Me: Sets temperature to 85 °C and turns on Anova. A few minutes later: Anova: “BEEP! Your water is at 85 °C!” Me: “Thank you. Time to put the jars into the pot.” A few minutes later: Anova: “BEEP! The water is back at 85 °C now.” Me: “Thank you, that’s good to know.” 45 seconds later: Anova: “BEEP! The water was at 85 °C and then briefly dropped down to 84.5 °C. But I brought it back up to 85 °C for you again.” Me: “Thank you, that was very diligent of you.” 25 seconds later: Anova, with a proud intonation: “BEEP! Water temperature adjusted back to nominal after brief 0.5 °C drop!” Me, patting the Anova on the head: “Good work Anova, atta boy!” 50 seconds later. Anova: “BEEP! It’s happened _again_! But don’t you worry, I’ve taken care of it for you.” Me: “Yeah, right, thanks.” 20 seconds later: Anova: “BEEP! I’m still looking after your water temperature for you.” Me: “Right, that’s your job. It’s why I bought you. Keep doing it please. No need to keep telling me about it. I trust you!” 17 seconds later: Anova, wagging its tail: “BEEP! Still doing my job, in case you were wondering…” Me: “Ok, listen, you really can just do all this without telling me each time. Please don’t.” Five minutes of blissful silence. Anova: “BEEP! It’s been a long time since we had a chat. Are you sure you are not getting lonely? By the way, I’m still keeping your water warm for you…” Me: “I didn’t buy you to keep me company. Now shut up, please!” 33 seconds later: Anova: “BEEP! Despite being offended, I’m still doing my duty, like you asked.” Me: “Right. One more beep from you, and you are going to the planet of the mis-designed appliances (right next to the planet of the ballpoint life forms), and I’ll cook my eggs on the stove from now on.” 12 seconds later: Anova: “BEEP!” … “BEEP!” … “BEEP?” No answer because hypertension caused by the exchange made me pass out due to a ruptured brain aneurysm… --- _[View the full topic](https://community.anovaculinary.com/t/how-i-love-those-beeps/10387)._
