So my digital temp gauge died on me again when I put it in my mash to monitor the temps. It was never submersed but it freaked out somehow.
Sooooo, I want to add a permanent digital thermometer to my MLT but had some questions. Is it a good idea to drill a hole in the 10 gallon rubbermaid MLT I have? I don't want to make it lose any heat from having the thermo plugged into it.
Does it matter how long the temp probe is? I don't want to worry about hitting it with my mash paddle and breaking it. Also, does it matter if it is directly in the middle of the MLT or can it be lower and see have a correct reading?
Does anyone have any recommendations for a good digital probe or should I go with the analog? I like the idea of having a quick temp reading.
