Micro carbon fibers and particulate matter from previous cooks, over time, can produce a “dirty cook,” and affect the over taste of foods being fried.

Proper cleaning of fryer baskets, tubs and heating elements is important as is monitoring oil quality over time. Out team of trained professionals will monitor cooking oil quality over time and make recommendations for filtering or complete change out when necessary.
