Bluetooth Floating Thermometer

[fuggled]

Hi All,
Amazon have a Bluetooth floating thermometer for £50, reduced from £100. I might get one to sit in my FV during fermentation. I don't have a digital thermometer yet, and I don't like opening the FV loads to check temp, this seems like a good solution.
Just thought I'd mention it's half price.

I don't like the idea of the effect of the positive charge that may be passed onto the brew, why not just use a LCD strip on the side of the barrel ?

I've got an LCD strip... are they accurate? I always assumed they must be just a guide.

I've actually just read the reviews of this and one person says it reads 3 or 4 degrees higher than actual temp, which makes it pointless for brewing! Ignore me, just thought I'd had a lightbulb moment! Ha.

No no, it's a great idea but I was just thinking about costs, lcd strips don't need batteries...

I found mine to work for some time but I haven't the foggiest where it is now as have a few barrels

I bought two of theses and calibrated against the Inkbird both are 0.1 degree out.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/50-110-C-Digital-LCD-Thermometer-for-Refrigerator-Cars-UBreezer-Temperature-UB-/201812884272?hash=item2efcfc3b30:g:B3cAAOSwal5YDt0G

Thanks chaps, very interesting.

Yup Gerryjo, I have similar one! just slide it under the FV. Then it gives the lowest temp of the FV with no contamination,,,

Building one of these at the moment, even got some PCBs printed.

Total cost per unit is around £10.

Hi,

You can check if the Inkbird thermometer is ok for you. It's ok to check the tempeature of your beer.
