Water Baths

[Gabe Q]

Hello. Well I've been doing searches on the consumer forums and haven't found anything specific on this. I have read the food saver topics which is part of my interest. But now what I want to know is where can I get as good affordable water bath for my home kitchen? I did some reasearch on google and got some websites, mostly from Europe and they never quote prices, so I have no idea what they run for.

I would want either just a individual water bath or a bath/circulator that you can attach to the top of a stock pot. Preferably though the stand alone water bath, just a small one.

So does anyone know of a good source here in the USA and any actual prices?????

Hi,

I think you'll find most folks buy their equipment used on Ebay. I got my circulator for about $200. The new ones run for about $1000. You can get them from JB Prince, or a couple of other culinary vendors, but you can also buy them from lab equipment vendors.
