KitchenCraft Milk Thermometer, Stainless Steel Kitchen Gadget, Silver

I use this KitchenCraft Milk Thermometer every single day and it’s fantastic! It lets me see exactly when my milk is up to temperature really easily. The clever thumb grip is such a great feature – it stops it sliding around in the jug while you work. Made from solid stainless steel, it feels well made and accurate. A really useful little gadget I wouldn’t be without!

Seems to work well - checked calibration at room temperature and boiling point (room temperature is spot on and the boiling point is within a few degrees centigrade of actual boiling). The thermometer I received has a dial style the same as the second and third pictures in the product description: no "China" lettering and instead "Kitchen Craft" in a bigger font a few millimeters higher up. The reason I mention this is because the first picture represents a product that is identical to the Grunwerg model. The dial style and the thermometer construction look, otherwise, exactly the same which makes me think that this thermometer is identical to the slightly more expensive Grunwerg thermometer. In terms of milk frothing I'm getting better results already and I realise that my previous approach (touching the jug to test the temperature) was way off in terms of accuracy and end results. The thermometer needs to be wiped clean. It can't be submerged in water - it is not watertight and this is clear from a brief inspection of the casing. In terms of quality, it's sufficient for occasional (multiple daily use) home use but it won't survive for long, I suspect, in a cafe. That said, my unit doesn't have any of the out of box problems that others have reported: the dial is fixed well to the spindle and the top of the spindle is flush against the plastic dial cover (face of the unit) so there is no obvious danger of the dial falling off. I would recommend the Kitchen Craft thermometer and will certainly buy another one even if this one only lasts a couple of years.

The thermometer is quite accurate as you can see in the picture (excuse my poor milk frothing skills). It’s a very good size and fits many milk jugs. I would say the top is quite big and wide so it’s difficult for me to see how my milk frothing is going. The clip was also quite loose. I have to try bend it to get it tighter, but I still haven’t got it to replace where it’s good. You have to stop milk frothing a couple moments before your desired temperature as the thermometer reads slow slowly however that’s just the nature of these thermometers. Overall good quality, recommend it.

This has genuinely improved my morning coffee routine! It's simple, affordable, and does exactly what it promises perfectly frothing milk with minimal effort. I've noticed a significant upgrade in the quality of my homemade coffees, and it makes them taste almost like café-bought ones. Highly recommend to any coffee enthusiast looking to enhance their drinks easily at home. Definitely worth the purchase!

Easy to read and use in steaming milk with the wand on my espresso machine. The red line indicator helps to ensure that I do not over heat the milk and spoil my coffee.

Nice handy item, just don't let your sone use it to check the temp on boiling oil as the dial will melt off. 🤔🤦

Purchased this to go with a fancy new coffee machine. It’s an ok thermometer. It registers the temperature well and is easy to clean. The 3 stars is because of the little metal clip. After cleaning it three or four times it’s loosened up and now just falls off the spike. Before it would stay at the top (I assume because of how it’s bent). So when I heat milk with the crazy steam arm the thermometer spins around. I’ve tried bending it back so it pinches but it never lasts. 3/5, worth it if it’s on sale.

Works a treat when steaming my milk, excellent product, great quality and value, delighted with purchase.

This thermometer functions exactly as expected. To verify its calibration, I tested it in a glass of melting ice water (which is a consistent 32°F), and it read perfectly. The device is very well-made and takes the guesswork out of the process. If you are trying to learn the exact right temperature for frothing milk for your lattes, this is a fantastic tool to help you get it right. Pro tip, avoid getting to the red line!

Hace su función, va muy bien.

What can you say about a thermometer? It works, lol!

Works, clear indicator for milk froth, useful for people with sensitive hands as I can only hold the body of the milk jug to 50 degrees c before it is too hot for me to hold.

Does not fit in between my Hario stainless steel kettle :(
