Why this free standing fryer earns its place
The FriFri Touch 422 high-power version is a twin-tank fryer built for kitchens where speed is part of the offering. Two separate 15-litre tanks mean you can run different menu items at different temperatures simultaneously—no compromise between what you want to fry and how many temperatures you need. The intuitive 4.3" touchscreen controls 24 programmed menu items; staff learn quickly and stay consistent across all service periods. The real difference here is power: at 30 kW, this model recovers temperature faster after heavy batches, meaning you can keep plating fries or battered items without the cooking-speed trade-off that slows other fryers down.
What actually saves time is the adaptive cooking feature. Rather than guessing whether a larger batch needs longer or leaving it to chance, the fryer adjusts cooking times automatically based on what you're frying. The result is consistency: no more overcooked second-half batches or undercooked edge pieces. For operations where timing is life—festival catering, high-speed takeaways, banqueting—this matters. Pair it with the optional LiftFri automatic basket lift, and your team can run the fryer safely at pace.
Oil life is one of the biggest invisible costs in any frying operation. The FriFri Oil Assistant tracks oil quality in real time and suggests when to filter, even mid-service. The optional xFri system lets you hot-filter without breaking the service: drain, filter, resume in under five minutes. The energy management dashboard gives you 8-hour, 24-hour, 7-day and 28-day analysis so you can spot when consumption creeps up—often a sign that oil or heating elements need attention.
