So, I notice that it's quite possible to set on autopilot, but is there an option to have more control, in the case of recipes we find separately?
Is there some sort of way to know if the power went off? If so, does it check the temperature to see if it was just a surge or if it went into the danger zone?
I'm trying to reduce the amount of meat in my diet, personally, and most applications seem to be for meats. Are there significant advantages to getting one for anything short of slow carmelized onions and a few soups?
Yes, yes, and yes. It's worth it for what it does to fish and seafood alone.
You're right though, meats have traditionally been the main focus in sous-vide, but it's by no means limited to them. Pears are amazing, eggs too. Risotto, potatoes, and carrots are insane.
