Will it tell you if the meat is rare etc or do you have to figure that out from a temerature read out?

It will tell you if it is rare, medium, or well done. No guessing necessary.

definitely......it will tell you rare, medium, or well done plus the temperature in degrees and it does pork, beef, fish, lamb and even baked potato. Since I got mine I have purchased 2 more as gifts just because I was so impressed with it. I have seen others but they don't even come close to the ease and accuracy of this one.....you will NOT be disappointed

It depends on if you like yours rare, medium rare or well done. It does a rare to medium rare great. But if you like it well done to very well done, no pink showing at all, not so much. It just refuses to cook any further than medium rare.

Only if you slice open the meat so that the infrared thermometer has a clear shot at the target. It will not, however, measure any temperature below the surface of the meat. For meat, I use a thermocouple with a rigid, pointed type K temperature probe.

Yes, it does. So you want to insert it into the middle of the meat to check the internal temp.

I guess no one knows whole lot, I only know it comes from herb and no cal. So it is good enough for me. Like a lot of things we really don't know what in them like chicken do u really know what in it? So u won't eat it until u find out ? u will die of hunger. How much u need ? U have to look for recipes there are a lot .

I recommend purchasing a separate quick read thermometer for checking multiple pieces of meat.

Yes, but unlike beef roasts for example, whole turkeys have both white and dark meats so I also use an "instant read" thermometer to be sure the dark meat is done because dark meat always takes longer to cook than white meat does. Before I became a good knowledgeable cook I used to roast the turkey thighs and legs separate from the breast so that the breast wouldn't dry out before the dark meat was done. Now, at age 67, I can almost tell if a turkey is done by looking at it's beautiful golden brown color and it's aroma wafting throughout my home but just to be safe I check it's dark meat temperature in the thigh (nothing worse than tough barely done dark meat) with my instant read thermometer. Happy Cooking!

I am not sure what you are asking. I do not know of any scale that can electronically detect the fats and carbs in a food. I am a chemist and if someone had invented that it would be headline news. This scale has the nutrition information of thousands foods in its memory. You weigh something and then input a code number and it will display nutritional information for that food based on the weight. In other words you weigh a pork chop and input the code for pork chop and it will display the calories, fat, carbs and other nutrition information. The scale comes with a booklet with thousands of foods and their codes. I have not used the codes much but I seem to remember that they arranged alphabetically by foot type, i.e. "meats", "Poultry", "vegetables" etc.

It is translucent so the amount of food is visible but you can't tell what the food is.

No, you insert it into the meat only to check it's current temp(doneness), then take it out, turn it off and repeat when necessary ps., it is not a truly 'instant' read thermometer, does take about 10sec., which is pretty darn fast. Hope this was helpfull. BT

It will readout grains, grams, carats and ounces. very accurate, I have tested it with certified weights and found it to be right on the money from .001 grains up to 750 grains. For the money you can't go wrong.

If you don't put it in the meat, it can't tell the temperature of the meat.

It does have a smell, kinda sour and considering that it contains humic acids, common in composted or fermented products, I can understand, but no it doesn't smell like rotten meat, that is a distinct smell and if yours does then you may have a problem ;D

The Thermometer comes with a very handy and easy to read plastic card with all the meat and poultry temperatures on it.This handy little card is attached to the plastic sheath with a silver chain. The print is easy to read unlike thermometers that have the temperature printed on the sheath. If you did not receive a temperature chart please contact us and it will be mailed out to you at no charge.

If you go to the pictures it will show you the ingredients. You can read there for the information you are looking for.

It's pretty fast. If you are using the steak setting, it might take a few minutes to give a final reading (for more well done meat), but not too much time.

It can only read surface temperatures. For meat you would need a probe type thermometer.
