Features
Allows you to set the oil temperature according to the ingredients you are frying. You can achieve the ideal crispness and browning for various foods, from delicate vegetables to meats. Prevents undercooking or burning.
The temperature adjustment function, supported by a Germany-made EGO thermostat, allows for precise control over the oil temperature. This ensures that various foods can be fried at their optimal temperatures, resulting in perfectly crispy and evenly cooked results. Precise temperature control is essential for consistent frying.
A function that alerts you when the set frying time has elapsed. This prevents overcooking and ensures consistent results every time. Allows you to multitask without worrying about burning your food.
The 60-minute timer function alerts you when the set frying time has elapsed, preventing overcooking and ensuring consistent results every time. This feature allows you to multitask without worrying about burning your food, making the frying process more convenient and efficient. It helps maintain consistent quality.
Displays the current oil temperature, allowing you to monitor and maintain the optimal temperature for frying. Helps prevent temperature fluctuations that can affect the quality of the fried food. Easier to obtain perfectly crispy food.
This model does not have a dedicated oil temperature display function. Users need to monitor the temperature using external thermometers or rely on the thermostat settings. The absence of a display makes it slightly more challenging to maintain the ideal frying temperature, requiring more attention from the user.
Equipped with a filter to remove food scraps and impurities from the oil during frying. This keeps the oil cleaner for longer, reducing unpleasant odors and extending the life of the oil. You can fry food in a pleasant environment.
This deep fryer does not include a built-in filter function. Without a filter, food scraps and impurities can accumulate in the oil, potentially affecting the taste and quality of fried foods. Regular oil changes and manual filtering are necessary to maintain optimal performance and extend the oil's lifespan.
Allows you to check the frying process without opening the lid. This prevents oil splattering and helps maintain a consistent oil temperature. Safer and more efficient frying.
This model does not feature a lid with a viewing window. Monitoring the frying process requires opening the lid, which can cause oil splattering and temperature fluctuations. The absence of a viewing window makes it less convenient to observe the food without interrupting the cooking process.
A function with a cool zone at the bottom of the fryer where food scraps collect. This prevents the scraps from burning and keeps the oil cleaner for longer. Reduces unpleasant odors and extends oil life.
The large cold zone at the bottom of the fryer prevents food scraps from burning, keeping the oil cleaner for longer and reducing unpleasant odors. This feature significantly extends the life of the oil and ensures that fried foods maintain their optimal flavor without being tainted by burnt particles. It contributes to better-tasting results.
A function where the power cord is magnetically attached to the deep fryer. If the cord is tripped over or pulled, it will detach easily from the deep fryer body without tipping over the unit. Makes for safer operation.
This model does not include a magnetic breakaway power cord. Without this safety feature, there is a higher risk of accidentally pulling the fryer off the counter if the cord is tripped over. Extra caution should be taken to position the fryer in a safe location to prevent accidents and potential injuries.
