Steamers, Sous Vide & Rice Cookers — Common Questions

What does this category actually cover?+

Steamers, Sous Vide and Rice Cookers is a broad grouping of precision-heat cooking equipment. It includes sous vide water baths, immersion circulator sticks, pacotising machines and rice cookers. You will also find protective covers and accessories designed to work alongside the main units. The common thread is accurate, repeatable temperature control — whether you are holding a water bath at a precise degree or steaming a bulk rice batch for service.

Which brands do you stock in this category?+

We carry Clifton water baths, Polyscience and Sammic immersion circulators, Pacojet pacotising machines, Panasonic and Breville rice cookers, Apuro benchtop units, Crown Industries protective accessories, Brice equipment, and Gresilva products. Each brand is stocked because it suits the demands of a working commercial kitchen, from a small cafe bench to a high-output restaurant prep area.

Sous vide stick or a full water bath — how do I decide?+

An immersion circulator stick clamps to an existing container, which keeps upfront cost low and suits kitchens that already have suitable pots or polycarbonate tanks. A dedicated water bath like the Clifton range gives you a fixed, insulated vessel with built-in controls, which suits high-volume or overnight cooks where stability matters more than flexibility. If your team runs multiple simultaneous sous vide programmes, a bath with its own tank is generally the more reliable choice.

What size water bath should I buy for a busy restaurant?+

Clifton baths are available in sizes around 14 litres through to 28 litres and beyond, including double-tank configurations. A single 14-litre unit suits a small menu with limited sous vide dishes. Kitchens running proteins across multiple covers at once tend to reach for the larger or double-tank options. Think about how many bags you need to hold simultaneously at service, then size up slightly — a bath running at near-full capacity struggles to recover temperature quickly when cold product is added.

Can a Pacojet be used for savoury dishes, or is it just for desserts?+

The Pacojet 4 processes frozen preparations into smooth textures without thawing the base first, which makes it equally suited to savoury applications like herb oils, vegetable purees, fish mousses and compound butters. Most kitchens that buy one start with ice creams and sorbets, then quickly expand into savoury prep once the team gets comfortable with the technique. The machine processes small portions at a time, so the rest of the frozen base stays intact until you need it.

Do rice cookers in this range handle brown rice and congee, or just white rice?+

Panasonic and Breville commercial rice cookers generally include settings or timing adjustments that accommodate brown rice, mixed grains and congee-style extended cooks. Brown rice absorbs water more slowly and needs a longer cycle, while congee requires a much higher water ratio. Check the specific model's capacity and programme options before buying — the right setting makes a real difference to the finished texture, and a unit that only handles white rice will frustrate your team quickly.

How do I keep a sous vide water bath clean between services?+

Drain and wipe the tank after each use to prevent mineral scale and protein residue building up. A diluted food-safe descaler run periodically keeps the heating element clear, particularly in areas with hard water. Clifton baths have removable tanks on most models, which makes cleaning straightforward. Avoid abrasive scourers on the interior surfaces. The circulator probe and any sensors should be wiped down and dried rather than submerged in cleaning solution.

What maintenance does an immersion circulator need?+

Sammic and Polyscience circulators need their pump intakes checked regularly for debris from vacuum bags. A quick rinse under running water after each shift keeps the shaft and impeller clear. Descale the unit every few weeks in a hard-water kitchen — calcium deposits on the heating coil reduce efficiency and can cause the unit to run hotter than the set point. Store the circulator dry and upright, and inspect the clamp mechanism for wear if the unit is moved between containers frequently.

Are Crown Industries Urnsulator covers compatible with other brands' urns?+

Crown Industries Urnsulator covers are insulating sleeves designed to reduce heat loss from hot water urns during service. They are sized by litre capacity — 20 L, 30 L and 40 L options are stocked — so compatibility depends on the urn's external dimensions rather than its brand. Measure your urn's body diameter and height before ordering to confirm the cover will fit correctly. A well-fitted cover can meaningfully reduce the energy a urn draws to maintain temperature during a long service period.

What does this equipment cost, and do members get a better price?+

Pricing across this category spans a wide range. Entry-level rice cookers and circulator sticks sit at the more accessible end, while Clifton double-tank baths and Pacojet machines represent a larger investment. Most units sit somewhere between those two points. Members save off RRP across the full range, so logging in before you add to cart is worth doing. We ship Australia-wide, and the price you see is the price your kitchen pays regardless of location.
