About Combustion Inc.: Who are you people?Updated 10 months ago

Combustion Inc. is a team of people who love to cook. We spend our time designing, engineering, and manufacturing products that make cooking easier for everyone.

We want to help you cook better. To be able to fearlessly master your favorite meals. We want to put juicy pork chops and decadent beef wellington back on the menu. 

It all started with Chris Young. He’s our founder, an author (look up Modernist Cuisine: the Art and Science of Cooking), the co-founder of ChefSteps, and the inventor of the Joule sous vide circulator. Before that, he was the head development chef at Heston Blumenthal’s renowned Fat Duck restaurant.

He’s been combining his love of science, technology, and cooking for nearly 20 years. Now he really wants a smarter thermometer in his kitchen. That’s what we’re building. For Chef Young, and for all of us.
