Induction meets sous vide in a cooker you can actually afford

2015-01-28
hey I've seen that spiked wrist here at first filled the GE backed micro factory here in Louisville Kentucky this is the Paragon induction cooktop and what this is is a single induction burner that comes with a sous-vide attachment that connects wirelessly over bluetooth so what you'd be able to do with this thing is use it as a normal induction burner but also cook sous vide now if you're unfamiliar with sous-vide it's a French term that means under vacuum you put vacuum sealed ingredients like me vegetables fish whatever you want really and then you'll put those ingredients into a water bath that's held at a very precise temperature very steady and that cooks things really nice and even now because of the induction and the way it evenly heats the pot this cooker doesn't need to circulate the water so first build claims so it doesn't need to stick a fan down in and also the heating element on the bottom doesn't need to submerge an entire heating coil the way ANOVA and nama COO and other stick based sous-vide cookers will that means that it can use other things than water it doesn't have to be water only you can fill this with oil and do very precise sous-vide frying with this thing it'll also connect with your phone over Bluetooth you can select a recipe and say you want to make a steak and cook it to a perfect medium-rare you just select the steak you're making and hit medium-rare and it'll start cooking at those settings automatically now the interesting thing here is that the Paragon induction cooktop will be coming to IndieGoGo on February third by a crowdfunding campaign first of all is going to be doing this to sort of measure the market reaction to the product and see how demand is and see how people feel about it and they're gonna be kind of priming the pump with a very nice discount on day one at a price of one hundred and twenty nine dollars for that first day of the campaign only this will be one of the most affordable sous-vide cookers that we've seen and also a very affordable induction burner so if you wanted an induction cooktop it can't afford one like myself this is kind of a cool way to get one on your countertop and try it out after that first day the price will go up to 249 with a couple of other early bird discount thrown in there as well so we're gonna be watching that campaign to see how it does here at first build with the Paragon induction cooktop I've seen that's right Chris thanks for watching you
