I believe we do. Doing some googling I added "check the water heater thermostat" to my to do list.

I built a new house in California last year so a mixing valve set to 120 is mandated. Couple degree loss from the heater to the tap and I'm going off memory seems right. Thanks for the water heater concern but the point remains: if your hot tap is about the right temp for sous vide why are you waiting for a tiny puddle machine to heat up the water from cold?

55C is 131F. The mixing valve mixes in cold water because you can get Legionnaire's Disease from water held at like 115F in a tank.

I'm a rebel. I eat un-pasteurized meat.

That's real gross but a far different situation than "if you don't pasteurize your steak why even cook it?".

I just leave the lid off, but I haven't vizzled for more than a few hours with my Sansaire.

Cambros stack and I don't care how much electricity the cooker uses so it being insulated isn't important. I spent $11 on my cambro at a restaurant supply store. Someday I'll acquire critical thinking skills.

WhiteHowler posted:The meat was pretty solidly Medium I puddle at 52C, unbag, dry, sear hard in cast iron, then I put it on a cutting board, spread a pat of butter and hit it with a lot of black pepper before tenting with foil.

On a Cambro the wall is tilted out enough that clipping the Sansaire to it and letting it rest on the bottom works fine for me.

Might be worth gambling on the $229 tier which includes a prototype unit plus a retail unit. If the proto keeps working that's a good deal.

Grrl Anachronism posted:Does sous vide have any potential for dessert-making? That's really more my area of interest and these machines are so cool, but I'm a little lost at what kind of sweets they could help produce other than maybe like custards and puddings. I made a custard sous vide and then turned it in to ice cream the other night. You could probably temper chocolate in a sous vide bag.

The SVS Demi is a pile of poo poo. It was fine when the only other option was a $700 Polyscience unit, but that's not the case any more.

Test Pattern posted:OK. Should I worry about air in the headspace? IE: Do I want the attachment to evacuate a mason jar using my foodsaver? The air is bad because it will insulate a little bit. Vacuum would insulate even more. I wouldn't worry too much.

Keller pretty explicitly states that he ran butter through the immersion circulator. It's a terrible decision for us for a lot of reasons but he did it.

Did you sear afterwards? What temperature did you cook to?

Were they tough, or was the color wrong? I find if you want a sous vide steak to look red inside you need to let it breathe outside of the bag for a while before searing.

That's a chuck steak. It's more of a braising cut than what people conventionally call a steak. That's more of a 48hr cut than a 4hr cut.
