Food safety

Does anyone know if it's safe to put the food in the water bath before it hits the target temperature? It's just that I can be so busy at times and I need to be on the go, so I don't really have time to wait for the water to preheat and I thought that maybe, before leaving, I could have the SV setup (bagged food, water bath, Joule) prepared (i.e. have it heating to target temp.) and just hit the start button when the target temp. is attained via Wi-Fi.

You should be fine. Starting with hot water from the tap helps a lot... I usually start out at around 125F and it heats up fast from there.

Tremendous help. Thank you, @Brandon Byrd

Joule heats so quickly that I do it all the time.

It does depend on what you're cooking. Most foods are okay to do that with, but anything that has a precise timeline would need to wait for the water to come up to temperature.

I don't think it's very useful.

Some products are not intended for a water bath. Accordingly, just select the products that would be intended for this purpose, for example, cereals. It is also not recommended warming up food, because it loses all its useful properties after the second heat treatment. Unfortunately, this is done everywhere, especially in restaurants. When I don't have time to cook after work, I buy food from the food trucks NYFTA close to my house. It is better not to do this with yourself and buy ready-made food, it is easier for you and better for your body.
