Polder calibration

[Frank S.]

I tested my Polder today by inserting it into a glass of crushed ice & water... it registered 28 degrees. Estimating it is about 5 degrees off, I would like to calibrate it, hence my question: Does anyone know how to calibrate the Polder single probe unit? It is the standard model that Amazon sells for $20. I read the directions, and just don't see any mention of calibration. Any help is apreciated.

Hi Frank!

No calibration on the Polders. They come as they are.

I woud test in boiling water...all 5 of mine are perfect in ice water but 4? off at boiling.

It's no big deal, that is within the "acceptable" range.....+/- 5%.

Just check them in boiling water and see what the difference is, then work with that.
