Anova Culinary ANTC01 Sous Vide Cooker Cooking container, Holds Up to 16L of Water, With Removable Lid and Rack

In a nutshell, Use inexpensive weights to hold anything down, not the expensive ones. As the title implies, don't waste your time. Just use something cheaper and quicker. It has been 2 months since I purchased this, so I decided to give it Though I only cooked with this container a few times, the container seems to have deformed since I first used it. It appears that the metal guard meant to hold down floating foods has come off and nothing has stayed As a result, the lid does not sit flush on the top.

I have used it at least once a week, if not It's the evenly-distributed taste that we love It's been cooked Producing throughly tender and juicy meats with little effort and amazing consistency, it has little to no effort in preparing them. Using the Anova, we found this to be successful in an old 8-year-old computer Tenths of a dozen This is a 6-inch diameter pipe The stew pot should be at least seven inches deep. I liked this for the most part, in terms of cooking pork chops, chicken breasts, steaks, stew meat, but when it came to larger roasts and a newly refurbished oven, I did not like it We purchased an egg cooker of 10 pieces of silicone Since I couldn't fit the Anova itself in its current diameter, I decided it was Since I was so familiar with the brand, I just went straight to their polycarbonate container and ordered that without considering other options. I received the package last Friday on time. Following instructions), I quickly noticed problems. #1-I lost my password. The Anova device is attached sloppily to the end of the container, and there is a wobble in the end. Item #2 The process it submerged is useless at half. Optimal result #3 This filling bows the sides just enough to make the rack precarious and easily slip off into the deep (this is not much of a problem until the water is heated to 130°F or more. Item #4 It is not easy for the same bow to seat and align the retaining lid that is intended to retain the heat. There is only one side to the story I. c. #5. There are silicone flaps on the lid of the Anova heater to help seal it off. There is wobbling in the lid and a problem with lid alignment with the circulator Heating to the cooking temperature of water takes more than triple the time as that of the smaller pot mentioned earlier I will separate them two- Chicken breasts suspended from a wire rack with clips remained pressed against both sides of the container during the cooking procedure, as if they were magnets repelling each other (so much for rounded corners improving circulation! ) In our experiment, silicone egg trays floated above water and were submerged under water by filling a bucket with five gallons of water By filling the bottom of the egg tray with water and placing the lid between the bottom of the egg tray and the rack. Normally, we expect the results to be too good, but neither of those happened this time I expected perfection, but the journey got there was disappointing. Of course it wasn't better than my previous setup. The team at Nova There is a theory behind this model that is untested and seems to be speculation The next version should incorporate a better, more secure receiving slot for the circulator, a hinge for the lid directly above that slot, and at least a couple of inches of lowering of the ledge on which the rack rests. In order to avoid bailing, you might also consider adding a petcock with a 3' hose attachment. After seeing some of these superior features in competing models, this one goes back to the drawing board. I might give you a second chance if you give me notice when you update.

Size wise, it is very large. I like the concept of the wire rack, but I could never use it. When the water is warm, the rack falls out of the grooves. In case the bag ends up floating up to the wire, the water has to be filled almost to the lip of the container. Food is supposed to be covered with an inch of water. In the case of clipping to the wire, it is a hassle to put the container into the container and out again. A lid that seals well is a good thing. A small gap is visible at the center of the container caused by the bow in the middle of the water. You might find it a little difficult to get the lid off or to turn it to the side if you want to check what's in it or if you want to use it. That's all. This does not appeal to me. There are really only two things I like about the design.

Email was received by the company They mailed me a return label as soon as possible. A replacement label was sent to UPS as soon as the label was scanned. Very quickly, it was delivered to me. The product and company are both good and I recommend both of them. In addition, I received my Anova Culinary ANTC01 Sous Vide Cooker on May 7, 2020, just one month after I purchased it. This is a tool I have used five I went to Amazon's website to return or exchange it on July 3, 2020, when I noticed that there was a large stress crack in In any case, the return window had passed. In order to find out more about Anova's warranty, I went to their website. Returns are offered without asking any questions for a 100 day period. you can only buy a product directly from them if you purchase it There appears to be a difference in reasoning. In addition to being the seller on Amazon, they also sell on eBay. It looks like I received a defective product. I have submitted my request for an exchange on their website. I really like the product, but have received it in a defective condition. In summary, if you want this product, and I find it to be a good product, then buy it directly from Anova, not Amazon, so you will be covered under As soon as I hear from Anova, I will update this.

It is a vessel that can comfortably fit a family of four. As a consequence of its large capacity, the sides tend to bow out and the rack itself tends to fall out of place. The rack is held in place by notch on the interior and as the rack widens the notches can no longer hold it in No matter if the lid is on or off, it happens. It has been necessary to add clamps to the outside in order to prevent This is a not too great option, as a result. This system allows a lot of meat to be cooked, and the water is able to circulate efficiently.

I tested the cooking temperature of the container several times to see how fast it reached commonly used cooking temperatures before using it. To get my water hot, I started with 120-degree water from the tap. Once the thermometer reached 150°, I set the temperature to that. A temperature of this level is achieved after 20 minutes. A common setting for cooking vegetables is 185°, and I changed that setting to 185°. After reaching the desired temperature, the temperature remained constant for an hour and 20 minutes. From my reading, I understand that higher temperatures mean a more stable product. A large amount of water and a lack of insulation on the container contributed to the incident. It would be nice to have large containers if you are cooking large quantities for a big family, but for two people or a family of two, the size and the long heating time for vegetables made it unsuitable as a meal delivery system. (I'd like to see a smaller size )

We'll be returning the container and switching to a 12-inch.
