Has any one else ran across information on this one? I wonder if they will run another Kickstart on it?

I believe they already have that available. Or at least one that can be controlled via Bluetooth
-
The Precision Cooker that I just received is bluetoothically enabled, but only with an I-phone app..which I don't have.
Can't imagine needing the app because I'm standing right there when I turn on the cooker. I set the temp and the time and it's all good from there. It holds the set temp very closely, so I don't have to diddle with it or worry about it. My house isn't so big that it wears me out to go check it if I want to. I usually set a timer on my smarty pants phone to keep me reminded of the time.

What Jack says... ;)

The Anova Touch they mention in the article will be WiFi enabled instead of Bluetooth like the current Anova Precision. I'm sure if they do a Kickstart program on it I'll get an email notification about it.

I am a simple guy (for those of you that haven't already figured that out.) I get it that folks like their phones and apps, but I never have. I use a Thermopen to check the temp of my food. I've never felt the need to monitor the cook temp. I realize that there are good reasons to do it, but never been on my radar. I just want devices that work well - don't want to pay more for being connected. That's just me.

Pretty soon your grill will nag you that you are doing it wrong.???

I am a very happy curmudgeon!

It's the wi-fi that interests me ... If I can monitor temps remotely from work that would be handy. I'm planning on ordering a precision this weekend either way.

The reliability is key!

Cool.....Then you will be added to their returning customer list and if they do a Kickstart program on the Touch you should get a notice with a discount on the next one. After I purchased my Anova One I got a discount code for $50 off the Anova Precision, making the price of the Precision $129.

It sounds nice but do you really need to control temps remotely or monitor temps with a device that keeps water within 1/2 a degree of set temp?

Probably not .... Not that I can do much about an issue from work anyway :)

They will end up watering down a perfectly good device.

I don't have to buy a new grill to do that, my wife does it for free.
