In this video, we discuss the accuracy of an analog oven thermometer. Thermometers are not intended to be left in the oven when cooking; doing so will cause the thermometer to become less accurate over time.
Any good Refrigerator/Freezer thermometers you recommend? I looked up a couple Rubbermaid, Taylor keep popping up but all the reviews say they are not accurate🥴
hi there! we generally use a laser thermometer. We will open a jar of pickles in the refrigerator, and point the laser inside the jar. This gives you an accurate reading of the current temperature in the refrigerator. Use something like this: amzn.to/409dexX
i used a cheapo oven thermometer just like Fred shows and it was not accurate at all - oven set to 350 for over an hour, cheapo read 425, IR digital read 320 - which one is accurate?
Hello! It's hard to say for sure which one is more accurate. In theory, digital will be more accurate and faster. You'd need to introduce a 3rd thermostat to check these two that you're questioning.
We suppose. Just as long as it can take the heat of the oven it might work. Though, I would recommend using a thermometer made specifically for the oven.
As soon as my oven was done preheating I checked my thermometer and it was reading 425 for a 350 setting 🥴 so now I'll need to bake it longer so I can recalibrate my oven sigh....
NO, the problem is not with the user but rather thermometers that are cheaply made. I tried them from the cheap to the fancy and the former are not only inaccurate but also very slow to warm up to the
