after product is loaded, which helps maintain consistent results across consecutive batches. Because the heat is generated within the tank rather than from an external flame or element, there is less wasted energy radiating into the kitchen environment, which can also contribute to a more comfortable working temperature at the frying station.

From an operational standpoint, this unit offers several day-to-day advantages worth noting:

• Independent tanks allow separate cooking of allergen-sensitive items or different product types
• Induction heating reduces idle energy consumption compared with traditional resistive element fryers
• Cool-touch exterior surfaces during operation reduce burn risk at a busy station
• The temperature range of 60°C to 190°C gives flexibility across different frying applications
• Countertop format keeps the footprint manageable in tighter kitchen layouts

Installation is straightforward for a countertop electric unit — a suitable power supply is required to support the combined 6kW draw across both tanks, so it is worth confirming your existing circuit capacity before installation. There are no gas or water connections required, and no ventilation ducting is needed beyond whatever extraction is already in place above your frying station. The unit weighs just over 22kg, so it can be repositioned without difficulty if your kitchen layout changes.

This fryer suits small to medium operations — cafés, small restaurant kitchens, food-to-go counters, and similar environments where frying volume is moderate and countertop space is at a premium. It is not designed to carry the throughput of a large-capacity floor-standing fryer in a high-volume kitchen. For sites with heavier continuous frying demand, a higher-capacity model would be worth considering.
