Question: What Are The Temperature Equivelents For The Settings On A Slow Cooker?

February 10, 2010
Most slow cookers I'm familiar with have settings like Low-Medium-High. What do those levels equate to in degrees Fahrenheit? Does it vary much from manufacturer to manufacturer?

Ditto that it varies - I heated up the slow cooker with water in it and then measured the temperature. My low was 130 and my high was 150. Perfect for sous vide, I think, and cheaper than the sous vide supreme!

My experience is it varies by manufacturer. I've just used an instant read thermometer until I get a feel for how a new one heats up.
