During deep frying, the heat that is generated by the appliance is transmitted by the fat to the food you are cooking. When this fast cooking method is employed, a tasty crust is formed around the cooked food. The deep frying temperature range lies between 160 and 180°C. The maximum temperature is 190°C. A higher temperature would result in a consistency change in the deep frying fat or oil.

The two marks on the rear of the deep fryer indicate the maximum and minimum levels for the deep-frying oil or fat. The oil/fat level should always be between the two marking lines (Fig. 5). The food to be fried should always be completely covered by the deep-frying oil or fat; if this is impossible, turn the food after half the frying time.

Any water contained in the food sinks to the bottom of the Gaggenau Electric Fryer into so-called cold oil zone (see 1 in Fig. 6). This prevents the oil frothing over. Also, any particles of food which break away during frying fall through the basket and sink to this cold zone.

The lower temperature in this zone prevents the oil breaking down and considerably prolongs the time for which the oil or fat can be used.

The foaming edge (see 2 in Fig. 6) serves to limit the foam that occurs during deep frying.

Numerous safeguards serve to protect you. Turn the “Temperature" knob back to 0 if the (limiter) symbol should appear on the display.

Possible causes:

Please inform your local Gaggenau after-sales service if the (limiter) symbol does not go off after a few minutes.

No fat/oil in the deep frying tub or not enough.

The deep fryer has been switched on with the tubular heating element tilted out.

The (limiter) symbol goes off as soon as the temperature on the heating element drops below a critical value. Pour fat/oil into the deep frying tub. The appliance can then be easily operated again.

VF 230 specifications

The Gaggenau VF 230 is a premium wine cabinet that represents the pinnacle of wine storage technology, designed for connoisseurs and collectors alike. This meticulously engineered appliance not only showcases a refined aesthetic but also incorporates advanced features that ensure optimal conditions for wine preservation.

One of the standout characteristics of the Gaggenau VF 230 is its temperature control capabilities. It operates with a dual-zone system, allowing users to maintain two separate environments within the same cabinet, essential for storing different types of wine. The upper zone can be set between 5°C and 20°C, ideal for whites and sparkling wines, while the lower zone accommodates reds, maintaining a consistent temperature range of 10°C to 20°C. This flexibility is vital for ensuring that each wine is served at its ideal drinking temperature.

In addition to temperature regulation, the VF 230 incorporates a state-of-the-art humidity control system. This feature is critical for preserving cork integrity, as excessive dryness can cause corks to shrink, leading to oxidation and spoilage. The humidity level within the cabinet is carefully monitored and maintained between 50% and 80%, creating a stable environment that protects the wine from undesirable fluctuations.

The design of the VF 230 emphasizes both functionality and elegance. Its exterior is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, while the interior features natural beech wood shelves that gently cradle each bottle, minimizing vibrations that can disturb sediment. The shelves are adjustable, providing versatility for varying bottle sizes, and the soft-close mechanism ensures a smooth, silent operation, enhancing user experience.

Lighting is another key feature of the Gaggenau VF 230. It utilizes an LED lighting system that illuminates the interior without emitting heat, which can negatively affect the wines. The lighting can be adjusted to showcase the collection beautifully while preserving the integrity of the wine.

Furthermore, the VF 230 is equipped with advanced filtering systems to keep the air inside the cabinet free of impurities and odors. This is critical for ensuring that the wine does not absorb unwanted scents, which could compromise its flavor.

In summary, the Gaggenau VF 230 wine cabinet combines cutting-edge technology with luxurious design, offering wine lovers an exceptional solution for preserving their prized collections. With its dual-zone temperature control, humidity management, elegant shelving, adjustable LED lighting, and air filtration, the VF 230 is the ultimate choice for those who appreciate wine at its finest.
