The Joule Sucks If you’ve done any research into sous vide devices, you know that ANOVA and ChefSteps rule the roost. Objectively, the Joule bested the competition in every respect that mattered to me: efficiency, speed, and size. It’s smaller, it heats water quicker, and the minimalist style appealed to me.I saw no reason the Joule wasn’t the best. Every review I read said something along the lines of “we’d give the Joule the top spot, but the lack of physical controls will be a deal-breaker for some.””Ha!” I scoffed. “Who are these fuddy-duddy luddites?” Dials and knobs are so last century!

What the heck I just want to experiment. I grabbed the 6qt stainless liner from my Instant Pot, filled it with hot tap water, clipped the Joule on the side and plugged it in. I had already loaded the app on my phone, so I followed the tutorial and got Joule renamed and running on my WiFi. It had me do a control test and…
Worked great for a while Worked great for a while, then wouldn’t stay connected to bluetooth and then started having issues maintaining temperature. Called Chef Steps directly and because I bought it from Amazon they cant help me and because Amazon return period has passed, I guess we are SOL.
