Madtermometer TFA-Dostmann 30.1018 -40 til 200 °C digital

The TFA-Dostmann 30.1018 is a digital food thermometer designed for quick and accurate temperature checks in liquids, powders and soft plastics. It features a long 125 mm probe for convenient insertion and a measurement range from -40 to 200 °C, making it suitable for a wide range of food preparation tasks. The instrument is supplied in a plastic case with a clip and is powered by an LR44 battery (1.5 V).

Advantages

The thermometer offers fast readings (measures per second), an IP65 jet water-proof rating for safe use in kitchen environments, and a clear digital display with ON/OFF and HOLD functions plus MAX-MIN memory. Measurement accuracy is ±0.8 °C (±1.8 °F) in the 0…+100 °C range, ±1 °C (±1.8 °F) from -20…0 °C, and ±1.5 °C (±2.7 °F) outside those ranges. The long stainless-style probe and compact housing enable practical handling and storage.

Suitable for

• Measuring temperatures in soups, boiling liquids and sauces
• Checking core temperatures of doughs, batters and semi-solid foods
• Testing temperature of powdered ingredients and soft plastics
• Kitchen and catering temperature control where quick spot checks are needed

How to use

Switch the thermometer on, insert the 125 mm probe into the product to be measured until the sensing tip reaches the desired depth, and wait for the display to stabilise (measurements update each second). Use the HOLD button to freeze a reading on the display. After measuring, wipe the probe clean and switch the device off to conserve battery. For liquids, ensure the probe connection area stays dry to maintain the IP65 protection.

Recommendations

For accurate core temperature readings, insert the probe into the thickest part of the food and avoid contact with cookware or the container bottom. Calibrate periodically if precise traceable results are required; store the thermometer in its plastic case when not in use.
