    What type of thermometer do you brewers use, I have bought used and returned 3 digital ones with the cable probes so far (7 months) My kettles have old school ones but I like having the digital one in my mash tun (48 liter cooler).
    anyone have a suggestion on a good reliable digital?

    A quick read digital thermometer from BBQ shop :eek: i recieved it as a gift and thought id match it against my slow read digital thermometer anf guess what both were withing .2c of one another.

    So i use the bbq thermometer 3 second read time;).

    Im not super fussed about mash temps though "within the degree C is ok with me":p.

    A cheap one from Wal-Mart. I think it's a Q-tech model.
