Plastic Sleeve
The plastic storage sleeve keeps your thermometer clean and ready to use at all times, and limits the risk of accidental cross-contamination. A built-in clip makes it easy to secure to a shirt or a pocket as you move around the kitchen.
How to recalibrate
Since the cheese-making process happens at temperatures similar to our healthy body temperatures, a good-quality medical thermometer can be used to calibrate your thermometer.
- Run warm water between 88-98F into a container deep enough to immerse both thermometers.
- Place thermometers in the water, and check temperature readings once they have stabilized.
- If your new thermometer is not reading at the same temp as the medical thermometer, locate the nut found under the dial head.
- Using a wrench, turn the nut clockwise or counterclockwise as needed until the needle reads the same temperature as the medical thermometer.
- Repeat this process as needed.
