What are the small black balls inside a floating thermometer (the kind used in wine/beer making)?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Winemaking thermometers don’t contain mercury, but they do contain volatile chemicals, like toluene. If you break one into your must, discard the batch immediately.
IT IS NOT GOOD FOR CONSUMING PLS DONT .

A Black Globe Temperature (GT) thermometer is a black copper ball with dry bulb inside that measures the intensity of radiant energy to give a temperature that reflects not just how warm it is but how warm it feels. The effect of radiation is important under all temperature conditions as excess radiation always increases the heat load on an animal.

i read in many places it is lead or this black copper ball so it hink there is no harm just filter properly the wine then consume.
The thermometer may contain volatile chemicals, but what about the glass surrounding the thermometer? The thermometer itself didn't break just the black stuff at the bottom. Do you know what that is made of?
