The Agtec Compost Thermometer is a heavy duty analog thermometer with a super fast response time.  Crafted from  from 304 stainless steel, the stem and dial case are extremely durable and corrosion resistant, and designed to withstand a harsh farming environment.

The thermometer measures the temperature at the very tip of the stem to ensure accurate measurements deep within compost piles. The crystal-clear polycarbonate dial face is stronger than glass and features an easy-to-read dial with a temperature range of 0-200°F.  The fast response sensor can measure from 80°F to 160°F in 20 seconds within a 1% degree of accuracy and makes high volume compost testing efficient and easy. Includes calibration screw to fine tune results and ensure accuracy.

The temperature of your compost pile is an excellent indication of microbial activity. Typically, the hotter the pile gets, the more active and numerous the microbes. Often compost piles can become too hot inside which can be detrimental to the health of the microbes and the quality of the compost. The Agtec Compost Thermometer can be used to monitor compost and indicate when it is time to turn the pile or add water. Many farmers will track the progress of their piles by recording the temperatures measured over time.
