How to use

Attach the Steba SV 80 to a pan with a minimum depth of 15 cm and fill the pan with the required amount of water. Set the desired temperature on the illuminated LCD and program the timer if needed. The device will heat and circulate the water to reach and maintain the set temperature; place vacuum-sealed food into the water once the target temperature is reached. After cooking, remove food from the bag and finish according to recipe instructions (for example, sear meat briefly).

Recommendations

For consistent results, preheat to the target temperature before adding food, ensure bags are properly sealed to prevent water ingress, and use a pot large enough for unobstructed circulation. Observe maximum temperature and time settings appropriate for the type of food.
