## Questions & Answers

**Q: Any demarcations for soft ball, hard ball stages?**
A: Sorry, no. We're disappointed with this thermometer in spite of mostly good reviews, which is why we bought it. We wanted to get away from the foot-long, ruler-like, alcohol style because our old one separated (the liquid inside the glass) and was impossible to shake down and read. This one seems to give accurate readings, but the dial is too small and the clip is terrible, poor design, too loose and leaves the stem in the middle of the pan, in the way of the spoon when stirring. We went back to the alcohol-style from Williams Sonoma and prefer it. If you really want this dial type, stop by and we'll be glad to give you ours since we don't use it for anything.

**Q: Can you use this for meat?  What's the difference with another type of thermometer?**
A: I suppose you could since the temperature goes to 400F, but the end of the probe is rounded so it might be difficult to put into meat.  I was looking for an easier-to-read candy thermometer, and this is perfect and is designed to fit on the side of the saucepan with the probe in the pan.

**Q: What is the minimum amount of liquid needed to get an accurate reading on this thermometer?**
A: Liquid has to come to the bottom of the sensor. So far, I have been able to use as little as 1 inch or maybe 1.5 inches of oil. You don't want the sensor to touch the bottom of your cooking utensil for sure.

**Q: Where is this made?**
A: Doesn't matter where it's made, this is not accurate, slow to show temp, and clip design is bad. We wasted $ on several of these for candy making before buying this instant read thermometer. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00S93EQUK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 
It's more expensive, but reads fast and is accurate. We could have spent less total money (on both the Taylor thermometers and ingredients) if we'd bought it in the first place.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seems quite accurate and the price is right
*by M***N on June 3, 2012*

This little thermometer is intended for candy making and deep fat frying. I picked one up because my large candy thermometer is about a foot long and awkward to manage in a small pot. The materials and build quality seem quite good. The stainless steel stem can be covered with a plastic tube for storage. On the outside of the tube are temperature translations in both Fahrenheit and Celsius of vague terms like "soft ball" and "hard crack." Quite handy because there really are no commonly agreed upon meanings for those terms and, when making candy, boiled frosting, etc. missing the target by more than a few degrees can lead to unsatisfactory results.The thermometer is not advertised as water proof so be careful not to immerse it when washing the stem. A feature not seen often in thermometers in this price range is the ability to calibrate the dial. Happily, when I compared it at several temperatures against my CDN commercial candy thermometer, I found no point between 200F and 300F where the two differed by as much as five degrees. The temperature measurements seem to be both accurate and linear.To the extent that there is room for improvement, it would be in the pan clip. It works fine but you don't position it quite as you think you might from looking at it. You'll want to play with it for a minute or so with an empty pan so you catch on to how it should be positioned. Once in place, I found it quite stable.Bottom line? Well made, accurate, capable of calibration, a little more expensive than some other dial candy thermometers but this is an area where you get what you pay for. Readily recommended for the home cook.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Product
*by K***W on December 18, 2010*

Very well made, has the feel of a quality product. Temperature able to be adjusted so that even if the read gets off over time, turning a bolt on the back will re-calibrate it for you.If you are having problems with the clamp I'm guessing you are pulling it into position rather than pushing. The way the clamp attaches to the rod, pulling it into position will make the clamp loose and unable to hold the pot well. That may not make sense until you have the thermometer in hand, but believe me when I say the clamp works great.The only downside this has is shared with all dial thermometers I've seen, which is that the degree marks are close together and makes estimation necessary (but only slightly more so than the traditional thermometer types). More than makes up for it in how easy it is to see a dial however.The needle most definitely does not get in the way.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A quality thermometer should arrive properly calibrated!
*by P***A on February 5, 2016*

Appears quite solid, but when I tested it in boiling water at sea level, it read 200 degrees, not 212. I fixed it by turning the nut on the bottom with a pair of needle nose pliers, but CIA should not be selling miscalibrated products, nor should they assume their customers are all handy.UPDATE 1/30/2017 This is a great thermometer. Much more solid than any of my previous dial thermometers, easy to read, easy to clean. I've raised my rating from a 3 to a 4. It would have been a five if not for the initial miscalibration.
