ANOVADAD

Insanely powerful, built for continuous use, and tougher than the competition, the Anova Precision® Cooker Pro is ready for any task you throw at it. Whether cooking a weeknight meal for the family or an all out holiday feast for the neighborhood, this is the tool for the job.

Wanting to get into sous vide and was tossing up between the regular Anova and the Inkbird. Then I got this email earlier from Anova about the Pro and thought it was a no brainer to prefer this.

Price with coupon seems to beat out most previous deals over the past few years.

This is part of Father's Day deals for 2024.

    Thanks for the post, placed an order just now!

    For those looking for a container, I've used the Everie Sous Vide container with the Anova Precision Cooker (the basic version of this) and have had no issues with it. About $50 cheaper than the official container from the Anova website.

    Too dear, just get an Inkbird.

    I think the inkbird is probably the better choice, the difference in power is only 200W, 0.1C precision is plenty. Spend the difference on a nicer vacuum sealer.

      I second this, ive been running the inkird for over a year now and couldnt think of a reason to spend more on the heater/pump

      Also a tip for very effective container especially for over night / long slow cooks , buy a big cheap stainless pot from kmart and wrap it in duct insulation, something like reflectix or ductwork, i cut a gap in the lid with angle grinder but you can buy universal rubber lids that are much easier to cut, or just use layers of aluminium foil with sag in the middle so the the water drips back in as it evaporates

  • I would take an Inkbird over this as it usually can be had for $70 when on sale every month. Just got two this month for under $140.

    Never actually considered how these work - after watching a video, my question is how healthy and safe is it to be consistently cooking items in a plastic bag, especially in warm/hot water?

    Aren't there still concerns with long term exposure to plastics even if they are BPA free?

    Edit: from an article I just found:
    "The reason they're not necessarily “good” plastics is because a 2011 study found that when some were heated, these plastics —in fact, most plastics on the market, including those advertised as BPA free—release non-BPA chemicals that disrupt hormone activity."

      You can use silicone pouches/bags, they are also much easier to reuse than the polyethylene vac roll pouches

      • Any recommendations for silicone bags?

      Yep agree. I don’t think we as a society yet fully understand what the risks are with plastics and heating them. I avoid as a result. Not saying there are dangers but for example smoking and asbestos were not seen as unhealthy things until a long time later. I’ve seen articles about how there are thousands of chemicals in a single plastic and a bunch are known to be dangerous while a bunch are unknown and not yet tested.

      • Just like non-stick cookware. They thought Teflon was safe and who knows in how many years later, we will be told that the coating on our current non stick cookware is toxic.

        • Yeah agree. I’ve switched all our cookware to cast iron or steel and it’s all good. No sticking food.

    • I understand your concern and I am also one avoiding plastics as much as I can. Unfortunately, microplastics are already in our water and food chain.
