The infrared thermometer yep, the vac sealer was reviewed by others before and it was not great.

FWIW I had very poor results using an IR thermometer in the past, and that was a lab standard unit that had been calibrated.  It was 10C off or more at times.

Nisbets are selling the 3kW induction hob for €129.99 at the moment. It hasn't been that low in quite a while so if you've been procrastinating on buying one, now might be the time to go for it

That 129 doesn't include vat. It's 159 shipped.

Thermo pen style probes for €9.99 also. Some good deals this month. I love when the new chef porn mag arrives.

True true,  just warning people. I just bought one 😉

I have one of those termapen style thermometers as well. They're decent.
