Abstract
A method of operating a cooking appliance includes obtaining a set fluid temperature for a fluid within a cooking utensil, monitoring an actual fluid temperature via a first temperature sensor of a probe, determining a predicted air temperature above the fluid, monitoring an actual air temperature above the fluid via a second temperature sensor of the probe, comparing the actual air temperature to the predicted air temperature, and implementing a responsive action based on the comparison between the actual air temperature and the predicted air temperature.
