Sous Vide Controller

Sometimes we have arts and crafts days at work. They're not sponsored or anything and cover the range from garden planters to floating fine art prints to making 3D models on a computer. This time, one of the managers decided to share how to build a sous vide controller.

Sous vide is a cooking technique where you put your meat in a tight freezer bag and submerge it in warm water for a long time. That way you can have a perfectly medium rare steak all the way through. Of course, afterwards, you should throw it in a frying pan to sear it up.

Anyway, the controller just measures temperature of the water and flips the crock pot on and off. (You need a cheap manual crock pot for this. Ours was digital, so I had to buy another.)

I'm excited to try it!
