Rhino Digital Thermometer – Programmable, With Pitcher Clip
A quiet click at the rim of the pitcher, a glance at the number instead of the clock in your head – and you know whether the milk needs more steam.
The Rhino digital thermometer takes that guesswork away: you set your target temperature, clip the stainless-steel clip with quick-release action onto the pitcher, adjust the probe height, and a beep sounds the moment the temperature is reached. Temperature decides which aroma compounds dissolve – higher heat brings more body, lower heat more complexity and aroma, and that's exactly the window where silky microfoam happens.
Every jug of milk is a little different – the beans, the humidity, the day all change daily, and that's not a limitation, it's the beauty of it. A digital thermometer doesn't take the experience away from you, it just gives you one reliable reference point while you learn. Our opinion is one of many: some swear by sound and feel in the hand, others by the number on the display – both paths lead to good milk foam.

Who It's For
For anyone who wants to bring milk to the right point reproducibly – whether you're just starting out with latte art or have been at it for years, the thermometer makes no difference either way, it just gives you one more reference point while you learn.
What Pairs Well With It
A pitcher to go with the thermometer, and the espresso that forms the base – a look at our espresso machines and our coffee beans shows what completes it well.
The same rule applies to the pitchers themselves as everywhere with us: Normcore is affordable and reliable, and if you want more presence on the counter, you'll find Rhino and Weber Workshops in our milk pitcher selection. No budget is ever just a starting point here.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I set the target temperature?
You program your desired temperature directly on the display, then a beep sounds once it's reached.
Is a milk pitcher included?
No, the pitcher isn't included. The clip fits common pitchers and its height can be adjusted.
What's the difference between this and the Rhino Accutemp?
The Accutemp is a sticker with a liquid-crystal display right on the pitcher; this thermometer measures digitally through a clip with a probe and signals the target temperature with a beep – two different principles for the same purpose.
Does the thermometer work for anything besides milk?
Yes, the probe can also be used outside the clip, for example for water or other kitchen preparations.
Can I see the product before buying?
Yes, you can experience it live in our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zurich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b).
How is it delivered?

Roastery Tip
Milk temperature plays its part in how sweet and round an espresso ends up tasting – which is why, in the roastery, we reach for a coffee that still shows its character next to textured milk: Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight are our standard for that, full-bodied and aromatic with caramel and chocolate notes. If you're after maximum body with no acidity at all, you'll find that in Very Nutty. And for anyone curious about a fruity experience: Wild Peach is a discovery at the edges, never our main promise. That's our recommendation from the roastery – one of many, other beans taste good in their own way.
