## Questions & Answers

**Q: This may a dumb question, but can this thermometer also be used to measure the temperature of your soil?**
A: This should be able to measure soil temperature as long as the probe can be placed deep enough to cover the sensor on the tip

**Q: Is this made from stainless steel?**
A: Yes

**Q: A reviewer said it takes at least 24 hours to register. Is this true?**
A: If they mean "to register" for the temperature to read correctly, absolutely not.  I stick it in my compost and have a reading in about 1 to 2 minutes at the most.   I'm sure if I left it longer it might settle to an "exact" temp but I'm not doing a scientific experiment, I'm just wanting to know where my compost pile is at.  As long as I'm within a degree or 2 I'm satisfied.

**Q: Can this thermometer be calibrated if needed?**
A: There is not any info about calibrating this thermometer in the very informative text on the package or in the video on this product on their website. It's a "backyard" compost thermometer, not an extremely accurate scientific instrument. It worked great for me, revealing what stage the compost breakdown was at and when it was done, at 4 weeks.
