Water cooled oven steaming

[Shorttimer]

Since it's impossible to build a system right now, I decided to water cool my oven, anyone know if all this steam is normal?

Are you also leaving a space heater running in your freezer too? Like, why do you want to cool the thing literally designed to get warm?

Isn't it a *steam* oven?

De fuck?

 

Surely watercooling something that's designed to get hot, like an oven, is just making the oven worse at its one job?

Steam is likely created from the condensation from cooling. It's really not a good idea to cool a oven, but looks more like some one is trolling

Sorry guys, it's a bit of a joke. It's a new thing for home use, a counter top combi-oven, radiant heat (like old fashion ovens), convection heat (air fryers), steam heat (for high humidity cooking), and precise temperature control using dry bulb temp ( normal air temp ) and wet bulb temp ( temperature at items surface adjusting for evaporation effect, think sous vide style cooking).

 

They've been in restaurants for a while (expensive) and now Anova has come out with a $600US counter top version that's a lot of fun to experiment with ( high humidity re-heat of take out food is a game changer)

 

In the pictures above I've just completed the first cooking step at high humidity to keep the crust from forming on bread loafs while they're still rising and it's purging the steam out for a dry browning crust forming step.

 

Been an early adopter of neat gadgets since 1979 when I bought an Apple ][ Plus, I just can't help myself.
