I need something to measure 2oz of hot water. Can I use this for that?

I'm not sure about the other respondent, but the red base is a 2oz or 60 ml. I've used it before and it works great! I had no problem holding it with the hot water in it. OXO makes a great product. I'm sure kids love them they are cool, but they work in the kitchen or bar for adults as well!

That would be 60mL and I am pretty sure these don't hold that much. These are basically a children's toy. My daughter loves them.

Yes, Tritan copolyester plastic should be able to handle even boiling water without deforming.

Yes, you can! These little "beakers" are great for measuring small amounts. When not in use they stack so nicely in my cabinet. Love them!

Yes it will. You can set the units of measurement by ounces, mL, pounds, fluid ounces or grams with one touch of a button.

My measures 2 oz. of water for hard boiled 1 oz. for medium & 1/2 oz. for soft.

Nope. It's not intended for that use. Just check the internal temperature about half-hour before end of recommended cook time then you'll know how to gauge it.

It will measure air pressure, positive and negative. It doesn't actually measure water in an appliance or other devices. To better understand wc measurements go to google and research how to make a homemade water column tester using tubing.

No, I don't think so. It will measure your target temp at boiling but once you set the low temp you will already be over it when you hit start. I just don't think it will do that. I could be wrong. It has only one setting.

Yes this thermometer is normally used to measure the temp of liquids by immersing it 75mm (2.9 inches) into them.

You are looking at the wrong tool this tool is used for measuring pressure in inches water column only. It does not send it only reads pressures

Certainly. It will read the surrounding temperature -- in air, in water, in bread or wherever else. The one I have is quite accurate. It reads 212 degrees F in boiling distilled water at about a sea level elevation.

Yes this should work fine since you have sufficient time window to obtain reading. I have used it to get reading of water temperature coming out of faucet and soups etc. Also used it for correct water temperature for yeast.

Not really. There's no measuring line on the carafe for smaller amounts, but you could draw a line on the frame or even eyeball it if you're good at that. Quality would be no different, as long as you use the same proportion of grounds to water. The difference in surface area would just result in the coffee cooling down faster than in a 1 or 2 cup French Press.

If it's a smaller kettle yes but if it's a larger kettle then probably not I would suggest maybe one of those laser temperature checkers that can be pointed directly at the kettle to see if the water is the right temperature

I wouldn't do it! Do you mean to use it like a pot/pan? I wouldn't want to take that chance in case it would slip and you could get scalded. But as a measuring cup for dry/liquid measurements, I love it and use it very day.

I suppose you could, provided you take the necessary precautions in somewhat water proofing the temperature probe. I Initially used mine for home brewing and found it to be about 5 degrees off from other calibrated thermometers which is not good in home brewing. You might want to look around a bit more before committing to this unit.

It can, but it is surface temps only. For liquids, stiring while checking will get a more uniform reading.

If you are asking if it measures volume, then no, it only measures weight. But it does allow you to select "fluid ounces" as a unit of measure. It is likely accurate for water, since the weight of a volume of water is standard, but other liquids would slightly vary.

I've used it to measure the temp of milk when heated up to just below boiling to make yogurt and it was fine.
