Why Use a 987 Minute Timer?
Here are some popular ways to use a 987-minute countdown:
- Paint & Glue Curing: Many paints, varnishes and adhesives need several hours before the next coat or before they can be used.
- Overnight Marinade: Meat and tofu absorb more flavour when they marinate for 8 to 24 hours. Set the countdown and plan the next meal.
- Cold Fermentation: Sourdough and pizza dough develop more flavour during a long, cold proof in the fridge.
- 24-Hour Challenge: Game jams, hackathons and charity streams often run around the clock, and 16 hours and 27 minutes on a big screen keeps everyone motivated.

Does the timer keep running if my computer goes to sleep?
The countdown is calculated from the real clock time. If your device sleeps, the display jumps to the correct remaining time when it wakes up.
