Table comparison of available pin thermometers - tests

When choosing a pin thermometer, there are several key factors to consider:

  1. Temperature range: Make sure the thermometer you choose has a temperature range suitable for your needs. Some models can only measure temperatures up to 100°C, while others can measure temperatures up to 300°C or more.

  2. Measurement accuracy: For pin thermometers, measurement accuracy is usually expressed in degrees Celsius (°C). Choose a model that has the smallest possible measurement error to get the most accurate results.

  3. Response time: Response time determines how quickly the thermometer will react to temperature changes. The shorter the reaction time, the faster you will get the measurement result.

  4. Probe quality: make sure the thermometer probe is made of durable and easy-to-clean material, such as stainless steel.

  5. Display: choose a model with a bright, easy-to-read display that will allow you to easily read the measurement results.

  6. Additional functions: some models of pin thermometers may offer additional functions, such as automatic shut-off, hold function (holding the measurement result) or selecting temperature units (degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit).

  7. Price: choose a model that suits your needs and budget.

And here is a comparison table of the parameters of several food thermometers available on the market in Poland: May 2023

The pin thermometer offers a similar measurement range and accuracy as most other thermometers on the list, but its price is much lower. Response time may be a bit longer than on some other models, but still fast enough for kitchen purposes.

Compared to the TA-288, the pin thermometer is slightly less expensive, but has the same basic functions, such as automatic shutdown and digital display. However, it is worth remembering that the pin thermometer has a different form of probe, which can affect the convenience and precision of temperature measurement, especially for larger pieces of meat.

In conclusion, the pin thermometer is an option for those looking for a budget solution to accurately measure the internal temperature of meat. However, for those who want a more accurate and advancedfor those who want a more accurate and advanced food thermometer, they can choose more advanced models such as the Thermoworks Thermapen or ThermoPro TP20, which offer many additional features such as programmable temperature alarms and a timer.

Choosing the best food thermometer depends on individual needs, budget and the type of culinary tasks we will be dealing with.

Our choice is: TA-288
