Rare, medium or well done? To achieve the desired grilling results, you have to keep a close eye on the core temperature of the food that’s on the grill. We’ve compiled a few tips on how to easily check this.
The optimum core temperature always depends on the food you’re grilling. When it comes to poultry – chicken and male turkeys, for example – the optimum core temperature is reached at 80–85 °C, while female turkeys are cooked or well done at 80–90 °C.
With beef, you can enjoy a fillet of beef rare from 38–55 °C, while a 55–58 °C core temperature will cook it to medium. Fish, on the other hand, can be ready to eat from 50 °C.

With the smart thermometer, the perfect cooking temperature is prepared via our app. You can use temperatures for six different types of meat and for five cooking levels as a reference to work around and personalise if you like. Furthermore, you can display up to four temperature sensors at the same time and control the thermometer remotely with the thermometer display or via app from up to 50 metres away.
