A high-performance Henny Penny pressure fryer can save your restaurant thousands of dollars a year in energy costs. These units feature efficient burner systems, low exhaust gas temperatures and automatic filtration between cook cycles to extend oil life. These features, combined with a narrow five square foot footprint, reduce floor space and cookline frontage to make your kitchen more efficient.
Henny Penny KFC Commercial pressure fryers are available in a wide range of capacities from two heads or 16 pieces to eight or more heads, which are ideal for restaurants that produce large quantities of fried items such as nuggets, tenders and fillets. The patented lid lock system is color coded to ensure staff safety, and the raised deck edge minimizes potential for oil splashes. An integrated filtration and return system pumps fried product back through the system for quick cleanup without extra pumps or pans, eliminating the need for hand-washing.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The most important factor in a Henny Penny pressure fryer’s performance is its ability to maintain an optimal oil temperature throughout the cook cycle. Most models operate at around 12 psi, although one manufacturer offers a customizable unit that operates at 14 psi to cook food slightly faster. A low psi setting also offers an additional safety fallback in case the unit experiences an emergency and is not able to reach its intended pressure level.
Other features that increase a pressure fryer’s efficiency include its shape, size and temperature controls. Some manufacturers offer round fry pots, which they claim provide uniform heat distribution and efficient energy use by limiting cold spots; while one competitor offers rectangular fry pots that it says have an advantage in terms of random tumbling and turbulence that promote more thorough and even cooking. Some models also come with onboard oil reservoirs that automatically top off the hot shortening when needed, saving staff from manually pouring liquid into a hot vat of frying oil. These tanks are available for both gas and electric models, so operators can choose the option that best fits their operation’s needs and budget.
