Your fryer filter might be letting more through than you think.
Filters are rated by the smallest particulate they can catch, measured in microns. The lower the number, the more they catch:
- Paper filters: 60–120 microns
- Performance pads: ~20 microns
- Masterfil®: ~0.5 microns
Everything a filter misses stays in your oil and breaks it down faster. Catch more, and your oil lasts longer.
