Cooking menus overview
The Espressions Duo has 2 cooking menus.
Sous Vide cooking
Sous Vide has been a popular cooking method
in restaurants for several years. Sous Vide is
a French term which means ‘under vacuum’
and describes food placed in vacuum sealed
pouches and cooked in a water oven. Food
slowly cooks at precise low temperatures over
a long period of time to achieve succulent,
superb tasting meals. Sealing foods inside
pouches allows it to cook in its own juices in
addition to any marinades, seasonings etc.
you wish to add. Vitamins, minerals and juices
are retained within the food and natural
flavours are intensified. This allows the food
to be healthier, more tender and flavoursome.
Meats cooked in a sous vide tend to be more
tender, tougher and mostly cheaper yet flavour
filled cuts of meats such as chuck steak can
be used.
As sous vide cooking requires foods and
meats to be sealed individually, yet cooked
at the same time; it is perfect for families
and entertaining when there are people with
varied tastes and nutritional requirements.
It is difficult to overcook using the Sous Vide
method, although textures can change slightly.
As it's difficult to overcook, it allows food to
be cooked ahead of time, perfect for family
meals and entertaining.
Temperatures. The Espressions Duo has a
40°C to 90°C temperature range, with 1°C
increment selection. Different temperatures
are required for different types of food and
for different degrees of doneness. See the
'Sous Vide temperature and time guide' on
page 13).
Time. The cooking time depends on the
thickness of the food, rather than the weight
of the food. The default cooking time is 1 hour.
Time can be set from 1 hour to 24 hours. See
the 'Sous Vide temperature and time guide'
on page 13 for more information.
Ideal foods for Sous Vide cooking. Meats are
ideal to cook using the sous vide method as
they are more tender, succulent and flavour
filled.
• Red meats - Lamb, beef and pork.
• Poultry - Chicken, turkey, duck.
• Fish and Seafood - Fish, lobster tails,
scallops.
• Vegetables - Root Vegetables. Potato, carrot,
parsnip, beets, turnips.
• Vegetables - Tender Vegetables. Peas,
asparagus, corn, broccoli, cauliflower,
eggplant, onions, squash.
• Fruit - Firm Fruits. Apple, pear.
• Fruit - Tender Fruits. Mango, plum, apricot,
peach, nectarine, papaya, strawberry.
Steps to Sous Vide cooking
Step 1. Seasoning your food
To enhance the flavour of your food, you may
wish to marinade or add spices, herbs, butter
or oil to your vacuum pouch prior to sealing.
Step 2. Vacuum sealing your food
Sous vide cooking requires food to be vacuum
sealed inside pouches to ensure excess air
and moisture are removed, so the natural
taste and nutritional quality of the food is
captured. Vacuum sealing also assists in
opening the pores in food such as meat,
poultry and seafood so that marinades and
seasonings are more readily absorbed for
highlighted flavour.

10
Oxygen and moisture in air cause food
to degrade and lose flavour, texture and
nutritional value. Commercial quality vacuum
systems remove air and moisture before
sealing items airtight to create a commercial
quality vacuum. We recommend FoodSaver
vacuum sealers and FoodSaver bags and rolls.
Step 3. Cooking your food
When the water temperature has been reached
in the sous vide, place the pouches carefully
in the water. Ensure the pouches are fully
submerged in water, and that water can easily
circulate around the pouches for even cooking.
Step 4. Searing your food
When sous vide cooking is completed, you
may wish to finish off by searing to improve
the appearance and flavour of the food. This
is particularly suited to meats. Remove the
food from the pouch. Quickly sear meat in
a hot pan. This will caramelise the fats and
proteins for extra flavour.
Food Safety Guidelines for Sous Vide Cooking
CAUTION. Food cooked using the Sous Vide
method of cooking is not recommended for
consumption by those in an ‘at risk’ category
(low immune deficiency);
• Pregnant women
• Small children
• Elderly
• Those suffering from illness/disease
The below guidelines regarding using the
Sous Vide method will help to ensure good
food hygiene safety.
Food preparation
• All food items to be used for cooking using
the Sous Vide method should be of the
highest quality in freshness.
• Ensure that all meat, seafood, poultry and
game have been stored at below 5°C before
preparation begins. Using a digital food
thermometer to check the temperature is
recommended.
• Make sure that the food pouches are clean
and have not been contaminated by dirt or
other food contaminants.
• Use detergent and warm water, or a
sanitizing solution to wash the food
preparation area.
• Separate the raw ingredient preparation
area from the finished product area
• Wash hands well before commencing any
food preparation.
• Prepare foods to the recommended thickness
according to the 'Sous Vide temperature and
time guide' on page 13. Smaller cuts of meat
will cook more quickly.
Cooking
• Use the 'Sous Vide temperature and time
guide' for cooking times and temperatures.
• Ensure that the cooking pouch is completely
sealed before cooking commences.
• Ensure that the cooking pouch is still
completely sealed when cooking has finished.
Storage
• If the food is not going to be consumed
immediately, plunge the pouch containing
the food into iced water to reduce temperature
quickly. Refrigerate until required.
Reheating
• Reheat food until internal temperature is
above 75°C.

