Sous Vide oven racks.

I received a Gourmia GSV550 as a gift. The rack doesn’t hold much. I was thinking about getting these:


Instructions say not to use without a rack.
With the racks above, I can get more in it. Anyone use these without a rack or have suggestions?

When you say received as a gift, was it new in the box or did you receive it from someone who didn't want it anymore? The reason I ask is it is supposed to come with racks. Maybe call the customer service number to get the factory racks?

If you are going to buy racks this would be better option

It was new in box. I'm using the rack that came with it. I can get 2 steaks max in the rack.

I looked at these, but are 3/4" too tall.
I thought with the flat racks I would keep bags off the bottom, and maybe stack them with space in between.
I am going to get a immersion circulator at some point so I can have a bigger container.

Gotcha. I don't know how well those would stack and leave room in between for circulation. I use a circulator clamped onto a stock pot and just clip the bags around the perimeter.

I do the much the same with either a big enameled canning pot or with a 40qt cooler.
I have fabricated stainless racks for both of them that sit on top, and leave a little room between the meat and the side of the container.
I’m sold on freezer bags and giant paper clips rather than vacuum packing everything...

The Joule SV that I have has no trouble keeping up with any of the stuff I’ve thrown at it...
