Sous Vide Cooker & Immersion Circulator Accessories

Best Sous Vide Accessories for Commercial Kitchens

Sous vide accessories help you get the most out of your immersion circulator by improving temperature stability, workflow efficiency, and cooking capacity. Insulated tanks maintain consistent water temperatures with less energy, while bag holders keep vacuum-sealed pouches submerged and organized during cooking. Insulation balls float on the water surface to reduce heat loss and evaporation during long cooks. These accessories turn a basic sous vide setup into an efficient, high-capacity cooking station.

Temperature consistency is critical for sous vide cooking, where precise control delivers the tender, evenly cooked results that make this technique so effective. Accessories that improve insulation and reduce heat loss help your immersion circulator maintain steady temperatures without working as hard. This stability is especially important for long cooks that run for hours or even days, where small temperature fluctuations can affect final results.

At GoFoodservice, we offer sous vide accessories from Sammic and Winco, trusted brands that manufacture quality equipment designed for commercial kitchen demands.

Why Choose Dedicated Sous Vide Accessories?

Insulated tanks are purpose-built for sous vide cooking and offer significant advantages over improvised containers. The insulation reduces heat loss through the tank walls, helping maintain stable temperatures while reducing the workload on your immersion circulator. This efficiency matters during long cooks and when cooking large quantities, where heat loss from uninsulated containers can cause temperature drops that affect cooking results.

Bag holders solve a common frustration in sous vide cooking: keeping vacuum-sealed bags properly submerged and separated. Without holders, bags tend to float, overlap, and bunch together, leading to uneven cooking. A good bag holder keeps pouches organized and fully submerged with water circulating around all surfaces. This organization also makes it easier to cook multiple items at different doneness levels in the same bath.

Insulation balls are a simple but effective accessory for reducing evaporation and heat loss. The balls float on the water surface, creating an insulating layer that traps heat and moisture. This is particularly valuable during extended cooks where evaporation can lower water levels below the circulator's minimum line. The balls also make it easy to access the bath by simply pushing them aside.

What to Look for in Sous Vide Accessories

Choosing the right accessories depends on your cooking volume, typical cook times, and the types of items you prepare. Matching accessories to your workflow ensures you get the most benefit from your investment.

Some things to consider when shopping for sous vide accessories include:

• Tank capacity (gallons) for your typical batch sizes
• Insulation quality for temperature stability
• Tank dimensions to fit your workspace
• Bag holder capacity and ring sizes
• Insulation ball quantity for your tank size
• Compatibility with your immersion circulator
• Durable, food-safe materials
• And more!

The right sous vide accessories improve your cooking results while making the process more efficient. Matching tanks and holders to your typical production volume ensures optimal performance.
