In the midst of a SV cook of a brisket at about 22 hours, and while I was away from home for a while, my SV device went belly up (temp sensor failed). The water temp dropped to about 125F. While away I watched on my phone as the temp dropped , diagnosed the problem, and ordered a new SV device with overnight delivery. When I returned home I iced the brisket and placed it in the refrigerator.
As an aside here, this makes a great case for the wi-fi connected device over a BT or no networking at all.
When the new device arrives, I plan to resume the cook, adding a few hours to bring the brisket back to 155. I have done several SV-que brisket cooks with great success, but never dealt with this situation.
As I am in uncharted territory, for me, I am concerned about the final product.
If anyone has experience in this area I would greatly appreciate your comments. I will post how it turns out.
