Color can be chosen
100% BPA-free, non-toxic
Standard sizes:
19.05 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 25.4 mm, 28.6 mm, 35.56 mm, etc. (Φ9. 5 mm-φ100 mm)
By covering the surface of your cooking container with these polypropylene balls, it is possible to achieve a reduction in water evaporation of up to 90%, which is crucial when cooking with a thermocirculator for a long time. The undesirable effects of light and odors are also significantly reduced.
Polypropylene balls are lightweight with a very hard and smooth surface, which also helps prevent bacteria and chemical corrosion. Steam trapping balls allow you to cook without a lid with minimal heat loss and evaporation.
Features:
- prevention of evaporation;
- insulation helps prevent evaporation from the pot. This is especially important for longer cooking periods or when cooking at higher temperatures.
- increase efficiency, besides controlling evaporation, having a kind of lid helps with energy consumption and efficiency. The more heat remains in the vessel, the less it works to maintain the temperature.
- maximum tank capacity; proper insulation also allows cooking in containers exceeding the recommended maximum tank capacity.
- flexibility; Sous vide balls can be lowered into a container to insulate it, regardless of size and shape, if there are enough of them to cover the surface of the water.
- cost; a quick search shows that most bags with balls (you need 75-100) cost twice as much as a standard liter.
- easy to use; another bonus is the ability to add products, adjust the placement of products or remove products without messing with an additional lid. Just reach right in with the forceps or grab the edge of the bag.
- easy to clean; when you're done, just drain the water through a strainer to catch the sous vide balls, and then store them in a container to reduce clutter in the kitchen.
