you've read up on to these cooking and you're ready to buy an immersion circulator but which one do you buy will help you decide with this smart home showdown today we'll look at two immersion circulators the ANOVA precision cooker with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and the dual immersion circulator the ANOVA dual each have Wafaa built into the unit so you can use your smart phone to control your sous vide cooking even if you're not nearby now let's break down what makes the ANOVA and Jules stand out from one another the most noticeable difference between V ANOVA and dual is how they look the ANOVA is noticeably longer and water because of its onboard controls and a nice scroll wheel so you can control the temperature right on the unit the Joule instead of having those onboard controls goes for a sleeker smaller design with only one button at the top to control the whole unit now a lot of the power of the jewel comes in its act that's where you set temperatures but also look at really thorough helpful video guides so if you're a newbie to sous-vide cooking you can easily get comfortable with this method and try out new and different recipes the ANOVA also has a good app that shows you different temperature guides for different foods but the app doesn't have the same video features as the Joule does now when it comes to performance the ANOVA and Joule are very similar we cook two steaks side-by-side and the results were pretty similar and in individual tests that we've done with each unit we're really pleased with how the food came out so since the performance is the same you have to look at all the extras that each of these emergency circulators can do for me the joules compatibility with Amazon Alexa really sets this immersion circulator over the top you can use Amazon's digital assistant to control the immersion circulator with your own voice that connectivity really makes me prefer the Joule at least right now but I'm eager to see what the ANOVA can do to catch up with Jools next
