I cant seem to answer my question with the search function so Im throwing in the towel.. sorry if this is answered somwhere else.
Im looking at buying a new thermometer to replace the glass one I broke last session.
Seems like everyone loves the thermapen, but to me it seems like that short little probe would make measuring your mash temp a little difficult (but thats because I was told you need a long stem thermometer to take readings at all levels of the mash).
Is this an issue for you thermapen users (or anyone else using a short stem thermometer).
any help would be appreciated.
p.s. Im thinking about popping for this one-- http://www.thermoworks.com/products/low_cost/rt301wa.html
but wanted to make sure I didnt need to go for the $40 12 inch stem version.
