Thermometers

[Intellidepth]

Hi, when I had my bad cafe visit yesterday, I noticed they were using the same type of thermometer I have purchased from Coffee Parts <<<<, but they had the thermometer in the jug housed in what I had assumed was a pocket protector tube with a clip on it, not using the provided jug clip.

What is that black tube for? I was a bit horrified as I really wasnt sure about that thermometer casing getting its cleanout as frequently as the jugs...

Er, for the purposes of breeding a new milk-based super-bug, thereby restoring the proper balance of mainstream Australianess by decimating the latte-sipping classes?

Its like those little black rubber things on steam wands -- I thought I was being really careful keeping my steam wand nice and clean, and then I had a closer look at this thing -- more specifically, underneath this thing. Oooh. Not good.

So now its pushed up the wand as far away from the milk as possible.

But what the dickens is it for???

I have always used it to hold on to when I move the hot steam wand around (I imagine this is what is for). On my silvia it is sitting half way onto the first bend of the steam wand.
