I have always wanted an immersion circulator and thought of it as an aspirational purchase. Got served an ad for Anova and decided to take a look. Was pleasantly surprised to find an entry level model to try my hand at sous vide. If the Singapore website had the nano 3.0 I would have gotten that instead, but figured I’d get the Bluetooth nano for now and upgrade in the future.
Managed to find a pot at home that’s tall enough for the min max levels, and narrow enough so that I don’t have to use too much water.
Borrowed the America’s test kitchen sous vide for everybody ebook from my library and tried out the soft poached egg recipe to make Singapore style soft boiled eggs. Tried the poached salmon recipe as well and it turned out great.

Why did you wrap the pot with a towel? Is it just to prevent someone from getting burned if they touch the pot?
Does this one come with bluetooth control, or does the app require a subscription?
Be careful with the screen. Mine popped off and I had to glue it back on. Definitely not built as well as the instant pot one I had prior.
Same here it was like $20
I had an Anova precision cooker before and it seems to have better circulation but this one works just fine
Tip: do not do what some people suggest and SV eggs without a bag. The shells give calcium in the water and will clog up your device, and if ever an egg breaks, you are in for a hellish cleanup.
