Filter Media Note:
• A reusable Stainless Steel Filter Screen is standard for the GBF‐50 fryer
‐ wash a soiled screen in sink, using ONLY
clean hot water and a stiff bristle brush ... DO NOT
use soaps or cleaners. Shake off excess water and blot dry
with clean paper wipes. Ideally, screen should be allowed to dry overnight before using.
• Filter Paper
‐ remove soiled paper media and discard. Replace with one (1) fresh sheet of properly sized filter
paper. Available through Giles dealers/distributors: P/N 65871.
Stainless Steel Filter Screen
With proper use and care, this sustainable, reusable, filter screen should have a long service life. However, it
should be replaced if it becomes torn, punctured, frayed or if the silicone edge gasket becomes significantly
damaged.
When filtering oil, proper use of a suitable filter aid, such as Giles Filter Powder, is essential for proper filtering
and reconditioning of used cooking oil.
