How to Use a Folding Food Thermometer for Accurate Readings

Calibration
Right before any use of your folding food thermometer, there are certain steps that should be followed in order to ensure correct and precise readings. For most thermometers, a simple ice water calibration is recommended. Place ice cubes in a glass and fill it with cold water. Once that is done, insert the folding food thermometer probe into this ice water mixture without it touching the sides of the glass. It is recommended that most models are set up to be at zero at the thirty two degrees thing (0°C). If a Folding Food Thermometer isn’t resting at this temperature, necessary actions should be taken to adjust it with the provided screws. Regularly a thermometer should be recalibrated but most users forget to do this if they have dropped the movable thermometer or are not getting the same readings several times. 

Insertion Procedure
The correct positioning of a folding food thermometer inside the food is vital since readers can only take measurement after probes are secured inside the food. It is important to note here that the probe should be inserted at least two inches deep into the thickest area of food and again if measuring meat – bones should be avoided. The folding food thermometer probe should neither touch nor come close to other items which are capable of causing confusion about the true values. To measure temperature accurately and to avoid any mishaps, it is best to wait a few seconds before taking the reading. This will allow the folding food thermometer to get adjusted to the temperature of the food item’s inner layers.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Your folding food thermometer is a delicate piece of instrument such that, losing it for a long time or quite often can cause certain unwanted conditions. There are a few standard cleaning practices that should be follows, some of which include scrubbing and rinsing the thermometer. After removing the thermometer or the probe, fail to put the device into water. It could destroy the device’s internal parts. Wipe it with a wet piece of cloth, apply some mild detergent, and rinse it off and dry it at room temperature thereafter.
