Thermomètre à bonbons TP509

What do I have to do to get the resident chef in this house to try to make candy?! I got her this awesome thermometer, and not having a candy thermometer was always her biggest excuse to not try to make chocolate or fudge or anything like that. This one seems prett good too! Its stupid easy to use, you just push the power button to turh it on. Its starts out on Fahrenheit, and you press it again to change it to Celsius. You press it a final time to turn it off. It seems pretty sensitive and read the kitchen's air temp right. Now the resident chef says she's not interested in making any candy. Ah well.

I love that this clip has a space in it to fit over the lip of pots. Sometimes I use a pot that has a lip on it and the pencil style clip could not possibly clip on. I also like how the screen on this lollipop style thermo is BIG. I can read the numbers without having to lean over the range. It has an auto-off feature. I think it's 10 minutes, I wasn't paying attention. Regardless if it's in boiling oil or sugar, it turns itself off. So plan accordingly. My sugars boil on average 24 minutes, so I wait until I'm more than halfway there before clicking this on. Saves battery too. The battery that goes in this is an A76 LR44

This little item is so well presented! The shipping box was oversized and lined with air pillows. The product box is hard cardboard with clear graphics and type. (I mention this as a graphic artist who notices details that make a product shine.) The interior contains a product-protective shell and instructions that are easy to understand. It even includes the battery! Overall, you can just tell this manufacturer cares! I used the ThermoPro immediately to make toffee. The temp printout is big and clear. The clip is adjustable, up and down the shaft for needed depth. As a first time user, I would have liked a tip that it's a good idea to clip this onto a cold pot and adjust the depth (so it doesn't touch the bottom) and push the clamp all the way down so the unit doesn't move side to side. This thermometer is worthy of a 5-Star rating and is quality that you can give as a gift for someone who might like to try making candy, or deep-fried goodies, with precision.

LOOK at the photos! The thermometer was a game changer! 1st photo was WITHOUT the thermometer and the 2nd photo is how homemade peanut brittle should look!! It's not expensive and look at the difference!! Homemade Christmas gifts this year thanks to the thermometer I just purchased!! Highly recommended!!

I use this to monitor the water temperature for various teas and in yogurt making. For tea I have tried taking a reading and again , holding it in place, and attaching it to the spout lid. Not sure how often I would do that, would hate to damage the lid. I've discovered that it balances perfectly within the spout without attaching it anywhere. Initially I'd make sure that the sensor wasn't touching the bottom of the pot but now I can eyeball it accurately. I really like the easy and reliable on /off switch, and that it mercifully doesn't beep. Previously i used another brand programmable meat thermometer to monitor the temperature of my tea water and milk. It was driving me crazy, intermittently beeping, couldn't mute the sound, difficult to shut off. Also it cannot be attached to our be balanced on the pots. It turns off by itself after a while, which is a good thing. It's easy enough to turn it back on if you need to. Not sure if the falling temperature of the milk triggered it, or if it's on a timer. I would recommend.
