You can use chemical extinguishers but yeah then you have to shut down for clean up. The correct control for an enclosed grease fire is a tight-fitting lid, cut off the oxygen. (Wait for it to cool down properly before you take the lid off or it'll just catch fire again.)

A coworker's cat got killed this way a couple days ago. It ran out the door just as a big gust of wind came, and the door slammed on it. Just an awful freak accident.

I've seen them in commercial kitchens with a big lid you can lower on top of them from the side so that the flames aren't shooting at you if you start a fire.

Im pretty sure the change in color of the fog at the end of that video is the water based sprinklers going off. So that kitchen is closed for a bit either way now.

Lest we forget, the water inside those sprinkler systems is piped straight from the depths of satan’s bowels; it is a cruel amalgamation of liquid, rust, and whatever foul things grew in it since last it was flushed. I was there on the day they flushed the sprinklers in a building I used to work in. I’ve smelled some foul things in my life, especially working with marine life strandings. Dead sea turtles have a smell that makes even the mighty flee in terror as they weep between bouts of retching, and I came across that after I lived near the infamous Poo Pond on Kandahar Airfield (which was an active sewage pit that had been baking in the desert sun for over 10 years at that point). The smell of the sprinkler flush was beyond both dead sea turtles, and the sewage of thousands left to bake in the desert sun for over a decade. The liquid itself came out as a viscous black fluid, not unlike motor oil. The smell was more of an experience, and I happily went back outside to process dead lionfish. At least that smell would wash off easily

priznat posted:Looked like it was the fryer, do those have lids too? Possibly but probably not. Most places will just put a pan over the top to keep poo poo from falling into the oil overnight, if they even do that. Maybe try to smother it with a fire blanket? That fire is definitely "turn off the heat, activate the biggest fuckoff fire suppression you got, evacuate the building, and call the fire department" territory for me, but it's been a decade or two since I worked in a kitchen. If someone has more recent restaurant experience than me, I'd love to know if there's something they could have done.

I've seen commercial kitchens with big lids that can be lowered down over the deep fryers that are hinged on the sides. Clearly designed to make sure nothing falls in them overnight, but heavy enough that you can use them to put out a fire that has just started, and hinged so you don't have to reach across the flames and then push them towards yourself while lowering it.

Nocheez posted:Just catching up and this blew me away! Do you think maybe some of those "lost" Croatan's ancestors are alive and well in these communities? Nah, it's pretty well understood that they went to live with local Native groups. A different Native group told a later group of colonists how they killed a bunch of them. They were shown some artifacts to bolster the story. If there's any trace of the lost colony, it's in the DNA of the Native groups who lived in the area at the time. Whether any of it survives to this day, and whether we could identify it if it did is an open question.

And this goober takes volunteers to work for him for weeks on end! At the time he was even talking about taking hired help. Were they supposed to chop off their fingers to learn too? Don't know if my last post went through: He hired a new shipwright last april. YouTube apparently read this comment and it recommended the finger video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlovvsGVVJk Icon Of Sin posted:Lest we forget, the water inside those sprinkler systems That's not a water sprinkler system. You don't spray water on a grease fire, it's not "water" in the fire suppression system, because water is what literally what caused the grease explosion here. priznat posted:Don't those hoods have some kind of fire suppression Yes. You can see it in the red tank to the right at the start of the video. quote:or would that spray white crap all over so they would have to shut down the kitchen? Also yeah. Also-Known-As the "I'm Fired" button. That's why every single kitchen worker that has seen this video screams "throw a sheet pan on it!" Throwing water onto the grease fire caused it to explode, which was probably enough to melt the fire sensors in the hood and trigger the fire suppression gas to release. The fire probably went out immediately after that clip was cut...because the fire suppression built into the hood kicked in. There are a lot of folks that don't understand how this works: 350-450° oil, water sinks below oil water boils and turns to steam at 212° water instantly turns to 350-450° water....aka steam steam instantly expands, EXPLODES the OIL above it OUT INTO A GIANT MIST GIANT BALL OF MISTED OIL catches on fire, because the surface oil is *already* on fire. AKA GIANT loving OIL FUELED FIREBALL (we haven't even gotten in to how dangerous gas fryers are yet)

So a mates drilling company had an incident that identified a WPHS issue. A drill rig remote controller has the jaw release close to a movement control. Not something you want to accidentally thumb over. So a few beers on a saturday we came up with a prototype design to isolate this problem. And it's a SIMPLE fix which makes it even better. One of the prototypes test-fit after printing.  Got 3 other iterations printing now for best fit. Including full bank isolation. I'm helping for once! EDIT: Maybe a better angle

My coworker is a walking OSHA violation and I suspect heavy cocaine user and I had to explain to him today why my other coworkers think he's a crazy dangerous walking hazard and my boss exploded on him for repeatedly smashing a pallet jack into the wall. 4.5 hours with him felt like 12. He like, appreciated my honesty, bro. He called said boss today for 'freaking out' on him for telling him to put on a mask before we met with a client for a job. Something I have done for every single client I've met with since Covid started and he apparently, has not. Because "masks don't do anything bro, nobody else makes me wear it". loving kill me

Its likely that they left the fryer on without any oil in it for cleaning. The fire looks pretty low in the fryer. When you drop the grease it exposes the element and without anything to disperse the heat the element will almost immediately start smoking and eventually ignition will occur (as everything is covered in grease). The proper thing would be to cover with a sheet tray or fire blanket and then cut the gas at the wall. Small fires are not uncommon in commercial kitchens and Im really suprised these "chefs" responded the way they did. Its as much the other guys fault for not tackling the guy with the water on his way to a drat grease fire. If an Ansul suppression system goes off youre going to be shut for a while. The stuff gets in every possible crevice and refilling the system costs thousands. Its really there to stop total loss of your business and equipment.

The proper thing would be to cover with a sheet tray or fire blanket and then cut the gas at the wall. This is correct. You could tell with the bottom door of the fryer open that he was transferring the grease out to clean the fryer cavity and forgot to turn down the machine to do so. It's a common occurance and I'm disappointed to see them respond the way they did. My first job was in a fast food restaurant and I had a coworker who had the exact same thing happen to him when we were on shift. He too stood there like a jackass while a grease fire was building right in front of him. I took some salt that was nearby for fries and used that to prevent the grease fire from spreading since he was already cleaning the drat thing and the fire was still relatively small. The_Continental posted:If an Ansul suppression system goes off youre going to be shut for a while. The stuff gets in every possible crevice and refilling the system costs thousands. Its really there to stop total loss of your business and equipment. My manager at that time had worked in a store where the ansul system had been tripped. It's a disgusting substance that you don't want to be around and it contaminates everything that isn't commercial equipment. The store has to be shut while everything is cleaned out and all of your consumable materials that were exposed to the ansul needs to be disposed of (cups, lids, french fry sleeves, straws, et cetera). Glad I never saw that happen. (Source: my first job was at a Sonic Drive-In)
