Q: Can i measure the temp of the water coming out of a tap with this

submitted by Mark - 15 days ago

  • A: Thanks for reaching out! This thermometer is designed specifically for high temps and heating up slowly to withstand things like heavy sugar syrups and deep frying. Hot tap water usually stays around 120F, so it will barely register on the bottom of the thermometer range, making it difficult to get an accurate reading. For measuring water temperature, a Taylor digital thermometer will give you a much faster and more accurate result. If you have additional questions, please reach back out, happy to help!

Q: What do I do if I break it and the liquid leaks out? How do you suggest cleaning? Is it mercury? Thank you!

submitted by How to clean - 4 years ago

  • A: The Taylor candy thermometer is a non-mercury thermometer. The tube should not break under normal conditions. Be sure to let the thermometer cool completely before cleaning. The liquid is alcohol based and can be cleaned with normal countertop cleaners.

    Temperature not accurate

    This thermometer is well constructed but the temperature reading on the one I bought was not accurate. Boiling water at sea level should be 212 degrees fahrenheit and this thermometer read 206. Just a heads up that you may need to calibrate your thermometer!

    Clip is very bad

    Thermometer works well but the clip is horrible. It is very loose and does not hold the thermometer above the pan bottom.

    Good for Deep Frying

    Haven’t used for making candy, but it works good for deep frying and making beer. Just a little annoying to clean afterwards.

    Inaccurate

    It is terribly inaccurate. Have had several cheap candy thermometers for making caramel. The others didn't last but were more accurate. This thermometer is a good 20 degrees off, which is huge is candy making

    One small issue...

    This thermometer performed flawlessly. We bought this to make homemade caramels. It is worthnoting that the thermomter has a temperature noted for "caramel", 340°, that is about 100° too hot for making that kind of candy. In fact, the correct temperature is listed on the back of the package.

    Numbers came off immediately

    Only used a couple times, and the bottom half of numbers and lines are completely gone. Obviously I only wash it by hand, but this is ridiculous. It’s useless to me without the actual temperatures.
