It operates on a single large tank divided for dual-basket use, allowing different products to be cooked simultaneously without cross-contamination of flavours — useful in any kitchen with a varied fried menu.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn practice, the fryer performs reliably across the kind of continuous demand found in pub kitchens, canteens, and mid-sized restaurant operations. The 12kW heating element supports reasonable recovery times between batches, meaning oil temperature drops less sharply after loading and returns to temperature quickly enough to keep service moving. It is not positioned as a high-volume output fryer, but for steady, consistent frying through a lunch or evening service it handles the workload well.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin baskets allow separate cooking of different products at the same time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHinged elements lift clear of the tank, making cleaning and draining straightforward\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel construction throughout holds up under daily commercial use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree standing installation gives flexibility in kitchen layout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraightforward controls reduce training time for kitchen staff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a suitable three-phase or high-amperage single-phase electrical supply — this is worth confirming with your electrician before ordering, as the power draw is significant. The unit should be positioned with adequate clearance for ventilation and positioned under or near a canopy extraction system in line with kitchen ventilation regulations. Consider the floor space footprint carefully in tighter kitchens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fryer suits operations with a regular but not exceptionally high demand for fried food — a pub serving food throughout the day, a school or workplace canteen, or a small to mid-sized restaurant kitchen. For sites running very high volumes or requiring continuous back-to-back output, a heavier-duty model with a larger tank or higher power rating may be worth considering. Equally, for smaller operations, a countertop fryer may be sufficient without the floor space commitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are unsure whether this model is the right fit for your service volume or kitchen setup, the team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buffalo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58198425239934,"sku":"HU198","price":1008.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1753\/9017\/files\/hu198_npi25-2.jpg?v=1791820115","url":"https:\/\/www.advantage-catering-equipment.co.uk\/products\/buffalo-free-standing-electric-fryer-20ltr","provider":"Advantage Catering Equipment","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
