Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of MIU France Instant Read Digital Cooking Thermometer, Black
Customer Review: Wonderful tool!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a fantastic thermometer. Yes, it may not be an "instant" reading; rather, it takes about 5-8 seconds to stabilize to a general temperature. It is not meant to be left inside the food in the oven... it says so specifically on the packaging. I don't think it would melt if you did that, but it would probably damage the LED screen.
Others have complained that it "only" reads up to 302 degrees, not 500. What are you going to be cooking that needs to be over 300 degrees anyway? It is not meant for testing the temperature of oil, water, etc... if you use the thermometer for its designated purpose (testing the temperature of meats), you'll never find anything faster and better for this price. The only flaw that I have found is that it is more difficult to use with thinner pieces of meat, like thinner steaks and boneless-skinless chicken breasts. The best way to test the temperature for these foods is to stick it in the end of the meat through to the middle. This could cause the loss of valuable juices though, so be warned.
One other issue I've found (which is simply caused by my stupidity) is that it can be easy to remember to turn off. I'm not entirely sure if it has an auto-off feature or not. It does come packaged with a separate battery though, which is nice of the company to do. So, just remember to turn it off after each use, and it should last several months to a year on one battery, depending on how often you use it.
Description of MIU France Instant Read Digital Cooking Thermometer, Black
Cook perfectly pink roasts and toast with wine served at ideal drinking temperature with this instant-read digital thermometer. After being inserted at least 1 inch into the food, the 4-3/4-inch stainless-steel probe accurately displays the temperature in just 8 seconds. One button changes the LCD display from Fahrenheit to Celsius, while another turns the device on and off. A rubber cap can be pried off in order to change the battery, while a plastic sheath with pocket clip lets the user keep the thermometer close at hand. To determine the accuracy of the thermometer, fill a container with chipped ice and water. Insert the probe 2 inches into the water without touching the container bottom. If the temperature reads less or greater than 32 degrees Fahrenheit, the thermometer can be recalibrated. By means of a small screwdriver, a button on the display top can be turned to the left to decrease, and to the right to increase the temperature reading. This thermometer ranges from a low of -58 degrees F(-50 degrees C) to +500 degrees F(+260 degrees C), and is covered by a 1-year warranty.Instant-Read
