Look forward to read your comment about Sous Vide Supreme. I have a SousVideMagic, but considering getting SVS in the near future. It looks really nice and sleek.

I have been cooking Sous Vide now for around 1 year and I dldn’t need to spend $2000 to get all the equipment I needed.

If you use a PID controller like a Sous Vide Magic from Fresh Meals Solutions (Costs around $160) and a dumb rice cooker (which you probably already own or can purchase for <$100) you can easily control temperatures within 1 degree C.

Zip Lock bags can be successfully used but most people use a Foodsaver (or similar) which can be purchased for <$100. You would need one of these with the Sous Vide Supreme as well.

There are a lot of comments on the net about the high cost of entry to sous vide, but they are just not true.

Anyhow keep up the interesting posts.

Cheers,

Peter.

Wonder if you also try out sousvidemagic by FreshmealsSolutions which is a PID temperature controller costing one third of the price of Sous Vide Supreme and doing basically the same job.
