Bilovit Wax Thermometer

Dual measurement scale – readings in both degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit, so you can follow both Polish and international recipes without having to convert.
Metal clip – clip the thermometer to the rim of the pan and keep your hands free whilst stirring.
Wide measurement range – from approx. 40 to 200 °C, suitable for melting wax as well as the high temperatures of caramel and hot oil.
A red ball on the clip – allows you to safely remove the thermometer from hot liquid without coming into contact with the hot glass.
Accurate measurement – the probe, immersed in the liquid and held away from the bottom of the pan, shows the actual temperature of the contents, rather than that of the hot pan.
Classic design – glass with metal and plastic components, no batteries or electronics required, ready for use at any time.
Hanging loop in the cap – a hole at the top allows you to hang the thermometer within easy reach, rather than leaving it loose in a drawer.

The Bilovit wax thermometerisa classicglass thermometerwitha dual scale—in degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit — and a rangefrom approx. 40 to 200 °C.A metal clipsecuresit to the rim of the container, ensuring that the probe remains submerged in the wax without touching the bottom, and that the reading shows the actual temperature of the contents.

Candles turn out well when you know the temperature

A sunken centre, a white film on the surface, a scent that has vanished once the wax has set — the most common failures in home candle-making stem fromwax that has been overheated or poured at the wrong moment. The difference can be as much as a dozen or so degrees, and it’s simply not visible to the naked eye. The Bilovit thermometer shows it straight away: you know when the wax is fully melted, when to add the fragrance oil and when to pour the wax into the mould. It’s useful forsoya, beeswax and coconut wax, as well asparaffin and stearin, and forhomemade balms and ointments. A simple, tried-and-tested design made of glass, metal and plastic — no electronics or batteries required.

How to use:

1. Before first use, wash the thermometer in hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly to remove any residue from the manufacturing process.
2. Clip the thermometer to the rim of the container.
3. Immerse the probe in the wax to a depth of approximately 6.35 cm (2 1/2 inches), ensuring it does not touch the bottom of the container — this ensures an accurate reading.
4. Monitor the reading whilst heating and remove the container from the heat source once the correct temperature has been reached.
5. Before pouring the wax into the mould, wait until it has cooled to the pouring temperature recommended by the wax manufacturer.
6. When you have finished, grasp the ball on the clip to safely remove the thermometer from the container.

Care and cleaning: Hand wash only. Do not put in the dishwasher. Before first use, wash the thermometer in hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.

Storage: Store in a dry place, protected from knocks and breakage — preferably on its own, not loose amongst other accessories.

Precautions:

Do not place the thermometer in an oven or microwave.
When removing it from hot wax, hold it only by the ball on the retaining clip.
The glass construction is delicate — protect the thermometer from being dropped or knocked.
Do not immerse a hot thermometer in cold water — a sudden change in temperature may damage the glass.
Keep out of reach of children.
