🌡️ Organic B60804 1600 Liquid Thermometer Immersion: Accurate Temperature Measurement for Various Applications Review

Bought two, 150°C and 250°C. Both are garbage. I checked the calibration at 0 and 100 degrees C. 150°C deviated by -2 and +3 respectively, and 250°C was normal at 0 but +5 at 100°C. Size as described. Feels a bit cheap but would be fine if it wasn't turned off.

Although I was concerned it would arrive broken like other customers have experienced, mine arrived well and works great. I have checked the accuracy of the temperature reading and it is within 1°C of my temperature sensor. I have to say that although it wasn't packaged very well, I was lucky that it didn't break during transport.

I was concerned if this would work in the shallow depths of the liquids I normally measure (for confectionery R&D - sometimes as little as 0.5 inch deep) . it actually seems to work best when only the "bulb" is in the liquid. However, the temperature of boiling water has been measured up to 107 °C. This is a pretty big mistake. I tried to take photos but the camera kept floating. I'll see if I can get it to work by testing the caramelizing sugar (it starts browning immediately at 160C). One by…
