**** PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY PRIOR TO USE FOR IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION **** 

IMPORTANT!! 

Caution: 

Sections labeled “Caution” can lead to equipment damage or unsatisfactory performance of the 
equipment. Please read these sections thoroughly. If you have any questions, contact your retailer or 
Blichmann Engineering™ (www.BlichmannEngineering.com) before use.

 

Assembly & Installation: 

Caution:

 Prior to installing the BrewMometer™, select a position on the kettle that is high enough to be out of the direct 

heat from the burner, but low enough to measure approximately in the middle of the liquid for a better temperature 
accuracy.  

Caution:

 As with any bimetal thermometer, do not install the BrewMometer™ in a location on the kettle where it will be 

subjected to excessive heat. Always keep the flame low enough that excessive heat does not roll over the corners of the 
kettle. Excessive heat will damage the hermetically sealed case causing the inside of the BrewMometer™ to fog. This failure 
is not covered under warranty. If you cannot comfortably hold your hand on the case of the thermometer during operation 
it is too hot (about 140°F max). A minimum distance of 6” from the bottom of the kettle is recommended but does not 
guarantee it will be below 140°F. If the surface is still too hot, installing a heat shield (not provided) under the thermometer 
is recommended. Lastly, avoid direct spray of water on the thermometer and do not immerse it in water for cooling or 
cleaning.
