Warranty Manual

Q: Can I use ZipLock Freezer bags to cook the food?

A: That is all I use. I use the gallon size freezer bags with the double zipper closure. This type bag lets you evacuate just about all the air out of the bag. I don't use the slider type bags because they don't close as well.

Q: Does it measure only in F ° or in Celsius too?

A: Yes can be set for either.

Q: how large a pot can this be used in. How much water is the maximum suggested ? Video says enough for 2 people . . . can I use a 16 Qt Pot ?

A: I have used a five gallon bucket from Home Depot before and just cut a hole in the lid to keep the water from evaporating too much I cooked 15 steaks in the bucket at one time with no problem at all .

Q: what plastic bag can one use to withstand the heat and not break down and spew toxins on the food?

A: They say any name brand freezer bag is safe to use. Do not use "off" brands.

A: undefined

Great kitchen tools for prepping dinner or holiday
So handy for: heating up thick or thin slices of ham for Easter Dinner. Frees up the oven for other baked items. Doesn't dry out the ham. Gave this to our son-in-law on Christmas Eve...... The lobster tail was perfect. If you do a steak or filet the entire piece of meat will be the correct temp end to end. So if you like Med-Rare, you should consider cooking to Med temp. You only have to grill the filet roast/lamb loin for 10-15 min to brown the outside. Also I did the lamb loin & filet in the same pot, until the last 45min, then upped the temp for the filet.

Entry sous vide (size limitations + workaround)
I have found this to be an excellent entry-level sous vide cooker, with a few caveats. The first positive is the quality...this feels and looks every bit as premium as you would expect, despite the fact it's intended for more entry-level sous vide cooking. You can use the cooker by itself or use the companion Bluetooth app to set and monitor the temperature/time (useful if you're in another part of the house). The fact this is Bluetooth and not WiFi like the more expensive models is nowhere near as big a deal as it seems. Clean-up is very easy, just dry it off, and give it occasional vinegar baths every so often to knock hard deposits off from tap water. The biggest (and really only) drawback to this unit is the power, at 750 watts. What this means is that you won't be able to easily heat large containers if you plan on heating anything more than about 5 gallons of water. Sorry, no house party with a dozen steaks...at least without some ingenuity. One great thing about sous vide is the water has a lot of thermal capacity itself, so only your heating time to target temperature will suffer slightly, but once to temperature, even a lower power unit like the Nano can hold and maintain temperature. Starting off with hot tap water instead of cold water will instantly slash half the heating time off. The second is to use an insulated cooking vessel. An old cooler works very well for this. For me, I had an old styrofoam cooler that I modified to cook in, and am able to successfully use the Anova Nano to heat about 8 gallons of hot tap water in about 30 minutes. I have no regrets or qualms with this cooker, and would recommend it as a gift to anyone looking to start sous vide cooking.

Love this!
easy to use. Convenient because you can set it and come back to it hours later. you can set the temperatures from your phone. we are using it for the third time this week already because the food comes out amazing. I wouldn’t mind purchasing a second one in the future to cook multiple things at once!
