Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Thermapen Instant Read Thermometer (Blue) - Thermoworks
Customer Review: If you can afford it, this is the thermometer to own but in which color?
Summary: 5 Stars
I have both a standard dial "instant read" and digital thermometer before purchasing this one. Both got the job done but the Thermapen is now the only thermometer I use in the kitchen (my other one is red The Original Super-Fast Thermapen Instant Read Thermometer (Red) by Thermoworks ). It is easier to insert into whatever meat I am preparing. It leaves a very small hole so less juice run out and the hole is less noticeable. And with its large digital display, I no longer squint at a dial or small digital display when reading the temperature. And its quick and accurate reading makes getting back to cooking or eating that much faster. The auto shutoff helps save the battery life. My old digital thermometer takes tools to change the battery. No tools required to change the battery with the Thermapen.
PROS:
Very fast reading.
Large display.
CONS:
It's expensive (but worth it if you can and wish to afford it).
The replacement battery is a bit difficult to find. I was able to get one from a chain office supply store!
Description of Thermapen Instant Read Thermometer (Blue) - Thermoworks
Originally designed for professional users, the Super-Fast Thermapen is chosen by restaurant chains, health inspectors, quality managers and chefs all over the world. The clever pocket design replaces more costly and bulky handheld thermometers while using the same professional thermocouple technology. The Super-Fast Thermapen displays actual internal food or liquid temperatures in only 3 or 4 seconds. Other thermometers make you wait another 20 seconds or more to catch up to the Thermapen. That's a huge difference in a fast paced commercial kitchen or when you're over a hot grill. If you're cooking an expensive cut of meat you want a perfect outcome. You don't want a slow temperature reading that might be misinterpreted and your meat overcooked. The reduced-diameter needle tip of the Super-Fast model only requires about 1/8" immersion so you can take the temperature of even thin burger patties. And, you'll only leave a tiny, self-closing hole in your steak instead of the gaping "juice-drain" left by "digital BBQ forks" or the old dial-type meat thermometers. The Thermapen automatically comes on when you unfold the probe and it shuts off when you close it for storage. An auto-off feature will save your battery if you leave the probe open over 6 minutes. Each unit includes a battery, a wrist-strap and a certificate of calibration with actual test data to show your unit's accuracy at two temperatures.Instant-Read
