Cold Soak Procedure

Call out "hot water" when carrying hot water to the fryers. Failure to do so may result in minor burns.

  1. Dispose of the oil in the fryer.

  2. Fill the fryer with cleaning solution and let it sit overnight.

  3. Use the long-handled fryer brush or a blue scouring pad in an up and down motion (scour the sides of the kettle and the heating coils).

  4. Use the L-shaped brush to scrub between the heating coils and the sides of the fryer kettle.

  5. Place a three-gallon clear plastic bucket or a full sized meat pan under the drain valve.

  6. Use step 4 in the filter menu to drain the cold soak cleaning solution into the bucket or pan.

    NOTE: Use the salad cart to transport the bucket or pan if necessary.

  7. Discard the cold soak cleaning solution in the mop sink.

  8. Fill the double boiler bottom half full with hot tap water.

  9. Carefully pour the water into the fryer.

    NOTE: Use the salad cart for multiple trips with hot water.

  10. Repeat this procedure two or more times for the rinse water to reach the fryer’s fill line.

  11. Place a three-gallon clear plastic bucket or a full sized meat pan under the drain valve.

  12. Use step 4 in the filter menu to drain the hot water into the bucket or pan.
