I recognize that many of you are visitors from other countries that don't use the Fahrenheit temperature scale. To that end, I created a special converter, below.

Fahrenheit to Celsius is on the left, and Celsius to Fahrenheit is on the right.

Enjoy!

What are the 4 Types of Temperature?

The four types of temperature scales are Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin, and Rankine scales. The earliest of these is the Fahrenheit Scale invented by the German-Dutch scientist Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736).

Celsius is the more common temperature scale used for cooking around the world, as most countries use it: 

• Celsius The most commonly used temperature scale in the world, used by nearly every country except the United States and a few other small nations. Celsius is also known as centigrade. 

Fahrenheit is used for cooking in some countries, including the United States, the Cayman Islands, the Bahamas, Belize, and Palau. In Fahrenheit, water freezes at 32° and boils at 212°. 

• The scale you use for measuring depends on the context and what people around you are using. For example, in Canada, most kitchen appliances are labeled with both Celsius and Fahrenheit, but Fahrenheit is often used for cooking because of imported appliances from the United States. 

Historically, Americans use the Fahrenheit scale for daily life, including for weather and cooking, so it is best to use Fahrenheit measurements in the United States. But most countries use Celsius, so it is better to use that scale across the rest of the globe, and while communicating internationally.
