Can I use to monitor internal temp of baking bread? Loaves & rolls.

Certainly. It will read the surrounding temperature -- in air, in water, in bread or wherever else. Just embed the temperature sensor (it's not really a "probe") deep inside the bread. The one I have is quite accurate. It reads 212 degrees F in boiling distilled water at about a sea level elevation.

We use an instant thermometer with no problem. It is not an oven as it has no insulation. I would not think an oven thermometer would be desirable because what you really need to know is the temperature of the food you are cooking rather than the temperature of the surrounding space. In an oven food starts to cook at about 180F and the length of time it takes to cook is very dependent on the amount of liquid the food contains.

This therometer should not be left in the oven! It's designed as instant read, not continuous. It will melt.

No, it can only be used for surface temperature. There is no probe to check internal temp.

I am not the designer or engineer of this temperature gun but I do believe this is for measuring surface temp. and would not be accurate for measuring internal temps.

to check grill's temp yes, for food no. It measures the temp surface only not the inside part

This thermometer is to measure oven temperature and to help calibrate the oven. Especially handy for bakers where accurate temperature is critical.

As others have said, you can probably use the metal-corded probe to measure oven temp if it's not touching metal. It doesn't do it concurrently as my old Polder did, however.

YES, You can measure the temp of anything you put in your oven or bbq. it will give you two vebal and audible warnings, one when it is almost done (when it reaches 5 degrees to desired internal temp), and second (when it has reached desired internal temp).

Set the temperature for whatever you're cooking. Parchment paper is meant for the oven.

yes , you can use it to check the temperature.but the one I bought just so happens it doesn't work at all.so the answer is No because this product is terrible.

I haven't tried an oven thermometer yet (good idea) but so far everything that I've tried in it has cooked/baked according to the suggested time and temperature in recipes. Of course, I most often use it for toasting English muffins for breakfast or grilled cheese in the evening, so exact temps have never been an issue.

Yes, there is a thermometer enclosed and it works very well. It tells you the temperature of the oven and you can regulate it by moving the oven to direct sun rays.

As others have said, it probably will not do what you are probably looking for since it will only provide a surface temperature. However, if you want to know the temperature of a frying pan, or the interior of an oven, or the inside of your freezer, theses are all things the unit can do.

I use it for making yogurt. It's very accurate when testing the temperature of warm milk. It should be just fine for bread.

The manufacturer recommends 110-115F if you are proofing it first, and if you are adding it to the flour, use 130F liquids. For bread machines, use 80F water. 119 is slightly warmer than body temperature, but thermometers are $5-10 - cheap, and you only pay that once, compared to the cost of ingredients....

Frankly, I wouldn't. I've used this one for many years in the oven and recommend it for that purpose, but it's not 100% accurate and not as sensitive as an alcohol-based glass thermometer for example. For something like cheese-making where a few degrees make a difference, I'd stick with a thermometer with a narrower, but more precise, range.
