The subject says it all. I have a kettle with a thermometer, a brewers edge thermometer, a floating thermometer, a digital probe thermometer and a digital probe thermometer with the long cord on it that's separate from the display unit. 16 degrees F separate the highest from the lowest - WTF!!
Being a new all-grain brewer, this is really sapping my confidence Has anyone else noticed any similarly off thermometers? And here I thought they were pretty basic devices with an assumed level of accuracy. MOst disconcerting is the probe that alarms when a safe for consumption temperature has been reached...it seems to be 10 degrees hotter on average than three of the other four which have reached a general consensus. That means when it tells me my meat is 150, it's really 140!!
