I Compared 50 and 300 Sous Vide Machines With Steak TheKing3415: It's not really about the machine, though a better quality one will likely hold temp better for longer cooks (i. e 24 hours) as well as be more energy efficient and quieter. Getting a good sous vide is about time and temp. And no a 200 vacuum sealer isnt required for a good cook - just use the displacement method instead. And lastly always ensure you finish it appropriately!

Dude, you just submerge the Ziploc bag in the water leaving the opened part outside and the air goes outside the bag because it's pushed out by the water.
And a real test would be to set the gadgets to the desired temps, and measure the water temps after 1h to see if the water temp is the same with the temps showed on the gadget's display.
No need to cook meat, nothing.
Just measure the water temps!

whats the point of comparing 2 devices when you fail at the very start.
you should have vacuum sealed both steaks and compared just the 2 sous vide machines like how a proper review would be.
of course the other one was more expensive too, you bought a combo package instead of just the Sous Vide machine itself (which they do sell might i add, they're around 150-200 depending on discount)

For those that don't go for a vacuum bag, there's a trick to using zip-locks to get pretty much the same result. Use the pot of water you're going to cook in. Slowly lower the bag in to the water, as close to the lip as you can, and then seal it. The water is going to squeeze almost all of the air our of the bag for you. Its a lot better than what he did with manual squeezing.

Basically:
The 50 dollars performed about the same as the 300 dollars. It was a bit noisy and the herbs couldn't infuse with the steak as well because the pack contained pockets of air because of the manual sealing. If you were to use water to help push out all of the air out of the bag, you will probably get identical steaks.

There s an easy way to remove the air from a Ziploc bag just put your contents in the Ziploc bag and lower it into water with the opening open. Slowly lowering the bag without letting water into the top of the bag.
The pressure of the water will push out the air from the bag then you zip close the bag while in the water!

Its a skewed test Alvin, in order to determine the best sous vide machine BOTH meats should have been sealed in the vacuum sealed bags OR both in the Ziploc bag method. Please re do the test with the EXACT SAME methods on BOTH steaks to provide a true and accurate test of the machines. I am giving a thumbs down for this.

Huh so in this video the Anova Precision Cooker cost 300 while you could also get it on the Anova website, Target, and Best Buy on sale for 150 which usually cost 200 when it isn't on sale oh yes it also comes with the vacuum sealer probably bought both that added the cost to get the circulator and vacuum sealer.

FYI A simple way of vacuum sealing the ziplock is just to submerge as much of the ziplock bag as you can into the water without getting water in the bag, into the container filled with water. Water will squeeze all of the air out of the bag and then you can seal it with minimum air inside the bag.

In my experience an expensive circulator has other user experience options and wont break as fast. Most people I know who bought cheap sous vide machines need to buy a new one in a year or two. People who get an Anova (or something similar in quality) rarely need a new one: .
