I want to add a dial thermometer to my MLT (keggle). What length probe would be the best? I think shorter would be better so it doesn't get in the way but longer to get more accurate readings. Would 6" get in the way too much? I'm not worried about hitting the probe with my mash paddle because I'm going to protect it with a piece of copper or stainless. I just don't want it to be an annoyance. I'll be recirculating too so maybe that would help with a shorter probe.
