8 Sept 2026
Author: Borniak

We have good news for users of GrillEye MAX – Borniak Edition thermometers. Thermometers with GrillDirect firmware installed can now be paired with the Borcook app. This allows you to access readings from connected probes directly in the app.

What is already available?

After updating a compatible thermometer using the free GrillDirect software, you can:

  • pair the thermometer with the Borcook app,
  • monitor temperatures from connected probes,
  • set target temperatures,
  • use temperature alarms,
  • use the thermometer offline and within your local Wi-Fi network (LAN).

An interface adapted to the number of probes

GrillDirect automatically adapts the temperature display to the number of connected probes. With one probe, the temperature is displayed in a large and easy-to-read format. When additional probes are connected, the interface allows you to conveniently monitor several measurements at the same time.
