That’s right, it’s a scientific anomaly: uncovered water brought to 405 degrees Fahrenheit with no evaporation!!
Anyone else seen this? This is a 2018 model btw, regularly cleaned and stored according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.

It’s the chicken roasting version
Do it, Steve. Go bananas.
I had that exact issue, though I don’t remember the year I bought it. I didn’t let it get that far but the temperature reading just started going up (but not the actual temperature).
Anova is overpriced piece of shit. I don’t even know what you are talking about. All I saw was Anova.
I had the same issue recently with the the same model. Temps were in the negative.
It is clearly not reliable anymore and cannot be use.
I had to purchase a new one.
I’ve had this issue with uncovered cooks. Steam messes with the electronics.
I got the Breville Turbo Joule. It was significantly more expensive at about $250, but man I’ve used other units and this thing is Quality. Everything is controlled from my phone, and water preheats in no time. Super happy with my purchase.
If too much steam gets in the unit, it condenses on screws up the circuit board. This happened before I got a tub with a notched lid.
Mine just started flipping over to Celsius and freaked me out
Mine did that last week! Both of my OG Anovas died within a month of each other – not bad for 10+ years old.
