Weston Sous Vide

[Midwest_kc]

Anyone know how much water the Weston circulator will heat? I’m going to be making a batch of summer sausage, and figure I’ll finish sous vide if I can find one that’s not too pricey.

Not sure of the quantity but I use the Weston in a meat lug and works fine.

PapaSop One of the 70 pounders that Walton’s sells? I was looking at that combo.

Not a Walton’s one. Pic from last weekend. A little smaller.

It’s rated for 5 gallons of water.

I don’t have that brand, but for mine I use an old 50 quart cooler and place a meat lug lid with a cut out for the sous vide device over the cooler. Works like a charm. I guess my point is more than you think. I used to use a large meat lug, but wanted to make a set up that lost less heat. My setup is pretty much like papa sop’s, but now I use the cooler.
