Description

This hardworking thermometer from Taylor is a great tool for every home cook. It gives you rapid temperature readings, has a wide temperature range and can hold readings even after its been removed from your food. This thermometer is also IPX5 water-resistant for worry-free handwashing after use. Using advanced thermocouple technology, this Taylor thermometer reacts faster to changes in temperature and gives a more stable reading than traditional thermometers. It provides a stabilized reading in 6 seconds or less in food, reading temperatures ranging from -40°F to 572°F.

The ultra-thin 1½-mm tip leaves a much smaller hole in your food, so fewer flavorful juices will escape as you check the temperature throughout the cooking process. Also features a HOLD function, which stores the temperature of your food on the bright red backlit display even when removed. The 4" stainless steel probe folds into thermometer casing for storage and acts as the ON/OFF switch.

QUALITY AND PRECISION: Taylor has been making precision products for kitchen measurement for over 170 years, using only the highest quality components for accurate temperature tracking. Measure precisely in both Fahrenheit and Celsius units.

CONVENIENT FEATURES: HOLD function locks temperature into place on the display even when the thermometer is removed from the food.

HIGHLY ACCURATE: Extra-wide temperature range: -40F to 572F / -40C to 300C. IMPORTANT: The F/C switch is located in the battery compartment.

BATTERY INCLUDED: Operates on one CR2032 battery (included).

HELPFUL HINTS: Digital thermometers are NOT meant to be left in food during cooking. The plastic and electronic components could be damaged with excessive heat.

NOTE: The display will go dim during use to conserve battery life, active temperature monitoring is still occurring - press the HOLD button to reactivate the display.

Q: How do you change from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

submitted by Mnm - 8 months ago
  • A: To switch to C, remove the battery cover and battery to access the switch, located in the hole under the C/F marking on the therm case. Move the switch with a small tool. Replace battery & cover.

    submitted byblh224 - 6 months ago
  • A: Hello! It's inside the battery compartment. The thermometer is preset to Fahrenheit. To switch to Celsius, remove the battery cover and battery to access the switch, located in the hole under the C/F marking on the thermometer case. Move the switch with a small tool. Replace the battery and battery cover. Hope that helps. If you have additional questions, please reach back out. Thanks!

Q: How do you recalibrate the probe? It started reading way off.

submitted by Sarah - 3 years ago
  • A: Hi Sarah, Here are the directions for recalibrating your thermometer. 1. Fill a container with crushed or chipped ice. 2. Add water slowly until it overflows. 3. Add more ice until it is packed tightly to the bottom of the container, allowing excess to overflow. 4. Insert the stem of the thermometer at least 2” into the container, making sure it does not touch the sides or bottom of the container, and allow it to stabilize for 5 minutes. 5. If the temperature reading is 32°F (0°C), the thermometer is accurately calibrated. 6. If it is necessary to adjust the thermometer, press and hold the “Hold” button for 3 seconds. 7. The display will show “CALu” and enter user calibration mode. 8. When the LCD flashes, press and hold the “Hold” button for another 3 seconds to adjust the calibration value. 9. The thermometer is now calibrated. 10. If the “Hold” button is not press within 5 seconds when the LCD is flashing, the calibration mode is automatically exited back to normal operation. If you have any other questions, please reach back out. Thanks!

Kelsey - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
First one we got was dead on opening - was showing a maxed out temperature error of hundreds of degrees in something that was barely 100 degrees. Returned that one as a dud. Replacement one ate through batteries like crazy, as in one a month after very little use. That one then somehow got water inside and fried out after again only a couple months. Complete waste of money.

It stopped working after a few months. Turns on but doesn’t change the temperature. Also, it was annoying when it turned off a second after reading meat temperature.

Unlike better thermometers, this thermometer will not stay on and continuously monitor temperatures. Just when you need it, it turns off. Do yourself a favor and get a better meat thermometer.

Completely inaccurate, barely works, I have to keep pushing the battery back in because it keeps falling out. How do you put something is defective on the market for people to buy… make it make sense. Can’t return it because I threw away the box. This is what I get for not reading the reviews throughly.

LR - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
Lasted 10 months. At first I thought it just needed a battery, which is fair. But nope, the internal switch when flip it out had failed. I tried to take it apart to see if i could save it somehow and I got it to kinda work again but not reliably enough. Pretty disappointing. Will not be purchasing this "flip out" style again. It's an unnecessary point of failure that ended up failing as expected.

Completely unpredictable operation. So far I can only take I one temp and have to fold it up and open it again to reset it for it to work again. Even then it doesn’t always work. Frustrating piece of equipment.
