    Cheap Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

    Haha, I wish! I am a bugger for a bit of geekery. That's my temperature controlled recirculating mash tun, essentially I can maintain constant temperatures to within a couple of tenths of a degree, in my mash tun when I'm making beer. Probably a bit unnecessary but I wanted to see if I could...

    Cheap Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

    I think I made my first test using a 98p bucket from B&Q. I'd recommend a 5 or 10 litre fermentation bucket from your local homebrew shop, the plastic should be thick enough to seal round the element without needing a washer, and it's food grade and will be rated to well over boiling pint...

    Cheap Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

    Yes that's the same element as I the ones I use. An IEC power lead will slide  directly on to the prongs, obviously make sure it's rated to 10 amps. The hole cutter you need for the gasket is 40mm. If you are determined to use a stainles steel gastronorm, I would recommend the qmax hole cutter...

    Cheap Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

    Baz The main problem with an electric hob is that they have a built in thermostat that breaks the direct relationship between the power applied by the PID temperature controller and the amount of heat applied to the water. For instance, there will be times when the electric hob thermostat has...

    Cheap Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

    Baz be aware that stainless steel is a complete bastard to cut, if you intend to cut a perfectly round hole you will need a Qmax. You will need to drill a 10mm hole first which you must do at very low speed using cutting paste else the steel gets harder and harder as it heats up.   Also you...

    Cheap Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

    Baz Here's a couple of ideas for you. You could use a 6 litre slow cooker (for about £20) eg http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/4228826.htm this is what I used until I bought the circulator. I also used a cheap fish tank pump, but be aware they are fine for low temperature...

    Nuts

    Thanks Wade, would the 8 minutes you suggest for cashews be too long for almonds? What sort of time would you suggest?

    Nuts

    Would this method work for almonds too, Wade?

    Cheap Sous Vide Immersion Circulator

    Hi Wade Glad you are pleased with the circulator. I thought it was a bargain at £99+ I've never tried cooking chicken breast sous vide, but that does look good. I've had good success with sous vide duck confit http://blog.sousvidesupreme.com/2012/07/bill-the-butchers-sous-vide-duck-confit/ and...
