Infrared thermometer

It can measure the temperature of oil as well as hot water without touching it.

 

Defrosting plate

Defrosting frozen food naturally takes time. However, by placing food on a plate made of an aluminum alloy with high thermal conductivity, the plate absorbs the cold and defrosting time is shortened. The plate differs from ordinary plates in that it has an uneven bottom to increase the surface in contact with air and improve thermal conductivity.

Of course, its high thermal conductivity can be applied not only for defrosting, but also for freezing and removing rough heat.
