TFA Dostmann 30.1040 Digital Food Thermometer -40 to +250 °C with Stainless Steel Probe

Digital food thermometer with a wide measurement range from -40 to +250 °C and a fast-response stainless steel probe. The TFA Dostmann 30.1040 delivers precise temperature readings for cooking, baking, BBQ, and laboratory use, with a clear LCD display and convenient hold function.

Advantages

The slim 140 mm stainless steel probe penetrates food quickly and responds in under 10 seconds, so you can monitor core temperatures without losing heat from the oven or grill. The IP65 waterproof rating allows safe cleaning under running water, while the ABS plastic housing withstands daily kitchen use. A pocket clip and hanging loop keep the thermometer within reach, and the auto shut-off after 10 minutes preserves the included CR2032 battery.
