This invention describes a slow cooker that uses a special electronic component called a Peltier device to both heat and cool the food. The cooking pot is uniquely designed with a curved bottom that fits precisely onto a matching curved surface of the Peltier device, allowing for very accurate temperature control.
Why it matters: Peltier device efficiency and cost have improved significantly since 2013, making them more practical for consumer appliances. Simultaneously, advancements in electronic control systems allow for more precise and affordable temperature regulation.
