Sous Vide suggestions and questions- 25lb Batches
-
I have the Vacmaster SV1 that Walton’s used to carry. Combined with a 33 quart Coleman party cooler that lkrfletcher turned me onto, it makes a solid sous vide combo for finishing sausage. My tap water is 160 degrees, so I usually just fill the cooler out of the sink and set the SV to 170. About 10 minutes and it is up to temp. There are no bells and whistles, blue tooth or wifi. Just set it and go.

Unrelated to sous vide but that is kinda dangerously high, no?

Yes it is, I would not recommend it with children in the house.

Grimpuppy that’s some hot tap water! Why is your tap water so hot? 130-135 is about the normal range

I like to have hot water available without having to heat it up in a pot I guess.

Ordered an Anova Pro. Thanks for the help guys.

I use the anova sous vide machine I got at costco. I do 20 lb. batches of snack sticks and summer sausage and they both come out great. I use a cooler I have rigged up to hold the unit and I start with hot water around 155 to 160 degrees. My target temp. is usually 152 and by the time I take the product out of the smoker and vacuum bag it it has cooled some so when it is all put in the water bath the temp is pretty close. A little warmer is better than a little cooler so the machine does’nt have to work so hard to get back up to temp.

You will not regret it

kyle Yes. I had to make one. The original lid held the sousvide machine up to high. I used heavy plexiglass and then cover it with a towel to help with loss.

I used my cooler sous vide cooler last night. Love the time savings. 140 to 175 in 50 minutes.

FYI - the Anova Sous Vide Precision Cooker Pro is currently on ebay at $219.99

Sam’s Club has the same one for same price. I’m considering it. The Weston one I have works fine though.
