The Typhur Sync: The Smart Thermometer That Can Actually Keep Up With Me
If you’ve ever tried to cook the perfect steak while juggling a camera, making dad jokes, and wrangling your kid mid-taste test, you know you need your kitchen gadgets to work with you—not against you. Enter the Typhur Sync, a wireless smart thermometer that claims it can do just that. So I put it to the test, and spoiler alert: this thing can take the heat. Literally.

I cracked open the Typhur and the first thing I noticed? The probes slide in and out of the base. Smooth. They're labeled 1 and 2, which is handy because now I can tell the difference between "ribeye in slot 1" and "my wife's steak that's way too done in slot 2"—right in the app.
Now, let’s talk tech. This thermometer uses sub-one gigahertz technology, which, in plain Dad terms, is supposed to be a more stable, less crowded signal. They claim it has 10 times the range of regular Bluetooth thermometers. I'm not a scientist, but more range means I can be outside playing with my kid and still know what’s happening in my grill. That’s a win.
Probes With Brains
The probe itself feels solid—like it could survive a fall off the counter or an accidental trip through a LEGO minefield. But the real magic? There are five sensors in just the main body of this thing. Five! It’s like the NASA of meat probes. These sensors help the thermometer predict how your meat is cooking across multiple points, and that gives you more accurate data, not just some random middle number. And there’s a sixth sensor—an ambient temperature probe in the end of the probe. This one keeps track of what your cooking environment is like.
That ambient temp sensor is a game changer. You know those janky built-in grill thermometers that are like a mile above your food and somehow say 400°F when your meat is still shivering? Yeah, not anymore. With the Typhur, the temp reading is coming from right next to the food. It’s like giving your steak its own weather report.
Smart Cooking vs Dumb Cooking
You can use the Typhur in two ways: smart cooking mode or what I like to call “dumb” manual mode. Smart mode gives you helpful tips, warnings, and will tell you when to pull your meat to account for carryover cooking. You know, that moment when you hit your target temp, yank the steak off the heat, and think you're done—but your meat keeps cooking. It’s like a runaway train of deliciousness unless you stop it in time.
Let’s say you want your steak to hit 120°F. If you actually cook it to 120°F, it’s going to keep going to 125°, maybe 130°F, depending on how thick it is. The smart mode on the Typhur predicts that and tells you when to pull your meat early so it finishes at your perfect doneness. But if you don’t care about all that, flip it into manual mode and it'll just beep at you when it hits temp. Boom. Done.
One underrated feature? An integrated rest timer. A lot of people overlook the rest, but it’s key—especially for big cuts. This little guy gives you a countdown so you’re not slicing into your steak too early and watching all your juicy dreams leak onto the cutting board.
Speed, Accuracy, and a Touch of Badass
According to Typhur, this thermometer is accurate to within half a degree and reads in under half a second. That’s fast. Like “dad just realized he left the grill on and sprinted outside” fast.
And here’s where the Typhur pulls ahead of the pack—heat resistance. Most other probes tap out around 500 or 600°F. Not the Typhur. This beast can handle up to 932°F (that’s 500°C for my metric-minded friends). That means you can sear right over open flame and not worry about melting your thermometer into a useless metal noodle.
Also, cleanup? Easy. These probes are IPX8 waterproof and dishwasher safe. I repeat: DISHWASHER. SAFE. Do you know how rare that is in the smart thermometer world? I do. And I hate handwashing anything. Toss it in the dishwasher, call it a day.
USB Charging for the Win
Now let’s talk batteries. You know what I don’t love? AAAs. Or AAs. Or anything that requires me to dig through a junk drawer only to find expired batteries that leaked all over a broken flashlight. The Typhur charges via USB. Two minutes of charging gets you two hours of use. A full charge? 24 hours. That’s enough to monitor a brisket, a turkey, and still have juice left to shame your old thermometer into retirement.
It even syncs up with the Typhur Dome air fryer. I didn’t go into that in this video, but they do talk to each other. If your kitchen gadgets are going to take over the world, at least let them help me cook dinner first.
Let’s Cook a Steak
Of course, I couldn’t just talk about this thing. I had to cook with it. So I grabbed a thick ribeye steak—about an inch to an inch and a quarter. I seasoned it up with a little avocado oil, salt, cracked black pepper, and a dash of MSG. Don’t judge. MSG is flavor magic.
I powered on the Typhur, unplugged it to activate, and pulled out probe number one. It read 78°F in the room, and when I inserted it into the thickest part of the steak, it gave me a reading of 41°F inside the meat. That’s exactly the kind of real-time data you want when you're about to air fry perfection.
I set the smart cook to 134°F, my personal medium rare sweet spot. I tossed it in the Typhur Dome (video on how to link them is coming later—stay tuned), set it for steak at 10 minutes, and let it do its thing.
What came out? Gorgeous. A good sear, juicy steak, and after a short rest—Typhur recommended two to three minutes, I gave it five—it was time to slice. The results? Still pink, super juicy, and a solid medium rare.
Final Thoughts
The Typhur Sync isn’t just another smart thermometer. It’s fast, accurate, heat-resistant, dishwasher safe, and doesn’t make you chase batteries around your house. It adapts to how you like to cook—whether you want it to think for you or just give you the numbers.
If you're tired of overcooked meat, inaccurate temps, or thermometers that can’t hang with high-heat searing, this one might be your new best friend. I’m a dad. I’m busy. I need gear that works. The Typhur does exactly that.
And yes—I plan to keep running it through the dishwasher. Because I’ve got better things to do. Like eat that steak.
