Anova Mini Lite – Film Development Water Bath Heater

Anova Precision Cooker Mini Lite – Precise Temperature Control for C-41 Film Processing, BW also. 

The Anova Precision Cooker Mini Lite is a practical tool for maintaining stable temperatures during film development, especially for C-41 color processing, which requires precise temperature control for consistent results.

Originally designed for sous vide cooking, this device circulates water and regulates its temperature to create a uniform water bath. It can be used to keep bottles or containers of photographic chemistry at the required temperature, including approximately 38°C (100.4°F) for standard C-41 processing, depending on the chemistry kit manufacturer's instructions.

Compact and easy to use, the Anova Precision Cooker Mini Lite is an interesting solution for film photographers looking to improve temperature stability and achieve more consistent, repeatable development results.

Ideal for:

• Maintaining photographic chemistry at the desired temperature.
• Preparing a water bath for C-41 color film processing.
• Stabilizing chemical solutions before and during development.
• Creating a more consistent workflow in a home darkroom.

Note: Use the device to heat and circulate the water in the bath, not directly in the chemical solutions. Check the compatibility of your containers, the required immersion depth, and the manufacturer's instructions before use.
