New Sous Vide cooker on Kickstarter.

Hello, everyone! I was researching a DIY sous vide cooker when i came across this product on Kickstarter: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nomiku/nomiku-bring-sous-vide-into-your-kitchen
Seems like a simple and portable solution, unfortunately it wont be out for some time. Has anyone seen a DIY cooker with a similar design?
Thanks for the input!

Millionaire's Cherry Rhubarb Jam

A three to one ratio of rhubarb to cherries yields the perfect balance of tart and sweet. Half a vanilla bean and a generous splash of orange liqueur make for one fancy jam. It would be delicious over waffles with a dollop of crème fresh, or sandwiched in a biscuit with a wedge of brie. More

Homemade Wonton Soup

A classic wonton soup made with Chinese superior stock flavored with chicken, pork, ham, and shrimp. The wontons are stuffed with a mixture of pork and shrimp. The shrimp are brined in a solution of salt and baking soda to make them extra crisp. More

Spicy Coleslaw from 'Around the Southern Table'

Rebecca Lang's Spicy Coleslaw in Around the Southern Table is not your typical styrofoam cup of mayonnaise with a side of cabbage. Yes, the salad contains a bit of mayo, but the dressing is punched up with a generous pour of buttermilk and intense bursts of horseradish, hot sauce, mustard, and jalapeños. Said dressing clings perfectly to each piece of chopped red and green cabbage, grated carrot, minced red onion, and sliced scallion. More

Healthy & Delicious: Greek Yogurt Lemon Mousse

Light, airy, and fresh, this mousse made with Greek yogurt is perfect for warmer weather. Depending on your serving size, each portion falls between 100 and 135 calories, with virtually no fat, as well. Top it with a few berries, and it's a healthy dessert in every sense. Ultimately, I don't want (or need) to be cured of my lifelong M&M addiction. But it's desserts like these that make me feel a little better about it. More

Carrot Cake Ice Cream Sandwiches

Ice cream sandwiches can be a tricky thing to get just right, since your filling needs to be soft enough to bite through but not melt immediately and your "bread" needs to stay firm but not rock-hard straight from the freezer. Luckily, the cream cheese semifreddo is so airy from the whipped eggs and so creamy from the cream cheese that it's scoopably soft straight from the freezer, and the carrot cake is so moist that it thaws almost immediately upon removal from the freezer.
