Answers:
You can use a meat thermometer as long as it's clean and it goes up to that temperature (which it should)!. dip it in and just don't let it touch the bottom or sides!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
Instant read or probe thermometer would be a better replacement!.
Or, just use the soft ball/hard ball method
