Sous vide

[Whiskyb]

I am planning on doing the 30 minute mozza cheese today. So far only onw question but that could change. In heating the milk. Could I set my sous vide heater to the required temp and just wait? My thermometer starts at 75* so not sure how accurate it would be on its bottom end of scale

I think it would ruin your SV apparatus. It is only for heating clear water if I remember the instruction correctly.

Thanks, it did not work anyway. Not sure why but duplicating everything and using the stove top this time to see. My guess is that there is no residual heat in the pot from being on a burner? Shall see how this next batch turns out

Put your milk in a bag and throw it in the sv maybe?

Second attempt turned out but I did have to let it set up longer than the recipe wanted

Any cheap remote digital therm will work. I usually just use a clothespin & pin the probe on the side of the pot. So that it's about 1" from the bottom and about 1" away from the side.
