			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.distexblog.com/399/fries/" rel="attachment wp-att-401"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-401" title="Fries" src="http://www.distexblog.com/wp-content/uploads//2011/12/Fries-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>Have you ever experienced a sudden shut off of your fryer? Do you think that the fryer is defective, when it’s not firing up after consistently frying 2 to 3 batches of full product? <strong>Fryers also need to recover!</strong> Recovery time is very important for equipment being <span style="color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24px;">heavily </span>used. Here are a few tips about recovery time and minor troubleshooting.</p>
<p><span id="more-399"></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Before starting, please note that all fryers must be installed by a trained/licensed professional. Here are 4 essential elements that you need to remember in order to keep your fryer healthy:</p>
<p>1) <a href="http://distex.ca/royal-range.html">Royal Range</a> recommends to set the maximum temperature at 350 degrees to avoid the Hi-Limit switch* to trip and the pilot burner to frequently shut off.</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-402 aligncenter" style="border-style: initial; border-color: initial; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: #eeeeee;" title="burner" src="http://www.distexblog.com/wp-content/uploads//2011/12/burner-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></p>
<p>2) DO NOT put basket after basket into the fryer tank. You need to allow the fryer to recover after finishing every batch. Recovery means you allow the oil to heat up again to reach the set temperature before putting another basket. Failure to do so will only make the tube burners inside the fryer get very hot, causing the Hi-Limit switch to trip and the pilot burner to shut off. If any of these occurs, please allow the tube burner to cool down for at least 30 minutes before firing up again.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.distexblog.com/399/fryer_by_sat609/" rel="attachment wp-att-403"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-403" title="Fryer_by_sat609" src="http://www.distexblog.com/wp-content/uploads//2011/12/Fryer_by_sat609-224x300.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>3) If the gas valve (black knob) is not turning, please do not force it. There are 2 possible problems. First if the thermopile is too hot, the knob will not turn; allow it to cool down for at least 3 to 4 minutes. Second if the pilot switch is off, the knob will not turn.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.distexblog.com/399/knob/" rel="attachment wp-att-404"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-404" title="Knob" src="http://www.distexblog.com/wp-content/uploads//2011/12/Knob-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>4) All units must be levelled to keep the flames from coming out of the flu, and in order to have even heat, so level your fryers!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.distexblog.com/399/level/" rel="attachment wp-att-405"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-405" title="Level" src="http://www.distexblog.com/wp-content/uploads//2011/12/Level-300x255.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>* Hi-Limit switch is installed as a standard safety feature</p>
<p>If you are still experiencing problems with your <a href="http://distex.ca/royal-range.html">Royal Range fryer</a>, please contact <a href="http://distex.ca/">Distex</a> service department technicians at 1 800 567-3620</p>

<p>If you like chewing on ice, then you just might have pagophagia! The desire to chew ice is considered to be a form of pica, a medical problem where people have a strong urgency to munch on substances that have no nutritional value.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span id="more-278"></span></p>
<p>In moderation, chewing ice can be quite satisfactory and refreshing, and manufacturers like Scotsman jumped on the bandwagon back in 1981 by creating a chewable ice form called the nugget. Unlike traditional ice that will damage your teeth and sometimes even your gums, the nugget resembles compacted snow flakes and is much softer to chomp.</p>
<p>A traditional ice machines freeze water on a plate, forming a substance as hard as a jawbreaker. In a nugget ice machine, an auger sits in the center of a refrigerated cylinder filled with water. As ice crystals begin to form, the auger pushes the wet, pliable ice through holes comparable to those in a meat grinder.</p>
<p>&#8220;We knew that it was the right consistency&#8221; for easily exiting the device &#8212; &#8220;crunchy but not hard,&#8221; says Mr. Utter, creator of the nugget ice. &#8220;We didn&#8217;t really know it was going to be such a hit.&#8221;*</p>
<p>Looking for an original Christmas gift? Consider getting a nugget ice machine for your loved one, just like the singer Amy Grant:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;For some people, going to a restaurant for the perfect ice is too much trouble. A few years ago, the singer Amy Grant wanted to find the perfect Christmas gift for her husband, Mr. Gill, the country-music star. She had a Scotsman machine costing several thousand dollars installed in their garage in Nashville.&#8221;</em></p>
