Coffe is ready to drink at 180 degrees F. Maybe not ready for taking
big gulps, but coffee is something to be sipped and savored. Certainly
it is not something intended to be dumped in your crotch. Cold coffee
is not something that I like. I never was a great fan of McD's, but
now their coffee too cold to enjoy.

I drink coffee (usually bought) and hot tea (usually made). I just
measured a cup of tea after making it and removing the bag, in the
cup. 202°F on my digital thermocouple meter.

As to coffee, I expect to be able to buy it 1/2 hour before gametime,
take it to a hockey arena and still have it at a drinkable temperature
at least through the first period. Or for it to stay hot through
reading the Sunday newspaper. Lukewarm food and drink should be
limited to infants and others who are unable to take care of
themselves.
