Abstract
A sous vide system including a container having an amount of liquid therein with at least first and second temperature zones, first and second temperature sensors for the first and second temperature zones and a control unit for maintaining the temperature of the liquid in the first and second temperature zones using heating and/or cooling units.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a container that includes a liquid bath;
- a portable unit that is separate from the container and that is configured to at least one of heat the liquid bath or cause circulation of the liquid bath, the portable unit including:
- one or more structures that extend from the portable unit into the liquid bath and that at least one of heat the liquid bath or cause the circulation of the liquid bath;
- and
- one or more temperature sensors that monitor a temperature of the liquid bath;
- and
- a control system that is communicatively coupled to the one or more temperature sensors and that at least one of maintains the temperature of the liquid bath or causes the circulation of the liquid bath.
