Measuring cup with externally-mounted liquid crystal thermometer

摘要

A measuring cup with a thermometer mounted on an exterior surface thereof for measuring the temperature of a liquid prior to placing it in the cup. The cup can be used in many operations involving a liquid which have a critical temperature requirement. One such operation is breadmaking in which water, once it has been warmed to a desired temperature, is added to yeast or, alternately, to a flour mixture containing yeast. To use the cup in breadmaking, the cup is placed under a stream of warm water and, when the thermometer indicates the water has reached the desired temperature, the water in a measured amount is added to the cup.
