Lyman thermometer accuracy
Just took delivery of a new Lyman thermometer.

How accurate are they? My old Lee 10 lb production pot, when the thermostat is on 5 causes the thermometer to hit 720.

Put it in a pot of boiling water to test it. While it should read 212 @ sea level, you'll have to adjust it for altitude. There are calculators online to tell you what your temp should read.
