Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Taylor Classic Instant-Read Pocket Thermometer
Customer Review: Excellent for a great French pressed coffee
Summary: 5 Stars
Everyone talks about how convenient, versatile and simple this little thing is. It's great.
Information you might wonder about, and my coffee method:
- Size: It's about the length of a ball-point pen, and comes with a holder that looks like one. The head is about the size of a quarter.
- Speed: The needle moves a lot faster than the liquid in a candy thermometer. Instant-read it's not, unless you mean that you can instantly read the temperature after the needle stops moving. But it's still pretty fast, and as you see the needle slow down, you get a pretty good idea of where it's going to stop. Kind of like knowing where you'll stop when you hit the brakes. So, it gets more useful as you get used to it.
- Accuracy: I tried it with boiling water, and with an ice-water mix that had been shaken around. It's pretty accurate - accurate enough for most uses.
- Coffee: I use it mostly for making French pressed coffee. If you put boiling water in coffee grinds, you will likely get a bitter brew. I pick the pot right before it reaches a boil and use this little device to read 205 degrees F. Drop the water into a french press containing coarse grounds, and four minutes later you have excellent coffee. Thanks to this little guy I discovered that eyeballing the water in the kettle is not a good way to figure out the right temperature.
