KitchenCraft Milk Thermometer, Stainless Steel Clip-On Thermometer for Frothing, Steaming, Coffee, Tea, Barista Use, 0-100°C, Silver Finish

I use this in conjunction with a small milk jug for frothing milk for lattes etcAppears to be very accurate, even when I'm using only a small amount of milk and only covering the bottom ~1-2cm of the probe.Very easy to wipe clean after use and small enough to store atop the coffee machine itself.I would consider this easier to use than a jug with 'built in' thermometer as you can easily see the temperature displayed whilst also trying to hold your angle during frothing.

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!

Really good and helpful with the dials and indicator on the face of it! Is very big so the jug you do have to purchase a large one for it to work efficiently.

This is a thermometer of the standard you see them using in the big name coffee shops. Works brilliant and does not need batteries like lots of the ones on offer.

Good thermometer for steaming milk for coffee. Attached conveniently to the jug edge.

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.

After two years still using it

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.
