Wow, another game changer by Anova! Looks beautiful too. I'd get this if I didn't already have the polyscience chamber vac. I think at that price point a dry pump is fully sufficient. I do wish I had chosen an oil pump to take things to the next level, but one of the barriers for me when buying was the /perceived/ technical challenges of managing an oil pump (of course I now see how easy things are). I think the convenience will be a good marketing point to many hobbyists and the type of people who buy Anova products.

 

Edit: they seem to suggest and actually recommend cooling bread with the dry pump?? This was one of the reasons I wanted an oil pump, I thought it would wreck a dry pump from the moisture. Does anyone know the technicalities of this? Was I mistaken or maybe Anova has some sort of special adaptation to enable this?
