I just made a "Spanish Rice" in the Instant Pot for dinner tomorrow, including some tomato sauce, frozen peas, and some peppers that I had dehydrated in the APO.

 

Tomorrow, how do I reheat in the APO so I don't end up with water at the bottom of the casserole? (temp, % steam, and time, please). TIA.

Is anybody else’s app down? All of my favorite recipes are missing except for sous vide steak. I went to reheat pizza and I was shocked. I deleted and reloaded the app and the same problem.

Not recipes but I wanted to air fry something tonight and when I went to key it in on my app it wouldn't work or I keyed the settings in manually.

I have been having issues getting the app to connect to the oven but didn't have time to fiddle with the phone set up so I left it and set it manually but it bugs me to have the light on.

 

Last night when I was reheating something in the oven I heard my phone ding when it got to temp? I checked the phone and voila, it was connected so I was able to turn off the oven light while it was working.

 

I really like the app as I often put a frozen leftover in the oven on my way out to yoga class.  When I am done the class I turn on the oven through the app.  By the time I reach home, dinner is almost ready.   It is very diappointing to not have the app working.

It seems to be working again.  Cooked a brisket for a couple using one of the recipes in the app and it was fine.  Of course, I had to get up through the night to check and make sure it was working ok as I wasn't sure the app hit and miss would mess it up, but it was successful.

I'm interested in doing a boeuf bourguignon in the APO. Any suggestions as to method, temp, and time?

 

Edited to add: I have 2.5 lbs of beef chuck roast.

Has anyone used their APO to ferment cured meats? Im 100% sure it would work great, im just not sure on the settings to achieve lets say, 85F and 85% RH. I can't seem to find info on RH with the APO, but my common sense tells me 85% on the steam function would be 85% RH, but where im not sure is what mode would work better for this is SV mode or oven mode? Anyone know what settings are better to achieve 85F and 85% RH?

For example, proof mode for proofing dough for bread making used oven mode with 10-100% on the steam function. 

 

I ordered a hygrometer to do some testing. It can handle 158F but im not sure its waterproof, so i will be starting at 10% steam to see what that means in RH, and go from there.

So to update my test on RH, the RH in my kitchen was 35%. I set the APO to oven mode with 40% steam. I gave it about 30 minutes and checked the hygrometer and its staying pretty steady at 80% RH. This is with nothing in the oven but the hygrometer. Im sure once i add meats to ferment, the RH is going to be much higher. Im not even sure if i will need to add steam.

Sale of lamb items from my neighbourhood market!

 

There's a plan to sous vide 7.5 pound bone-in lamb leg in the Anova Precision Oven in Sous Vide Mode, then finish in a hot oven to get a good crust.

 

This recipe from Anova Culinary is for boneless leg of lamb.

 

How much time should I add for bone-in?

 

Can I add the herbs and spices to a frozen lamb leg? How much time should I add to the total time to thaw the leg?

 

@rotuts, I have notes that you recommend 133ºF for the target temperature. Right?

I like SV meat at lower temps than most people.

 

I like lamb tender ( time function ) but pink.    

 

keep that in mind.  w SV  you can get both tender and pink .

Thank you.  It would appear that a subscription fee is due on another app and it showed up in the Anova App.  I will ask a moderators to remove the post.

This is what mine shows.  When I clicked on manage subscriptions, the second screen showed up which was for Evernote.  Maybe I didn't get the message because I'm grandfathered?

I had asked this question in the Sous Vide topic as I wanted to cook a turkey crown sous vide.  Since then, I killed my Polyscience professional circulator so I'm trying to figure out if I can sous vide it in the APO.  This is what it looks like.  It is about 6 pounds, it is intact except the legs and wings have been lopped off, the breast bone can be removed if necessary.  My questions are, if using the APO:

 

Does it need to be bagged?

What temperature?  142.5 as @rotuts suggested

And for how long?

Do i need to insert the probe?

 

TIA for your help.
