My oil is foaming excessively

4 E

Have you filtered or skimmed recently?

2 A

Recommended Solution

Skim regularly to remove particles – if you don’t they will carbonise, potentially produce carcinogenic acrylamides, taint your oil and shorten its life.

Restart

Is the fryer overfilled with oil?

2 E

Recommended Solution

Don’t overfill the fryer with oil – this will result in too great a drop in temperature. Large temperature swings will degrade your oil prematurely. If the temperature drops too much then the food will absorb too much oil.

Restart

Check the thermostat, is the oil overheating?

5 G

Recommended Solution

Fry at the correct temperature - too hot and you’ll shorten the life of your oil, too low and oil will be absorbed into the food, producing soggy, unhealthy results. Please refer to the Prep Frying Guide for the correct frying temperatures.

Discard oil.
