I would just leave it in solution and watch it reach desired temp,or check meat with it periodically to see if right temp. I wouldn't leave it in the meat but would the solution, but not any hire temp than the Thermonitor can reach.

It depends on what size of item or itemsYou're frying. Your best bet is to fill it withWater to judge the amt of oil you need toUse

I am new to the deep frying thing, so could you recommend the "right" oil? Thanks!

According to Google..490 degrees. It should be fine for deep frying. I have not tried it, so I am not speaking from "experience"

375 degrees. Using the lid keeps the temperature high and whatever your maximum oil limit is in your fryer minus it by 2 cups. The fryer then gets hotter quicker.

It will take the highest heat that any organic oil will handle...has a nice coconut fragrance when frying. hope this will help you.

The same oil can be reused in the BDF500XL Smart Fryer™. We do not recommend keeping it in the fryer for extended period as this is not an air-tight storage container and the oil can go bad.

Directly from the ScanPan website: http://www.scanpan.eu/shop/iq-fry-pan-1/11-28-cm-4 they state that it is overproof to 260 °C. (260 °C = 500 °F) You can check at the website for any other technical data.

I have removed the basket on occasion and fried foods however, just make sure you use a slotted spoon that can withstand the high temperature of the oil

No, I empty my oil about every three months, it depends on what I cooked in it. I love mine, I purchased one for my two grandsons, ages 19 and 20, they cook everything it theirs. that's what I like about it too is you don't waste the oil because you don't have to change it so often, keeping the lid down while it is frying also helps because it keeps the odor from your kitchen and it helps to cook more even and fast. hope this helps

I bought it because many people mentioned that they used it for quick frying. You have to decide what you believe are the dangers with the nonstick and "high" temps, and what temps trigger those dangers.

You season it in hot oil...leave it in the hot oil to season for about 20 minutes or so....use it hot, never begin with a cold iron you will never make any

Collette, wash it out and dry it well................fill it almost to the top and bake it in the oven at 325 for a hour or so. let it cool and throw the oil away. Wipe it dry and it should be good to go.

Sorry, I don't know. My limit so far is only 5 hours, but I was using it only about half full and it was certainly not overcooked. I would think it would be OK. If I were trying it the first time, I might add a little extra fluid so that it did not cook dry.

Would take a very large amount of oil. .We never tried because we have a Deep Fryer. If you want to put that much oil in a 2-1/2" deep skillet and heat it,I would think you are asking for possible spill,burn,and a large mess if it spills. Cheapest deep fryer will fix this problem.

I leave my oil in the fryer I strain it and put it back in the fryer or you could put it in the refrigerator

Although, there's a small gap between the oil canister & the rather thin stainless-steel body, it's not cool when touched - specially when deep frying.Touching the outside - while deep frying - may not singe your fingers (e.g.) like when you touch a kettle while boiling water - is still hot.So, just don't touch it outside while deep-frying or after you had just used it (and had unplugged the unit).I use peanut oil & it takes about 2 hours or more for the oil to cool down...then, you can touch it all you like!!!
