Belshaw Brothers 616BT manual Frying Tips

To fry yeast-raised donuts, place donuts on the fry screen and slowly lower the screen into the fryer. With the donut stick, turn the donuts over to fry the top side. Remove the fry screen and donuts when the donuts are completely fried by lifting up the fry screen with the donuts on top of it. Immediately place on or over a tray to catch dripping shortening.

WARNING

Hot shortening will drip off the fry screens, causing a slip hazard. To avoid serious injury or loss of life, be very careful and immediately clean up any drips.

WARNING

To avoid serious burns, be careful of hot shortening dripping from the fry screens.

Do not touch hot shortening and

immediately clean up spills and drips.

8.Continue supplying shortening to the kettle as required. Keep the kettle filled up to the “Oil Level” marks on the side.

9.When you are done frying donuts, move the thermostat knob counter-clockwise as far as it will go.

Frying Tips

1.Use a high quality hydrogenated shortening.

2.Store your supply of cooking shortening at room temperature.

3.To prolong the life of the shortening, do not keep shortening at high temperature if the fryer is not being used.

4.Drain and strain shortening periodically. Several layers of cheesecloth will do a good job of filtering.

5.Keep the fryer and screens clean.

6.Maintain shortening at the proper level in the fryer. Add fresh shortening to keep the level at the “Oil Level” marks stamped on the kettle sides.

7.Add at least 15% fresh shortening to your kettle daily.

8.Discard shortening as soon as it tends to bubble or foam during frying.

9.At least once a day, cool a small sample of shortening from the fryer and taste it to see if it has picked up a foreign or rancid taste.
