Candle Thermometer for Candle Making with Clip and 300mm Stainless Steel Probe

Initially skeptical because the stick was so long and my candle pitcher was rather small. However, it works well and I’m going to keep using it to make candles. Can’t say for sure if it’s accurate.

I do not normally write reviews but I have seen so many people complain about inaccuracy. I am fairly new to candle making and in all the videos I watched about melting point and pouring fragrance oil at the right temp to get maximum hot throw, not one video explained that you need to calibrate your thermometer. When I used this, it would not go past 160F. Soooooo, I did what any genius would do and found some YouTube videos and learned about calibration. LOL! Here is what you need to do with this thermometer in particular. If you look under the bottom, there is a little nut and that is what you need to set to calibrate your thermometer. Ice water should be at 32F (0 Celsius) and boiling water 212F. I tested mine in ice water first and it was reading 60F which I knew was wrong. I used a wrench and turned the dial back to 32F. Then to make sure that worked, I boiled some water and inserted and the dial moved to 212F!!!!! What a freaking relief. Try it and thank me later.

The thermometer comes with a clip that does not hold up well. It migrates and you have to constantly reposition.

My wife has her own candle business and she loves this Product. She’s been using it for over a year now and it’s good to say that it’s still going

Not accurate and broke after 2 weeks. Uhhhh

This thermometer has served me well - so convenient and easy, safe to use. It has been a great help in my baking although it is actually labeled for candle-making.This is my first transaction with S. Brannan and Sons, and I am well satisfied with their fast service. I just wish all sellers could be as professional as they are.

This candle making thermometer works well. The clip on the thermometer is firmly attached, which allows for use on various size pots.

I ordered this based off a Youtube candle maker review. I used it to make a candle and noticed it was way off in temp. It was reading my IG 6046 wax was only 151 F when actually it was close to 200 F. I am going to try it one time before I return it to see if it works better in a bigger batch.
