Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Taylor Classic Cappuccino Frothing Dial Thermometer
Customer Review: I kept it.
Summary: 3 Stars
After using this thermometer to check the temperature at which water boils at sea level, I determined that it literally reads 20 degrees lower than actual temperature.
I considered sending it back, but determined that the cost of shipping wouldn't be worth it. Instead, I just heat my milk to what the thermometer reads as 140 degrees (which is actually 160 degrees), and I have frothy goodness every time. I also appreciate that this thermometer clips onto the side of my pitcher and adjusts to whatever level of milk I am frothing.
My only other beef is that the temperature range is so small. A clip-on thermometer would be great for candy-making, but it would need to register past 300 degrees (this thermometer only reads to 180--actually 200, of course).
In conclusion, it's cheap, it's convenient, and (with some very simple math and my stainless steel Aerolatte milk frother), I am able to make mounds of frothy milk for my latte.
Customer Review: Works great but you will tire of needing it
Summary: 5 Stars
Great gift for someone else. You will use this the first 10 times and then just wing it after as its pretty easy to get the hang of it and no longer need this. Mine got used about 10 times and is now in a drawer somewhere. Nice though, well built.Customer Review: Taylor Classic Cappuccino Frothing Dial Thermometer

Works well but the clip could be firmer and I'd recommend that the shaded area showing the desired temperature be red or light blue. The yellow is too light against the white background.Customer Review: Cappuccino Thermometor
Summary: 4 Stars
I like the large clearly maked dial. The clip that holds it to the decanter is fairly tight but you have to hold it when you pour the milk into your coffee mug or remove it before doing so. Much better than the first thermometor I bought.Customer Review: Arrived but does not work

Not worth the hassle involved to return product, will buy at the store next time. Not Amazon's fault!
