Jet City Gastrophysics co-founder, Director of Applied Research at Modernist Cuisine, recipient of Forbes 30 Under 30 award, and all around awesome dude Scott Heimendinger has really done it this time. He’s taken his DIY $75 sous vide immersion circulator and scaled it up to a full fledged commercial project – the Sansaire sous vide circulator.

But just how did he get from tinkering at home to mass production? Well, let me tell you.
