How to Check and Recalibrate Your Thermometer
Recalibrating Your Thermometer
Since the cheese-making process uses select temperatures that are important for fermentation, it's a good idea to check and see if your thermometer is accurate. You don't want temperatures to be too hot as this may kill your culture and then not set up.
Thermometers can be off by as much as 5-10 degrees, so it's a good idea to check and recalibrate them for accuracy.
