How To Check Bath Temperature

[2007]

[Aajonus]

You can have a thermometer.

[Kathy]

They're not very accurate, the one I've been looking at.

[Aajonus]

Well, get one that's for cooking. What I use is a temperature one that you take the temperature on your tongue. Those are usually pretty accurate.

[Attendee]

The swimming pool ones are not accurate, they're often 2° lower than what they should be. So, you can't go by it.

[Aajonus]

No, you can't go by that.

[Attendee]

Are cooking thermometer that reliable?

[Aajonus]

Unless you used them for cooking, they will be reliable, unless you've used them for cooking. Once they've gone through a high temperature change, they go off about 2° or 3°.

Even up to 6°, 7°. Depends upon it.
