Taylor Programmable Digital Candy and Deep Fry Thermometer with Green Light Alert Display, Long Stem, and Adjustable Pan Clip, White

It works well I have had it for a while and it still works.

Love it the digital display is easy to read and it is easy to operate for us older folks I use it to make huge and caramel

This has become essential in my kitchen. I use this for everything from chicken to yogurt. Gives you fahrenheit and celsius so it would actually be a really good homeschooling tool that's what I use it for as well it seems to be very accurate, it's lightweight, easy to read.

There's nothing wrong with this product. I don't like that there's no way to turn it OFF - you just have to let it go to sleep after using it. Not a big deal. But I only use these for candymaking ... and temperatures have to be so exact (if you miss by two or three degrees, you may have to throw the batch out and start over). I had a CDN model that set off an alarm three degrees ahead of the target temperature, which I loved! Went through three of them. But this fall, when it was time to replace it AGAIN, the CDN was twice the price of the Taylor. So I bought the Taylor. Again, it's fine, there's nothing wrong with it, although I'll bet the pot clip won't last a year. Having now missed the exact temp on two batches of caramels, I'm ordering another CDN no matter what the price is.

I had decided to try to make my grandmother's homemade peanut brittle, which requires a candy thermometer; this one worked perfectly, it was accurate, lightweight, and very easy to use.

Su lectura es muy rápida

I tested this in ice water, and it read 34 degrees F. Then I looked up the boiling temperature for my elevation and it read the correct temperature in boiling water (208F at my elevation). I tried following the directions that come with it to calibrate it in ice water, and it messed up the boiling temperature by a lot. I tried calibrating it again, and it thankfully errored out and re-set itself, so at least it measures accurately at higher temperatures. I don't recommend trying to calibrate it. I also tested it against a couple of mercury oral thermometers at around 100F, and it read one degree too high. I put a sticker on the back reminding me how much to subtract at 100 and 34 degrees. I'm using this for L. Reuteri yogurt making, so I need to know the accurate temperature at both 180F for pasteurizing non-UHT milk for 20 minutes, and temperatures around 100F for culturing. This thermometer is working for my purposes, especially at the higher temperature. It clips nicely to my pot, which helps so much. I also find it helpful that it shows the temperature to the nearest tenth of a degree. Even if it is not perfectly accurate to that level, it still helps to see the tenths so you can see if the temperature is going up or down.

Received opened and in non- working condition. Looks as though item is used and abused.

Es un buen producto, no he tenido ningún problema con él hasta el momento.

Lo utilizo para pasteurizar Y no es resistente al agua

to confirm whether or not it's accurate, I tested it in frozen and boiling water, and the readings were within the error margins of 0 and 100 C (that's 100 and 212 for you fahrenheit speaking people). The clamp holds it in place pretty well and the depth of the top can also be adjusted with ease.
