I am having a heck of a time finding something that I think SHOULD exist for cooking (and brewing). A wireless, remote thermometer. I can find them for pools, outdoor/indoor, and dozens of other things, but not for cooking or brewing. Anybody have any idea where to get one of these or what it would be called?
Description in my head:
Thermometer with a digital display with a temperature detector that can be dropped into a boiling, freezing, or other temperature fluid and left to check the temperature. Even better if it had some way to be hung from the side or was of a calibrated weight, so it would be somewhere in the middle, rather than near a wall of the container.
Why?
Well, I like to cook, some things require a particular temperature. For example, a mash. I would like something I can put inside and monitor the temperature of whatever I am cooking or mashing, without having to trail a wire out (melt if hot or let air/bacteria in). I know, this seems extravagant, but similar products exist that are reasonable prices so this theoretically should exist.
So, if anyone knows about something like this - please point me toward it, I want to check it out. If someone has actually used something like this, your experience warmly appreciated.
Thanks!
