Recommended Liquids 

 
Care should be taken when selecting the most appropriate heating medium for use with the Professional Sous Vide Circulator to ensure 
optimum performance and user safety. Please refer to the table below as a guide : 
 

Primary Temp Range °C

 

Recommended Medium 

 

Comments 

 

-30 ~ 4  

50% water, 50% inhibited ethylene 
glycol 

Use a lid to reduce the dilution of the medium caused by 
condensing water vapour from the air. 

5 ~ 100  

Tap Water or Filtered Water 

Water is suitable for most low temperature applications, 
however care should be taken when working above 60° as 
scalding by steam is possible. At temperatures approaching 
100°C the temperature stability will be affected due to 
localised boiling.

 This unit should not be used to boil water.
