We used refined Soya oil, this has never happened before, the oil is new was put in fresh yesterday and was fine during service. Anyone know what the deal is?

    It’s cold, or someone dropped a load of flour in it

    Did you use a different brand than the one on the right? My first thought is that it turned cloudy because maybe it got cold last night and it has a different anti foaming agent than the one on the right. Alternatively, there is very fine particulate matter or liquid from something you fried last night and it became suspended and therefore cloudy once it cooled.

  3. We use Tasty Fry for our fryers and it looks EXACTLY like the oil on the left when it is fresh from the jug/the oil is fresh and cold.

    Is it colder in your kitchen that usual?

    Sometimes the warehouses will send you a jug of shortening mixed in with your normal oil jugs as a mistake, happened once to me. But it should still liquify if the pilot was on hmm

    This is color reversion. It’s normal for soy oil, but make sure the food tastes normal after frying.

  7. Turn it on and it’ll clarify right away. Some fats cloud when they’re cool.

    Must be cold where you are. That’s all, fire it up it’s good

    Weird. Yeah, i’d guess pilot light was on for the right side and left just got a bit murky. Couldve gotten colder than the other side an denatured but i doubt that. I assume you smelled it and it didn’t smell rank; i’d light it up and see how it looks and cooks. Lotsa people say the whole “when in doubt, throw it out” but i also don’t like needless waste.

    Pilot light went out and the oil began to cool.

    Thats the difference between shortening and oil. What you have there on the left is shortening.

    That looked like sysco’s creamy fryer oil. Those look like that from the get go in the container before you even pour it in, once the fryer is started it would go clear gradually onces the temps gets up.

    Turn it on and it should clear up (cold days coming in). If it doesn’t, toss it.

    what’s temperature of oil on left and right pans ?

    are we looking at theoretically the same oil ?

    are both pans filled at the same time and stayed overnight ?

    have then been filled from the same bottle ?

    Amazing how restaurants are allowed to reuse this mess over and over and over again 🤮
