Description

Enjoy dependable sous vide cooking with an all-in-one 8.5-litre water oven engineered for exceptional temperature stability.

8.5-litre stainless steel sous vide water oven for precision cooking

Unlike conventional portable immersion circulators, this water oven incorporates its own insulated tank. It provides the quietest, most stable and most professional-looking solution for your worktop. There is no need to improvise with saucepans and clamps: this sous vide cooker is a self-contained station that is ready to use.

The insulation advantage: zero evaporation
Its close-fitting lid and double-wall construction retain heat far more effectively than an open container. This reduces electricity consumption and prevents water evaporation, even during very long cooking cycles such as pulled pork, confit and slow-cooked eggs.

Professional performance in a compact format

1. An ideal size for smaller batches

With an 8.5-litre capacity, it is compact enough to remain on the worktop while still providing space for a meal serving 4 to 6 people, such as 6 good-sized steaks or fish fillets. Its brushed stainless steel design integrates neatly into any modern kitchen.

2. Even cooking and water circulation

This model should not be confused with a static bain-marie. Its patented water-circulation system (8L/min) maintains a consistent temperature throughout the tank. A stainless steel separator rack is included to hold pouches vertically and allow water to circulate freely around them.

3. Quiet operation and easy maintenance

The unit operates remarkably quietly, making it suitable for overnight cooking. Its high-quality stainless steel inner tank is formed as a single piece to prevent leaks and can be wiped clean after draining.

Technical note: This model is optimised for a range of 45°C to 90°C, covering 100% of standard requirements for meat, fish and poultry. For root vegetables that require temperatures above 95°C, we recommend our immersion circulators or XXL water ovens.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sous Vide Cooking

How does low-temperature sous vide cooking work?

Food is placed in a sealed bag and then immersed in a water bath maintained at a precise temperature. Unlike direct cooking, the heat is gentle and consistent, helping to cook food evenly, provide better control over texture and reduce moisture loss.

What is the difference between an immersion circulator and a sous vide cooker with a built-in water bath?

An immersion circulator attaches to a compatible pot or container. It is compact, easy to store and allows you to adjust the volume of water to the amount of food being prepared. A cooker with a built-in water bath is an all-in-one solution: its integrated container makes setup easier and is better suited to frequent cooking, larger quantities or professional use.

Do you need a vacuum sealer to cook sous vide?

A vacuum sealer is recommended to remove air from the bag, keep food properly submerged and achieve more consistent cooking. Always use food-safe bags designed for sous vide cooking and the intended temperature. Vacuum sealing and cooking are two separate steps: the vacuum sealer seals the bag, while the cooker heats and regulates the water bath.

How do you choose the cooking temperature and time?

The temperature depends on the food and the desired result, while the cooking time varies according to factors such as its thickness, quantity and starting temperature. A higher temperature does not always replace a longer cooking time. For reliable results, follow a cooking chart suited to the food and observe food hygiene and safety recommendations.

How can you maintain even cooking for several hours?

Observe the minimum and maximum water levels specified for your appliance. The bags must remain submerged without blocking water circulation. For long cooking times, covering the container helps reduce evaporation and heat loss. Check regularly that the water level remains sufficient, especially when using an immersion circulator.

What is the Vacuum Sealer Pro brand?

Vacuum Sealer Pro is a brand of the PIMA OÜ group, specializing in machines and consumables for professional vacuum packaging. It operates throughout the European Union, with its range available in 12 languages.
