Don't Do What I Just Did With The Internal Thermometer!

[Dottylu]

Thought I'd have learned a lesson after accidentally burying the internal thermometer not once, twice, but three times with new composting material; but alas: NO! 😳
Just had to order a replacement thermometer so I can most likely do the exact same thing yet again! 🙄

Hi Dottylu, I have attached a very thin long piece of garden wire around the post of the internal thermometer and tuck it in the corner where the bin lid closes. It is so thin that it does not mark or damage the bin in anyway. Because of my retrieval method I have only ever buried my thermometer once - before attaching the wire! 👍

I hadn't thought about leaving the thermometer in all the time. I just put mine in when I want an accurate temperature reading. As long as the top thermometer is in the green zone I don't worry too much
