Defective/Does not work properly
Return Details: This thermonmeter was to measure the temperature of steamed milk. The metal pitcher was too hot to touch and the actual temperature was 170 deg F. This thermometer was showing 120 deg F.

I was using a $90 Thermoworks to verify the accuracy.
The Thermoworks is meant for probing food and measuring cooking oil temp.
It does NOT click on to anything which is why I wanted the Taylor thermometer.
Bottom LIne is that I returned and I will use my touch senses of the metal pitcher and then double check with the thermoworks device.

Again the milk was 170 deg which is WAY OVER the 140 to 160 deg F range and this device was not even showing 120 yet. If the stainless steel pitcher was not so hot, the milk would have been ruined. Thermoworks is right on at boiling water and at an ice bath of water.
