Made another 50lbs of candy yesterday using a cheap no contact laser therm.  About 25.00 at harbor freight.   It worked perfect even through the steam coming off the pot.

That's the one I use for locating colonies in houses for a cutout. The HF store will have a sell every so often for less then $30.00.

thats it but I must have bought it on sale because it seems like it was 27.00    I originally bought it thinking I could drive into a yard in winter and shoot the laser in the upper entrance and tell it they were dead or alive.  Never did try that idea out

I have had the hardest time with candy boards/fondant.  Things never turn out right.  I went to dry sugar this winter and things have been soooo messy with dead outs.  Would be nice to get a reliable thermometer like that.  Can those be found at any big box stores or is online the only place?
