How should I test oil-temperature recovery on a commercial fryer?

Record oil temperature before loading, immediately after loading, and during continuous frying, including recovery time. Before comparing suppliers, fix the product specification, target throughput, and operating condition used for the test. During FAT, use calibrated instruments where relevant and keep the original readings with the acceptance record. The purchase specification should state the method, tolerance, sample quantity, and treatment of nonconforming results. Also confirm cleaning access, routine maintenance points, and the parts that operators must remove between production runs during normal operation.
