I recently installed a new open contact thermocouple from Omega for faster readings in my HT oven and have been giving it a thought on how to figure out its accuracy. If I measured the currie point ,1414*F, on the upswing would that be the best way to determine the accuracy of the thermocouple?
I will be sending some coupons to a buddy to check with his hardness tester but in my thinking that is not going to tell me how to figure the difference in real temp and what the PID reads since soak times and methods can affect those numbers.
What do yall think? Is there a low tech way to get accurate temps figured out ?
