LAKE GENEVA, WI—Chaney Instrument Co. has introduced six thermometers to its Acu-Rite line. The new pieces include two patented Acu-Rite Sure Grip® barbeque tools, a waterproof instant-read digital thermometer, and easy-to-calibrate instant-read thermometer and two serving spoons.
The new products will be showcased at the Gourmet Products show taking place April 19-22 at San Francisco’s Moscone Center.
The Sure Grip Burger Probe—which features a bent tip with a 3/8-inch insertion guide and long stems with non-slip handles—and Sure Grip Fork provide exact temperature readings on large LCD panels to help the grill chef to achieve safe and successful results. Other features include on/off and Celsius/Fahrenheit switches. USDA recommended cooking temperatures are printed on the handles.
Measuring six and one-half inches long, the waterproof digital thermometer offers a soft-touch Sure Grip handle and straight probe with protective sheath. The thermometer provides temperature readings from –40 to 392 Fahrenheit. In addition, it offers a hold button to maintain the temperature display until the thermometer is turned off.
Also new to the Acu-Rite line are the easy-to-calibrate instant-read thermometers. The 1-3/4-inch diameter and one-inch diameter instant-read meat thermometers can be tested and calibrated with a specially designed calibration nut that allows for manual adjustment. They are also NSF-certified.
The Sure Grip spoon and ladle offer digital readouts, are constructed of stainless steel and have easy-to-read displays. The NSF-certified pieces also feature soft handles.
