[[User:Steven J. Koch|Steve Koch]] 01:08, 11 August 2009 (EDT): Great work with the incubator! That is really interesting about the temperature being so far off from the display & good idea to put the whole meter in there. Actually, I have another idea: you could put a big plastic jug full of water in there, and let it incubate for a couple hours. Then you could pull it out and measure its temperature: that would be the ultimate answer. If indeed we need to put it at 60 to achieve 37, that's really important to know...thanks! | |||
