PolyScience Sous Vide

®

 DISCOVERY

1.  Set Up Sous Vide DISCOVERY  & Water Bath:

•  Clamp Sous Vide

®

 DISCOVERY to a stockpot or any other 

vessel. Fill with water up to maximum level, indicated on  

Sous Vide

®

 DISCOVERY.

•  Do not use with more than seven gallons or thirty liters of 

water.

•  Set Sous Vide

®

 DISCOVERY to the  desired temperature.

•  Cover bath with lid or plastic wrap for efficient heat-up 

time and to avoid evaporation.

2.  Trim, Cut & Prepare Ingredients:

•  Use only very fresh ingredients from a reputable source.
•  The thicker the ingredient, the longer it takes to come to 

its cooking temperature.

•  Remove or cover pointy bones or anything that could 

puncture the plastic pouch.

•  Use less seasoning/herbs than you normally would.
•  Ensure seasonings and flavors are evenly mixed before 

adding to bag. Seasoning and herbs don’t distribute well in 

a vacuum-sealed pouch.

•  If appropriate for recipe, pre-sear meat and fish to 

eliminate surface bacteria.

•  If you brine or cure protein before cooking, store food in 

the refrigerator.

3.  Vacuum-Seal Chilled Food:

•  Make sure food is refrigerated at 38°F (3.3°C) or below 

until ready to seal.

•  Use food-grade plastic bags to seal food.
•  To ensure precise and even cooking, arrange pieces of 

food in the plastic bag in a  single layer.
