Media Watch | Vacuum Sealing and Sous Vide Setup @Bob9961 | Uploaded September 2016 | Updated October 2024, 20 seconds ago.
Here's an example of a chamber vacuum sealing & sous vide setup. We've portioned a corned beef brisket into individual serving pouches and are cooking sous vide at 175º F for 24-36 hours.
We prefer the chamber type vacuum sealer, like the Ary VacMaster 112s, because liquids and powders aren't sucked out of the pouches, and the pouches are considerably less expensive than the ribbed pouches intended for use in the external/clamshell type vacuum sealers.
We selected the Gourmia immersion circulator (GSV130 digital sous vide pod) because we like that it's 1200 watts and we don't find any significant benefit of having the blue tooth or WIFI connectivity found on other products.
We think the Rubbermaid 12-quart commercial food container is an ideal sous vide vessel when paired with the Gourmia GSV130. The circulator is a bit on the chunky side, so the bigger container, compared to a stockpot or saucepan, allows room for a good number of food pouches.
We've been using the ChefSteps Joule in recent weeks and enjoy it for its size, fitting nicely in a 6-quart stock pot with room for the food, but having to stop and retrieve the smartphone in order to start the app-reliant circulator is somewhat of an inconvenience ... an extra "ChefStep," if you will. Let's hope your Joule is close enough to the WIFI router to make a direct connection. Mine is on the fringe and sometimes has trouble connecting to the internet, which is required for firmware updates.
