I have used my ebrewing setup a couple times for sous vide (heat meat for a long time at a controlled temp) and was thinking about getting one of the new immersion circulators from Anova or similar.

Basically you clamp it on a pot, heats water to a precise temp and circulates with a pump.
Has anyone tried to use one of these to control mash temps for small volume electric brewing (5 gallons or less)?
You would need a grain bag to prevent stuff from getting into the pump. It would take all day for this device to heat a large volume of water and it wouldn't be suitable for the boil.
