Sous vide container + sous vide recommendations
-
There was some discussion on one of the live streams or in a different post about placing the product directly into the water and the type of sous vide. I believe there is a kind that draws water in heats it and propels it back out. And the other style is a exposed propeller and separate heating element to heat the water? The later was desired so a person didnt have to vac seal the meat.
Is there a way to determine which style any given unit is? I’ve done a little shopping here and there and it looks like I’d like to get a unit around 1000watt level.deanlorensen I have the type that sucks water in, heats it up and spits it out. Run my sausage naked, no bag, no problems. Elcheapo 1k unit from amazon

One is a all in one unit that holds the water and has the heating element and recirculation pump build in. These are for more of a restaurant application and are very spendy. The other is just the heater and pump in one unit and can be mounted on any type of vessel that suits your need. they may very in size and shape but all do the same thing.

What are you all using for a container for finishing your snack sticks/summer sausage with sous vide. Im looking at getting one in the next few weeks and trying to figure what container Im gonna use when I dump in 25 lbs of snack sticks + water.
Im mainly gonna be finishing snack sticks/summer sausage in 25lb or less batches. So Im thinking I’ll probably be trying to heat 3-7gallons of water? Any suggestion which unit/size I will want?
deanlorensen If you are still looking, I picked this up at COSTCO online. Its the Anova Sous Vide and container for 199. I have had it a few weeks and really like it. I have only done 6 lb batches so far, but believe 10 would be fine.

I’ve been contemplating getting a sous vide cooker for sometime now. Just saw this deal at the local Costco today. Seems like a pretty good deal for $160 with the container and all. I’ve seen several people post on the ANOVA and was curious some of your opinions about this set up.

Surg I am happy with mine. That is about $30 cheaper than what I paid online. The heating element comes apart easily for cleaning, twist the stainless tube and it pulls off. The only thing with this unit I would point out is the impeller is plastic. So far it has not been a problem, as long as you are careful when taking the housing off for cleaning. I do my summer sausage and sticks directly in the water without placing in bags and have not had issues. It has been really good for cooking meals. I really don’t use the wifi for sausages, but have for meals.

Surg a good thing about a COSTCO purchase is if you are not happy with it, returns are easy.