Slow Cooking
Slow Cooking achieves flavour filled meals,
and tender moist meats cooked to perfection.
Slow Cooking provides healthy, simple and
economical cooking. It requires minimal
supervision, short preparation times and
quick clean up times.
LOW setting
This is suitable for simmering and slow
cooking.
HIGH setting
This is for faster cooking. Typically 1 hour on
HIGH = approximately 2 - 2.5 hours on LOW.
KEEP WARM setting
When slow cooking time is completed, the
Espressions Duo automatically switches
to the Keep Warm setting to prevent
overcooking and to keep your cooked food
warm until serving - perfect for busy families,
those on the run and those who need flexible
meal times. This setting is not hot enough to
cook, and should only be used to keep hot,
cooked food warm for serving.
Note: On the slow cook setting, the maximum combined COOK/KEEP WARM time is 24 hours. For
example if the slow cook time selected was 16 hours, the maximum keep warm time would be 8 hours.

Vide light will flash in the screen to indicate
How to use the Sous Vide menu
the set temperature has not yet been
reached, and the time :symbol won’t flash
to indicate the timer has not begun. When
the selected temperature is reached, the
unit will beep 3 times to indicate the set
temperature has been reached, the Sous
Vide light will stop flashing and the unit is
ready for the food.
7. Carefully remove the lid. With a pair of
tongs gently place the sealed food pouches
in the water ensuring the water level does
not exceed the MAX line, and that the food
is covered by water. Replace the lid. For
further information regarding sealing your
food, see Cooking menus overview on page 9.
TIP: You can slot the sealed food pouches
vertically in the slots of the rack to ensure the
food is separated and that water can circulate

With your Espressions Duo you can create
a wide variety of meals. Various foods take
different times to cook perfectly to your
individual taste, so sometimes it may take a
little trial and error to get the cooking times
right for you.
Capacity
• Don’t overfill or under fill your Espressions
Duo unit. Ensure the level is between the
FILL (minimum) and MAX markings on the
inside of the cooking pan. When using the
sous vide menu, always ensure that the
water covers the food pouches. When using
the slow cooker, always ensure that liquid
covers the food.
• To speed up the time needed for the unit to
reach the desired Sous Vide temperature, fill
with warm (not hot) water.
Food
• Cuts of Meat. Sous Vide and Slow Cooking
are perfect for the cheaper, tough cuts
of meats, as the lengthy cooking process
tenderises these cuts and enhances the
Cleaning should only be carried out when the
Espressions Duo is switched off and the plug
removed from the socket. Allow the water to
cool, and then pour out. Do not leave water
sitting in the pan. Allow the unit to completely
cool before cleaning.
Do not use the removable cooking pan on
the stovetop, inside a microwave oven or
inside an oven. Use the pan only inside the
Espressions Duo unit.
The lid and the removable cooking pan are
dishwasher safe for added convenience. Place
the lid on the upper rack of your dishwasher.
To remove food that is cooked onto the
bottom of the removable cooking pan, soak
the pan in warm water before cleaning. Dry
thoroughly before replacing the pan in the
unit.
Wipe the exterior of the Espressions Duo
with a damp cloth and polish dry. DO NOT
use harsh abrasives, scourers or chemicals
to clean any part of the Espressions Duo as
these will damage the surfaces.
Do not immerse the Espressions Duo unit in
water or place in a dishwasher.
Care and cleaning
flavours. Note that thinner cuts of meat will
cook more quickly.
• Evenly cooked food. To ensure food cooks
evenly in the same amount of time,
we recommend food is cut to similar
thicknesses/sizes.
Lid
• Condensation can accumulate on the inside
of the lid, reducing your vision. Carefully
tilt the lid away from you so that the
condensation falls back into the pan.
• Lifting the lid. Both Sous Vide - slow cooker
cooking methods use low temperatures
and therefore they do not recover lost heat
quickly. If you need to lift the lid, do so
quickly to minimise heat loss.
Food Safety Guidelines for Sous Vide Cooking
CAUTION. Food cooked using the Sous Vide
method of cooking is not recommended for
consumption by those in an ‘at risk’ category
(low immune deficiency);
Hints and tips

