FILTERING PROCEDURE WHEN USING SOLID SHORTENING
1.Follow the fat melt procedure discussed in the INSTRUCTION manual supplied with your fryer.
WARNING: Do not set a complete block of solid shortening on top of an electric fryer's heating elements. Doing this may damage the elements and increase the potential for shortening flash fire. If solid shortening is to be used in an electric fryer, remove the baskets and crumb screen(s), pack the bottom of the tank completely with solid shortening, lower the elements and then pack the shortening COMPLETELY around over top of the elements. Lay crumb screen(s) in the tank on top of the packed shortening. Follow the Fat Melt instructions in the ER Fryer installation & operation manual. Once all shortening has been melted and the fryer has met the set temperature, fill baskets and resume frying.
