Some Basic Topics

o Head 4 head is 4 chicken cut in 8 pc each=32

o Pot, the place where the oil goes 12 ga vs 14 and 20 ga in competition

o Idle draw-the amount of energy to keep well at 200F

o Recoup- the time it takes after you drop product into the oil to get back to cook temp

o Soft finish-like KC originalo Crisp finish-like KC crispy

Pressure Fryers

Pressure Fryers

o Began producing in 1963o Outstanding field performance

• 30,000 produced• No known round pot failures

o Very easy to service and maintaino Controlled low pressure for faster cooking

at lower tempso Cold zone collects breading fall-off to

prolong shortening life

ALF-F/BLF-F Standard Features & Benefits

o Simple electromechanical time and temperature controls with integrated auto lift basket

o Heavy duty, proven single auto lift motor and mechanism

o Built in filter system with patented quick connect filter assembly

o Standard, full sized fry basket specifically designed for fried chicken programs

Simplifies operation, reduces purchase cost versus computer programmable controls, reduces overall cost of ownership when considering parts replacement costs

Provides reliably consistent finished products with minimal labor dedicated to the operation; single lift reduces purchase costs versus dual lift “French fryers” and reduces overall cost of ownership when considering parts replacement costs

Simplifies operators use of filter system by ensuring proper alignment, reducing the breakdown and needed replacement of shortening. Simplest docking system in the industry

Offers greater surface area for chicken pieces, ensuring shortening coverage around all pieces, reducing “skin pull off and whitespots” where pieces were stuck together (when smaller fry baskets are used)

● 304 Stainless Steel on all exterior

surfaces

● Over-temp shut down standard

•Round pot design

•Easy Upgrades with increased volume

Stainless steel last far longer with no rusting cleans easily and is sanitary

Over-temp shut down protects against dry firing of fryer without oil in the unit to protect against pot failure and potentially fires

More surface allows for a quicker re-coup of temperature and offers easier cleaning and oil circulation. No Hot spots and a larger cold zone.

Easy upgrade to larger fryer 14 to 18 lb with no learning curve as volume needs increase

Features and Benefits Continued

● Chef support available

Idle program for energy savings

●Power needs low

BKI offers support with over 50 years of fry experience to support your menu changes and department needs

ALF and BLF fryers have idle rates among the lowest in the industry at .43kw

47kw power rating allows for smaller breaker and energy use

Desired Finish

>Both units will produce a soft crunch finish. Pressure fryers by way of the physics used and the theory of how pressure cooks allows for a (“KFC original breading finish)

>Use of course grind breading will give a crispier finish

> Use of sodium marinades will give you a moister interior product with higher weight

>Moister breading or allowing the product to rest after breading will give you more of a batter dip effect

Pressure frying will give you more volume (weight) is selling by the pound.
