I have an STC-1000 that reads 0 degrees in an ice slurry, however when the temp range is between 60 & 80 degrees it reads about 4 degrees colder than the half dozen other digital temp gauges I've compared it with.
It's possible that the STC is correctly calibrated and the other cheap temp gauges are all wrong but I'd prefer to calibrate the STC for its intended use i.e mashing.
My question is, do I buy a quality thermometer from a kitchen shop and calibrate the STC against that at 65deg or thereabouts? or is the a better way?
Cheers,
