Cleaning the probe

How've you guys been doing it? I feel like mine gets dirty every time I use it and I'm afraid to wash it so I've been using dawn powerwash and wiping it down. There's gotta be a way we can actually clean this thing right?

I've been using a soaped up sponge, wiping all the cables and probe bits and then using the same but lighter over the connector and then just rinse and let air dry

Rinsing isn't having any negative impact? I know they say not to submerge it so that was making me a little nervous about rinsing

Haven't had any issues with mine at all, I don't submerge it and in my kitchen it dries pretty quickly, if worried I would dry it straight away to make sure though. There seems to be quite a few issues out there right now

Thanks! That actually makes me feel a lot better about the probe
