Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Taylor Classic Cappuccino Frothing Dial Thermometer
Customer Review: Good Product; Slow To Measure Temperature
Summary: 3 Stars
In my short time using this thermometer, it does not read the milk temperature as quickly as I think it should. What this means is that you could accidentally scald frothed milk if the temperature rises too much above 160 degrees. If the thermometer takes a little extra time to register the current temperature, you could heat the milk too much. With this in mind, I generally pull a pitcher of milk off the steam as soon as the needle enters the 'zone' (140-160).
This thermometer works fine for me so I am not at all discouraged with this purchase. The clip holds to the milk pitcher very well and allows me to place the probe to the depth that is optimal for my frothing vessel.
Customer Review: better stuff out there
Summary: 3 Stars
there are better thermometers out there. temperature gauge is only from 180 to 120. the clip is weak and doesnt hold well. previously I used a office paperclip and a regular digital thermometer and I will return to that setup. check alton brown for the paperclip and thermometer technique.Customer Review: Taylor Classic Cappuccino Frothing Dial Thermometer
Summary: 3 Stars
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: Average at best
Summary: 3 Stars
This thermometer does the job. However, the graduated marks stop at 180 degrees rather than >212. Without the upper scale, you can't tell how accurate this thermometer actually is.Customer Review: worked good for a while, then it died
Summary: 2 Stars
after three months of use, it stopped registering tempurature. while it worked, though, it was a "must-have" for excellant froth. I would recommend getting *a* thermometer, not necessarily this one (unless mine was a dud)
