Cook Chill Probe

Key Advantages & Features

Dual Communication: Bluetooth + LoRaWAN

• Bluetooth Mode:

• Instant, direct connection to the DIGE Android App

• Integrated with CAMPRO (Camera + Probe) for rapid checkpoint data capture, annotating photos, and linking readings to tasks

• Ideal for handheld or mobile use

• LoRaWAN Mode:

• Long-range wireless connectivity for continuous CookChill monitoring

• Transmits through production kitchens, cold rooms, and blast chillers

• Works with MultiTech or any DIG-compatible LoRaWAN gateway

This hybrid technology makes the probe suitable for both portable spot checks and end-to-end batch temperature tracking.

Heatproof & Waterproof Cooking Probe

• Designed to remain inserted in the product throughout cooking and chilling

• Resistant to:

• High heat during roasting, boiling, sous-vide, steaming

• Rapid temperature drops in blast chillers

• Full wash-down environments and wet processing areas

• Ensures continuous, accurate tracking of the food’s internal temperature without manual re-insertion.

Ideal for Cook–Chill Operations

The CookChill Probe is engineered specifically for operations where:

• Food is cooked to a required kill-step temperature

• Immediately chilled rapidly within regulated timeframes (often <90 min)

• Continuous temperature records are required for HACCP, ISO 22000, and national food safety compliance

The probe captures the entire temperature curve automatically, enabling full traceability of each batch.

Two Modes of Use

1. Continuous Monitoring Mode (LoRaWAN)

Used when the probe stays in the product for the entire CookChill cycle. Requires:

• A LoRaWAN Gateway (e.g., MultiTech MT-CAP or equivalent) for continuous data transmission.

Perfect for:

• Food manufacturing plants

• Central kitchens

• Blast chilling processes

• Batch verification

• HACCP CookChill checkpoints

2. Handheld Pen-Type Thermometer Mode (Bluetooth Only)

Used for spot checks, audits, and regular checkpoints. Does NOT require a gateway. Directly connects to:

• Didge Android App

• CamPro workflow (photo + measurement + corrective action)

This flexibility makes the CookChill Probe a single device suitable for multiple roles.

Cradle, Charging Base & Accessories Included

Each CookChill Probe ships with:

• Charging cradle (dock)

• Charging port / USB-C / proprietary connector (model dependent)

• AC charging adapter

• Pre-configured digital profile

• Pre-charged battery

The cradle also serves as an organised, hygienic storage base.
