Starting out: creative or chef unit?

[Anonymous Modernist 16800]

Hi guys!

I'm just starting out with modernist cooking and my husband is giving me a sous vide machine for my birthday (so spoilt!!). Anyways... He's asked me whether I want the creative or professional model and I thought I would ask on here what everyone thought was appropriate.

I obviously have the choice of either but don't want to just choose the most expensive one just because its more expensive if there isn't actually much point for home cooking.

Thanks!

Hello,

I'm not too sure about which recirculator you're talking about? PolyScience got the Sous Vide Professional CREATIVE SERIES, CHEF SERIES and CLASSIC SERIES. Any of them would be great for you. If you're talking about something else please give us a little bit more info.

Good luck and happy birthday!

Sorry, you're right - that was really unclear... I meant either the polyscience creative series or the chef series.

Thanks for the birthday wishes!

I would take the creative series. For your need you probably won't see much of a difference. With the extra money try to get a good blender or pressure cooker.
