Just bought an Anova 2.0 after my cheap Monoprice died. Before that I had a Kickstarter Anova… is this sound normal?? It’s already driving me nuts.

    Just replaced my two og Anovas… it’s definitely higher pitched. Instead of gently humming in the background you get this shit.

    I don’t know if silent is normal? Mine isn’t silent you can hear the machine and the water but not as high pitched as this. It’s really no louder then my other appliances that run all day

  3. Yes I have the same one and it sounds just like that

    Mine makes a similar sound but it seems quieter than yours.

    Probably won’t help, but raise the water level an inch and see if it still does that.

  6. Had my old Anova that I’ve had for years (like 6 or 7, maybe more?) crap out on me. I was actually in the process of doing research of what to replace it with when my Dad bought me a new Anova.

    While it’s quieter from a decibel perspective, the higher pitched frequency of the noise it makes while running is very grating 🫤 I suppose there really is no reason it has to run in the kitchen, might have to move it to the laundry room or garage. It’s that irritating.

    That’s broken.

    Had one doing the same thing and they replaced it.

    I’m on my third.

    They are absolutely garbage quality.

    Mine sounds just like that.

    I just started a 30 hour Sir Charles. I plan to disassociate until Monday night.

    Nope mine is silent. Pull the cover off and run it. Sounds like something rubbing on the sleeve

    We got one that sounded like this, returned it and replacement was quiet.

    Anova are TERRIBLE. That sound is not normal. Return it for full refund and get a proper circulator

  12. JustPassingGo

    That is not normal. See if the circulator blade cover on the bottom unscrews. You a bent circulator blade axle.

    I just finished a ribeye in the sous vide. Best steak I ever had is the one I make at home since I got one.

    Yes. My first Anova was completely silent and when it died i quickly replaced it. The new one made that exact noise. I returned it within a day. I can’t understand why they haven’t fixed that

    Mine makes a much quieter version of that same sound.

  17. Open it up. Look for a bent heating coil that’s vibrating against the metal housing.

    Mine did this after I had used it for many years and then it would randomly stop for awhile and then it got really bad to the point I threw it away

    I have a different version. Sometimes it screams like a banshee. Pulling the bottom plastic cover off and adjusting the spinning blade to be more level stops it. I have to dink with it once in a while.

    My Anova is working fine – but now that they have introduced a subscription fee for new users, that would keep me from buying one

    Mine sounds about the same. Maybe not as loud (hard to tell the volume from the video).
