Sous Vide
This was a project idea I had when I discovered Sous Vide. I immediately wanted to try cooking with the method but didn't want to have to invest in a standalone device that I may not use too often.
Objectives:
Objectives:
- Create a low cost Sous Vide Water bath
- Allow Wifi Connection to the Sous Vide
- Purchase a crock pot, stainless grate, Wemos D1 (Arduino Board), Solid State Relay
- Program a PID Controller (Using Libraries for Arduino)
- Enable temperature sensing of the water bath
- Create circulation of the water to prevent hot spots and uneven cooking
- Design a user interface for use via in home wifi (reduced the need for a display and buttons)
- Calibrate the PID controller values
- I am able to cook roasts and steaks to the desired internal temperature. This allows for perfectly cooked meat that simply needs to be seared after
- Total project cost was under $20 and the crock pot is multi-fucntional
- I plan to design 3D print an enclosure for the electronics
- Allow monitoring from any location
- Graph temperature over time
- Allow standard Crockpot control
- Share the code and create an Instructable for all to utilize
