Thermowell filled up with water

I am using a thermowell set inside a carboy cap with a Johnson controller and a chest freezer. My thermowell filled up on the inside with water, probably from condensation. Doesn’t really bother me to much but I am concerned that my temp probe will eventually get water in it and short out. Thinking I might have to pull out the thermo well even few days and drain the water out? Any one dealt with this or have other suggestions?

Get some DampRid at your local hardware store and put it in the freezer.

I have sort of the same setup but NEVER get a drop inside the thermowells.  Could if be that you got some sanitizer in the tube?  I always put a 000 stopper in mine when not in use so I don’t get any liquid in there.

Positive I didn’t get sanitizer in it. I will try the damp rid out
