Chili Ron Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Howdy, I just heard that the proper serving temp of coffee is 177F. So the next pot I made I stuck in a temp and guess what---178F. My maker went 175 to 180F the next few pots. This is not the brewing temp and I don't suggest anyone gulp this down but sip. I find the coffee at or about this temp is real good especially in January. Check for yourself and be careful. Best CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Well there is a certain magic at that temperature. When you add your favorite ingredient to make it Irish copy the overall temp will drop into the 150s-160s and the alcohol will not boil off.

Subdeacon Joe Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Alcohol in your coffee. Well I never...... Yeah....tell us another! For brewing "experts" seem to agree that around 205 is the best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 There was a thinkg on the Internet the other day about 10 things not to do with your food. One was "Do not put alcohol in your coffee. It interferes with the fresh brewed taste and who wants to have the taste of Scotch in their coffe?" SCOTCH?? What an idiot.

And at this altitude water boils at exactly 205°. Makes it pretty simple for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best CR I heat water on my stove top in a small pan and use a electronic temp gun to check it. When its about 165-180 I take it off and brew my coffee with it in a french press. No electricity, easy to clean, fast great tasting coffee within minutes of wanting it....Trash your coffee pots and get a french press, there cheaper than a electric coffee pot thats gonna just burn out anyway and take up less shelf space!