17
• Pregnant women
• Small children
• Elderly
• Those suffering from illness/disease
Slow Cooking
• If you are slow cooking, you may wish
to brown your meats first in a frypan.
Browning meat prior to slow cooking not
only gives your food great colour, it also
seals in the juices and flavours and keeps
the meat tender.
• Slow Cooking prevents evaporation,
resulting in the flavours and juices being
maintained. Keep this in mind when creating
your own recipes, as you may not require as
much liquid as you would when using other
cooking methods.
Slow Cooking roasts
• You can roast a whole chicken as well as
whole pieces of meat, such as lamb, beef,
veal and pork by using the Slow Cook menu.
• Roasts can be cooked without the addition
of liquid as they will release juices while
cooking. These juices are great to make
sauces and gravies.
• Roasting in the Slow Cooker will not brown
your meat or chicken, as roasting in an oven
does. If you want your roast to be golden,
we recommend browning the meat first for
a few minutes in a frypan to sear the meat,
and then slow cook.
• Approximate cooking times for well done:
LOW 2 hours per 500 g
HIGH 1 hour per 500 g
Note: Unlike roasting in your oven, meat
cooked to well done in the slow cooker will
still be very tender.
Slow Cooked roast chicken
• Wash the chicken in cold running water and
pat dry with an absorbent paper towel. Rub
with a little olive oil and season all over with
salt and pepper (or any other spices you
wish). Using a frypan, brown the chicken
for a few minutes on each side until golden,
then slow cook.
Note: Ensure chicken is cooked all the way
through by inserting a skewer or knife into
the meatiest part of the chicken. The juices
will be clear when the chicken is cooked
through. If the juices are pink, a little more
cooking is required.
Slow Cooked stocks
• With your Espressions Duo you can easily
make stocks. Many slow cooker recipes use
stock as part of the ingredients. A good
stock is also the base of a great soup. Stocks
can be bought at supermarkets; however,
nothing beats the flavour of a homemade
stock.
• Making your own stock is a great way to use
up bones or carcasses that would normally
be thrown away.
• There is no need to peel your vegetables
when making a stock. Just ensure you wash
them well before use.
• Fresh made stock will keep in the refrigerator
for up to 4 days, but can be frozen for up to
3 months.
• Always label and date your stock before
storing. It’s a good idea to freeze stock
in portioned sizes. So for example if you
generally use stocks in stews, casseroles,
curries etc, then freeze your stock in 250 ml
portions. If you tend to use your stock more
for gravies and sauces, then freeze it in
smaller 60 ml portions or even in ice cube
trays, so that you don’t need to defrost
large quantities at a time.
• To remove the excess fat, place the stock in
the fridge overnight, then skim the solidified
fat from the surface.

PROBLEM
The screen is blank.
Sous Vide light on the
control panel is flashing.
POSSIBLE REASON
The unit has no power.
The unit is in standby mode
as START button has not been
pressed within 20 minutes of
setting the program.
Flashing indicates the unit is
still gaining temperature..
SOLUTION
Check the cord is inserted into the machine, that
the power is switched on at the power outlet,
and that the POWER button on the unit has been
pressed.
Press the POWER button to turn back on and reset
your program and press START.
The flashing will stop when the set temperature
is reached. By pressing the TEMP button you can
see the current temperature which will give you
an idea of how much longer before the set
temperature is reached.
