Kitchen Timers FAQs

What are the benefits of kitchen timers?

With many smartphones these days offering timing applications, you may be wondering about the benefits of kitchen timers when you have access to a timekeeping device within arms reach. The benefits when it comes to mobile phones are pretty simple. Kitchen timers allow you to set a timer while keeping your phone clean from ingredients and preventing other kitchen mess from damaging your phone. On the other hand, your mobile phone can be quite dirty, with the chance of you transferring germs from your phone screen to your culinary creations. Kitchen timers allow you to time your baking without the need for touching your phone. Furthermore, their main benefit is their timekeeping properties. They allow you to maximise your time in the kitchen without the constant need to check on your baking or cooking when your dish is in the oven and allow you to tend to other necessary food preparation tasks or clean up any mess that may have built up throughout your cooking experience.

Digital Timer vs Egg Timer

A digital timer originates from the term kitchen or egg timer which refers to a timekeeping device designed to be used in the cooking of eggs. They originated with an hourglass design and from there have grown to be developed in various shapes, designs and forms. An egg timer such as manual timers are typically bulkier in size when compared to digital timers due to the mechanisms involved in their design. A digital timer however, may be easier to control when timing. They usually feature a button that allows you to pause the time whereas most mechanical timers do not feature a pausing mechanism and instead would need to be turned off in order to stop the timing. However, some digital timers may include further functions which may take some time to master depending on the complexity.
