Anyone know of a circulator that refrigerates rather than warms?
Better yet, an inexpensive refrigerated circulator??
Found some in the $4,000 price range that I'm not sure would be large enough.
Kind of a bigger deal to that than just warm. Would be cool to have something like that when cold water defrosting. As the frozen food warms the water up, the circulator keeps it below 3 degrees Celsius. I have a turkey going now.
Jerod Broussard Closest I've seen is the circulating coolers used to provide relief for injuries. Uses ice, way cheaper than $4000, might be a place to start, with a lil' mod work.

I had foot surgery a while back and was fitted with a plastic boot through which ice water circulated. The actual circulator was a cooler (think faux cambro) with a marine grade water pump in it. It'd probably be pretty cheap to rig something like that up.

yep ... only back then it looked like more of a DIY gizmo. It was truly a cooler and a marine-grade submersible pump attached to a couple of plastic hose lengths. Filled with ice and water, it was the best thing ever.
Jerod Broussard You could rig one up with a couple coolers, one with an aluminium trans cooler or cold plate in the bottom filled with ice and a circulating pump to circulate water from your meat cooler to the cooling plate and back. kind of like a kegarator. http://rapidswholesale.com/aluminum-...te-1-line.html
Actually sounds like a fun project.

... or whip up something like the immersion wort cooler that I've been known to use for home brewing:
You can either circulate ice water through it (in which case it's immersed in the turkey cooler) or you can immerse it into an ice water bath and circulate turkey-cooler water through it (not recommended due to contamination issues inside the copper coils).

Thanks guys. I'll keep a look out. I've got an Auber PID. I was actually using that with a waterproof Thermoworks probe to watch my water temp with the PID alarm at 38 degrees.
