The Oil Tester App ensures oil quality while extending the life of your cooking oil to reduce costs.
Cooking oil costs continue to increase year on year. For every food business this now represents a significant cost that needs to be managed effectively, while always ensuring a consistently safe standard of cooking oil quality.
Reduce costs, maintain oil quality
The Cooking Oil Tester works with the Kelsius Oil Pro App which captures cooking oil data, accessible from any web-enabled device:
- Cut cooking oil costs by up to 35% while ensuring you serve only the best quality food by maintaining your oil in its best condition.
- Reduce cooking oil costs by extending the life of the oil while maintaining oil quality.
- Eliminate unnecessary oil changes and reduce your operating costs.
- Reduce your CO₂ emissions by eliminating unnecessary oil collection and oil disposal.
More efficiencies, easier audits, no paperwork
- Providing an objective measure of your oil quality on one site or across all sites.
- Oil data that drives operational efficiencies across all sites.
- Providing a simple solution for storing waste disposal documents.
- Easy to access and easy to audit waste disposal records.
- Eliminates paper records and paper record storage costs.
How it works
The Cooking Oil Tester from Kelsius is a portable measuring instrument that quickly detects the aging of frying oil. The TPM value (total polar material) reflects the deterioration of edible oil due to high temperature during the frying process.
The tester uses the change in capacitance value to determine the TPM content. The Cooking Oil Tester:
- is fast, safe and efficient. It detects the content of polar compounds in edible oils (TPM value).
- accurately indicates the oil temperature and corrects the accuracy of the self-contained thermometer of the frying pan.
- can be used in high oil temperature environments and is suitable for quality inspections of various fried edible oils.
Total Polar Materials (TPM)
Edible oils used for frying undergo a series of physical and chemical changes during high-temperature frying, which produce substances that are harmful to health.
Total Polar Materials (TPM) is a method used to determine the degradation of frying oil. TPM refers to all products present in frying oil due to oxidation processes, including free fatty acids, products of low molecular weight decomposition, and polymerised substances. The EU has adopted a value of 25 to 27% as the acceptable upper limit for fats and oils.
Individual customers may choose to set their own values for upper and lower limits. Limits may vary by oil type.
