Advantages of Sous Vide Cooking
By using the Maxima Sous Vide 28L method to cook, it will keep much more of
the nutritional content and use less additional fat then foods prepared
traditionally due to the reduced oxygen environment and low cooking
temperature.
Flavors can penetrate into food thoroughly, saving flavors and reducing harmful
contents.
Because of the low cooking temperature, food cannot be overcooked or dry out.
Meat can be tenderized completely. So it is very perfect for medium-rare cooking.
Sous Vide cooking and vacuum sealing will bring you excellent cuisines.
Sous Vide cooking can control precisely on cooking time and temperature,
giving the same perfect meals and the same cooking effect each time the food
is prepared.
The consistency of Sous Vide cooking can save your time and effort in cooking
in traditional ways because after the food is prepared, just leave it cooking in
the Sous Vide machine without any of your attention. When you are back, a
perfect meal is well cooked.
Prepare for Sous Vide Cooking
Vacuum sealing machine ---- To remove most of the oxygen from the bags and
to ensure an air-tight seal, preventing air or liquid going in. You can use chamber
vacuum sealer or small suction vacuum sealer for different demands. We supply
both kinds of vacuum sealers.
Vacuum sealing bags ---- To pack foods in and thoroughly sealed, ensuring
that no air or liquid can go inside. Please also ensure that the vacuum sealing
bags can bear temperatures up to 95°C or 203°F.
Thermal Circulator with Cooking water tank or Sous Vide water bath----
firstly put the cooking rack into the water tank (Not using the cooking rack might
result in a machine break down) ，then fill the tank or water bath with enough

water to cover the foods and control temperature for cooking. For immersion
thermal circulator, please also ensure that the water tank can bear temperature
up to 95 °C or 203°F. For Sous Vide water bath, there is a thermostat controller

Put in vacuumed food then fill the bath with water to ensure that water level will
not higher than MAX line and will not spill out of the bath.
Before start the machine, please ensure the water level is above the MIN line
but below the MAX line.
Do not touch the lid to avoid burn during the machine is running.
Please slowly lift up the handles at both sides of the lid at the same time to take
out the lid outwards, and avoid burning from hot steam from the lid.
When the discharge volume of the pump is significantly lower than first fill,
please clean the machine in time. Better clean the machine every 20 times use
or every 100 hours use.
Suggest draining the water every time and fill with new water before each use.
Reusing old water will cause that mineral substance subsides on the surface of
the machine components, thus affecting the performance of the machine.
It is not suggested filling hot machine (right after use) with cold water or fill cool
machine with hot water. Otherwise it will do harm to the machine functions and
lifetime. Please cool down the machine to room temperature first and then fill
with cool water.
Before cleaning, make sure the machine is unplugged.
Make sure the heater is cool down before cleaning to avoid burns.
During cleaning, do not damage the components inside the machine. Once the
components are damaged, please ask specialist to check and repair. Do not
attempt unauthorized repairs to avoid accidents.

How To Clean
Preparation:
Food grade vinegar (white vinegar, apple vinegar, etc.)
Why need to clean:
Normally tap-water contains minerals in our life. When the water is heated to a certain
temperature, there will be scale on the heater or surface of the machine. In this case,
the scale will affect the performance of the machine, and the machine is not goo d in
outlook as well. So we suggest you cleaning the machine after every 20 times use,
and accumulated working time is less than 200 hours. Or you can clean the machine
according to your actual needs due to different water in different place.
How to clean:
1. Pour water into the container till the MAX line of the machine. Add 15g vinegar
into the water. (Attention: when adding the vinegar, if the vinegar touches with your
eyes because of careless, please clean your eyes with a lot of water. And turn to a
doctor if needed!)
2. Turn on the machine, set the working temperature in 80℃ (176F), working time
in 3 hours (03:00), and press Start. After 3 hours, the machine will beep, then turn off
the machine and cut off power.
3. Check if the machine is clean enough. If not, you can add vinegar to the machine
again and run the machine as stated in the above step No. 2. If the machine is clean
