I have a quick question. If I put a room temperature floating glass thermometer into boiling or near boiling water will it break? Is it better to put it in the water at the start and let them heat together?

Why on earth do you want to measure the temp of boiling or near boiling water?

abracadabra said:Besides it's only 212*F at standard pressure at sea level. Barometric pressure at your altitude determines the actual boiling point. At standard pressure the boiling point of water in Denver, CO. is 202*F.
