Where you get this thermostat? I'm struggling to get the terminology right into Google to find one...
Quite a few links on pg3. Here's one:

Do you big meanies salt the water before you boil your steaks?
No, I can't see any reason to. Salt can't permeate the bag and the temperature is controlled by the thermostat. Salted water may also make the bag more buoyant, which is undesirable because you want all of the meat submerged.

I did a pork shoulder this weekend. 18 hours at 74C/165F then dry it with a paper towel and put it under the grill to crackle the skin. It was incredible.

Cant get behind cooking in plastic. Splinty @Splinty not telling you how to run your kitchen but surely you would agree it's not the best method of avoiding bpa

I did a pork shoulder overnight for today's Sunday roast. It was incredible.
