Can you leave the oil in the fryer to use for next time or should it be taken out and stored in a container for later use?

I did leave it in for a week without any problems but I think longer than that should be put in a container.

I use solid oils and leave in at all times. About once a year, or if I cook fish, I strain the grease and put it back after I have cleaned the unit.

You can store the oil in the fryer, but it's recommended you filter the oil before storing it, so I filter it back into it's original bottle and leave it there instead of pouring it back into the fryer for storage.

No, you do not have to remove the oil between uses, I leave it in there indefinitely, and continue to fill it as needed

Always clean the fryer after use. Carefully pour the oil into a glass jar to store and strain out any residual food that may be in the oil.

We used the same oil a second time, because it was done on the same week. I put it through a small colander to take the solid particles out. We have not used our fryer since, so I will probably not use the same oil again, although we did store it in its original bottle. My husband will use it in his diesel truck as fuel.

We have also tried this, and left the oil in the fryer for about more than ten days and reused it several times during that period and no problem has occured. I am not a health expert and I do not want to cause any problems for anyone. All I am saying is we have done it and have not experienced any problems yet.

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

I only use my sprayer occasionally as well and leave the oil in it. I have two of these sprayers; one for olive oil and the other for vegetable oil and store them in a closed cupboard.

I don't have this one but what I do with the deep fryer I use is buy all white paper towels, line a strainer and sit it over a large pan. I strain the oil into the pan and at the same time clean the inside of the fryer out. I usually reuse the oil until it starts to make the food taste oily (about 7-10 times reuse depending on what you fry).

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

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!!!

I store my in the refrigrator. I'm a chemist and oil doesn't expand like water. My personal opinion is that you should not have a problem. Upon getting them, you could take a small portion out and test them a couple of days in the freezeer. they should last quite a while in the refrigerator though. Also, the manufacture might help. I love this product. hope you do.

Quite frankly, I don't know. When I fry I move everything outdoors. I don't like the lingering odors. I would imagine the heat from the oil would transmit pretty well to the exterior surface since there is not much space between the oil resevoir and the exterior housing.

Yes. The oil in it will get solid in the fridge so I take it out about 15 minutes before I need it.

I wouldn't put it in the fridge, even if it has melted. When I put my coconut oil in the fridge, it was really hard to scoop any out.

yes, that is correct. Almost anything containing type of oil should be stored in the refrigerator after opening. Some exceptions are coconut oil and to a degree olive oil, as these are more stable and will not go rancid as easily as many other oils.

No you have to put the oil after you receive it. If you don't use it in over a week the oil will leak out. So if you are not going to use it regularly drain the oil

No, it is normally used with the lid open, although the instructions say it can be used with it closed for softer results. I use peanut oil several times before I throw it out and close the lid between sessions to keep the oil confined and smell from other cooking is much more obvious.

Strain cooled oil and put into bottle/jug and refrigerate. I never used it for more than 30 days. You might contact the company producing the oil and ask to be SAFE.

It depends on what size of item or items You're frying. Your best bet is to fill it with Water to judge the amt of oil you need to Use
