My other thermometer is on the fritz, im having some FG inconsistencies im looking to isolate, and I do a lot of cooking..

At least thats how I justified spending 86 bucks on a thermometer..or thermocouple rather...

I'm pumped. Cant wait til this thing is off my statement so I can really enjoy it.

I've been on the fence for the past couple of months on getting one. Perhaps if I read a post later this month about how your efficiency jumped by five points I'll pull the trigger too!

Ha...Im not worried about efficiency. I concerned with concistency of mash temps. My ability to hit them is only as good as the number on my thermometer.

Bought one several months ago for use in slow and low cooking on a Big Green Egg.

For my uses, they are worth every penny because of their nearly instant accuracy.

Now that I have joined the home brew community, the Thermapen takes on additional importance.

If you want to read the temperature of a material that you can poke a point into, and read that temperature quickly and with accuracy, the Thermapen is worth a good, hard, look at.

I love my thermapen. Had it for about 2 years. Priceless for brewing and cooking. You will be pleased.

2nd!! I have an old cooper I used for HVAC work that cost 700$ and the thermapen takes better temps. But lots has changed in the last 15years.
