The labelled and weighted glass floats successively sink as the temperature increases and the density of the tube fluid decreases.
Galileo did not invent it. That honour goes to the Accademia del Cimento, a research organization in Florence from 1657 to 1667 under the leadership of Ferdinand II, Grand Duke of Tuscany. Galileo died in 1642,

Macro Mondays - Back Lit
Happy Macro Monday everyone.
I held my Galileo thermometer up to the sun and went click. The gold tags are just under 1cm and the width of the thermometer is 2 inches.
For Macro Mondays theme "kitchen", this is the thermometer I usually use to see if something is done (beef, chicken, and pork in the oven, mostly). This is not the greatest thermometer, although it is accurately showing the air temperature on the patio table I'm using as a studio. But it works, and is relatively inexpensive - I keep managing to lose them (somewhere, they are keeping some odd socks company). The image is about 1.75 inches wide - it is not a large item.

ANSH 121 #11 "Modern Times"
This is a new adaptation of the old fashioned thermometer, This unit can act as a remote one, connecting to your phone via either bluetooth or wifi. The phone can be used to set alarm temperatures as well as just to monitor temps. This one was a Christmas gift, and is sitting on the table of my smoker, ready to be attached to some meat via the probes. Modern times meets ancient art of cooking with fire.
My Thermapen is an essential tool in my kitchen. Although I don't normally use it for coffee. 😊
For Flickr Friday theme "Instant"
An old indoor thermometer. Lots of spots under the glass cover. That dictated where I focused my shot. ..where the spots would show least. .. and I still had to clean out some spots when I post processed the image.

Thought I'd take one last photo of my Galileo Thermometer. It's been packed away and I won't see it again until next year.
My great aunt used to have two of these. I really liked them when I was a kid. I still do! Their design is similar to the Honeywell oil furnace thermostats still used in many homes today. My uncle kept them and gave me the white one tonight. I didn't know somebody in the family had kept these when my great aunt passed away. Strangely, I thought about this thermometer that I haven't seen in since years earlier this week!
