I have two Anova machines, one will be covered under the ban the second is new enough to escape. I haven't used the app in years. Did at first for the novelty but soon decided I could manually adjust temp between beef, pork, veggie cooks faster on the device than through the app. I have been manual only with both cookers for years, I am in the group of "not even sure I have the app on my new phone"

In the FWIW (not much) Department, I've got an old WiFi+Bluetooth model, purchased in 2016. It's been great.
When it first arrived I connected it to the network and gave the app a try. It was interesting ... but not technically "useful".
After using it maybe twice via the app, I pretty much forgot about it (the app and WiFi connectivity) and just set whatever I needed manually on the circulator itself. Until a couple of months ago.
A couple of months ago, I upgraded to Gigabit internet and WiFi ... which of course required a much newer router and wireless access point ... so much newer that the old Anova simply cannot (or will not) connect. I must have tried at least once or twice (
) to get it working, but it just refused ... so I forgot about it (the app and WiFi connectivity) and went back to manual control ...
... It's been great.Comment

The last time used according to the app history is April 14th. The app never impressed me. I'll do with monitoring the temp with the machine and I'll drop a probe and monitor with a thermometer. The ECHO that's 10 ft away will do as the timer. I'm good.Comment

Amazon is showing discounts in the 40% range. For those who don't have one (yet). Just saying for a friend with MCS...
Which one would you go with, Papa, Mama, or Baby bear?

Update: I did end up buying it. I was just going to let it ride, figuring they will probably make another offer, right? I go to use my current unit and the black casing/housing was cracked in two places! I never noticed. I only noticed this round because it just wouldn’t seat right on the waterbath container. $109 out the door with 4-6 day free shipping.Comment

Here's one for you!
Smoked Rainbow Trout
Walmart has fresh trout filets from Alabama very reasonably priced and nicely filetted (no bones!)
Sprinkle with Heath Riles Simply Citrus (or your favorite lemon pepper seasoning)
Arranged skin side down on a FrogMat and cooked on the pellet grill at 250 until done.
Optional dot with butter
Eat one filet and vacu-seal each of the others and freeze. Sous vide packet at 250 until suppertime. Open and enjoy, just as fresh as when cooked
