If that’s not enough, there’s also the ability to create a new preset. For smoking, we needed to set a high and low temperature. For foods like pork, chicken, turkey, fish, and hamburger, there’s just one temperature, but it can be set higher or lower. Clicking on the edit button for some foods, like beef, veal, and lamb, will show the suggested temperatures from rare to well-done and the ability to customize them. When setting the desired temperature, the app has a reasonably long list of foods with suggested temperatures. The app is a free download, and it pairs easily with the base unit and shows the current probe temperatures along with the chosen food temperature if it has been set up. The Spruce Eats / Donna Currie App: So many choices The app shows both temperatures at once, though. While it was nice that both temperatures were shown, there were times we wanted to pause the display to show just one of the temperatures. The dot moves slightly to the right when it’s showing the temperature for the right probe. A small dot appears in the upper left corner when the temperature is for the left probe. When both probes are in use, the display changes to show each temperature for a very short time. A strong magnet on the back let us attach the base to convenient magnetic items, but we would have appreciated an easy way for it to stand up on a table. When the base is on, a short press of the button turns on the backlight, which glows orange to make the display easier to see in poor light. Since there are only two probes, it’s not too difficult to remember which is which, even without the beads.Ī button on top of the base turns the base on or off. Since the beads move freely, they didn’t always stay where we wanted them, but it’s better than nothing. One thing we appreciated was that the probes are color-coded on both ends, with two beads that slide along the wire to rest near the probe or near the base. The base unit resembles an old-fashioned alarm clock with bells on the sides of the top handle, for a cute look.
