Okies in the BYC The Original

I used the dial type and calibrated them before putting them in.

There is a square or hex just under the dial part on top of the stem. Take a glass of crushed ice and a little water and put the thermometer in that. when the needle stops dropping you can grasp the hex gently with pliers and hold steady and then rotate the dial to 32 deg.

Thanks for the info Stray! I have seen Drumline - but didn't know how much of that was "Hollywood" or collegiate level stuff...like I mentioned, I know less than nothing about bands...except that there's a lot of spit involved in playing trombone...

And every other wind/brass instrument out there.

<--- Played French Horn (concert)/E-Flat Horn (marching) in High School

Are you Kidding. Pete's Place, Isle of Capri and Giacomo's.
The restaraunt trifecta.

I'd have to buy a whole new wardrobe after that affair!

Choc Beer is good stuff.

Brewed right there inside Pete's Place!

And the meals with the "extras" is still the same. A person would not go hungry eating at those resturants.

Morning everyone!

Cuban you were up late! Looks like I will be home today with my duaghter. She didn't get sick through the night but she was restless and talking so I am going to keep her home.

Hope everyone has a great day!

That is so smart! I have never used the dial kind, only the kind with the colored water in the stem, stapled to a temperature measurement. I have stood there at the feed store and tried to figure out which thermometers were the least apart in temperature, have ordered multiple thermometers from the poultry supply places and then tried the digital one. I always thought that the placement of the tube along the linear measurement could be adjusted, if I could figure out a constant to use. Ice water will work. Thank you!!!!

Teach - did you get a good night's sleep last night and eat a healthy breakfast so that you would be able to do well in the testing? I know that for you, it is mainly about encouraging your students, but your attitude will affect their attitude. Let's get a happy face

That's better, you are smiling now.

I have 2 meters for my sportsman, i have one on top shelf and then the bigger one on the bottom shelf. My temps range about from 99.5 on bottom and 101 at the very top where the water is. I only did 2 trays this time due to the middle rack didnt hatch very well last time, not sure if it was a fertility issue or to crowded and not enough air flow. Thanks for the advise Les on turning the racks. I will be doing that for sure now. Like P&B when I turn off the turner I am the worlds worse about remembering to turn it back on.

Good morning, Pepper
Don't worry about catching up all at once - just read backwards while you are waiting for new posts today. There are a few conversations you will want to jump in on - like a possible dinner at Krebs - actually, if you read Cuban's comments late last night, you will probably get the most important conversations.

Glad to see that you haven't floated away.
