"I have used many brands of sous vide baths and stirrers throughout my career, and have found Grant to be the easiest to use, most efficient and most durable out of them all. Grant Scientific Equipment is in all three of our 5-star hotels because it gives us piece of mind knowing that our baths are never off by more that a fraction of a degree- at all times, which ensures precision and consistency; even in the busiest kitchen."

Grant has been manufacturing water baths in Cambridge in the UK, since 1950. Grant therefore has vast experience and an excellent track record of accuracy in temperature stability with their equipment. The temperature stability and uniformity of an Unstirred Grant Bath is excellent and guaranteed at +/- 1°C for the Professional Baths and +/- 0.2 °C for the Expert Baths. Since the baths are unstirred the volumetric capacity is undisturbed by the stirring mechanism, thereby using 100% of the surface area for product. Stirred units reduce the working area by up to 25%. The water does not move around in an unstirred bath, so bags stay where you put them in the water- avoiding confusion when busy. All Grant Baths are easy to clean and have hygienic stainless steel lines inside and outside of the bath and they are supplied with stainless steel lids.
The Grant Universal Stirrer (stirred heat) SV100 is a popular choice as it has excellent temperature stability at +/- 0.02 °C and it can be used on your own choice of a rectangular or circular vessel of up to 50 Litres, thereby creating your own “stirred bath”. The Grant Stirrers are simple to operate, have a stainless steel cage around the element and jet; so to avoid bags being pushed up against the heating and circulating mechanisms.
Founded in the 1950s, Grant Instruments has a long and distinguished history as a successful manufacturer of high quality scientific water baths and data loggers.
