    You should absolutely not wash your chicken, it is unnecessary and can splash bacteria around. Cook it to 165 F and youre 100% safe from bacteria.

        For the lazy:

        • you want 65°C for three minutes
        • 75°C is unnecessary
        • dark meat will be at like 77°C

                We don’t use “Imperial kingdom units.” We use US Customary units which are different. Just like your “metric” system is different from SI.

                    While it’s possible to special order Imperial thread standard spanners, it’s unlikely you are buying those. US Customary screw specifications are a separate thing, (have been so for over 100 years now), and have nothing to do with Imperial anything. There are some sizes that will fit, much as some metric wrench sizes will also fit US Customary and vice versa. But there are bunches of Imperial sizes that have no correlation to US Customary standards for machine screws.

                    Source: Old, cranky, retired toolmaker that has had to custom make screws for everything from laboratory equipment, cameras, to antique cars and tractors to 200 year old firearms. I’m familiar with more screw standards than you even know exist.

          I might be wrong, but I think they meant get the internal temperature to 150 and maintain that for three minutes.

          I am not qualified to say whether that’s accurate, but I believe the interpretation is.
