FAQs
1. How does the VITO Oil Filtration System Save me so much money?
As you deep-fry particles of food are left in your fryer (batter, breading, even proteins). This debris continues to cook, eventually turning into CARBON a known carcinogenic (an item related to cancer development). Carbon along with byproducts of frying remain in your oil causing it to break down more rapidly generating bad flavor, oil discolouration and eventually smoke. Removing the food from the oil on a consistent basis through microfiltering stops the cooking process and formation of unwanted by products such as carbon which rob you of cooking oil life and have a negative effect on the food you serve.
The benefits are all positive; your foods will taste better, they will be much healthier to eat and you’ll significantly prolong the life of your oil while serving a consistently better product. Our customer report 40% to 50% longer oil life when used as recommended.
2. Will VITO Oil Filtration work in my kitchen?
VITO is amazing at maintaing any oil or shortening you use such as: Vegetable OIL, Canola OIL (trans fat free or not), Sunflower OIL, Shortening, Beef Drippings, FryMax and any other hybrid frying liquids.
VITO is also happy to filter fryers powered by Gas, Propane, and Electricity.
3. What sizes do the VITO Oil Filtration Systems come in?
We offer 2 sizes of VITO Filtering units to accommodate different filtration needs.
VITO 50 ideal for one to two standard fryers, frying ligther fare such as fries where you are not generating large amounts of sediment. Chip trucks, fine dining establishements, food courts, sushi places all love how VITO performs.
VITO 80 is the go-to model when you have two or more fryers of any size. Frying a mix of foods generating heavier sediment demands a second the stage of filtration and 60% extra power Germany built right into the VITO 80. Kitchens with banks of 2-8 fryers, 35-80 lb capacity rely on the VITO 80 in over 100 countries around the world.
4. Why is this better then other oil filtering units?
This product is so simple and safe to use with no need to transfer the hot oil from your fryer to a cumbersome filtering device and than back to your fryer. This will cut down on kitchen related accidents and time.
However the most significant difference is the filtering process itself. The VITO uses pressure to force the oil through our microfilter as opposed to gravity which other systems use. This pressure enables the use of a much finer filter medium which captures more suspended sediment and carbon than any other filtering product on the market. In fact one of our favorite demo’s is to put a VITO in after you’ve already filtered to show you what you didn’t get!.
