Don’t bother giving us data for your pour over or French press or whatever…duh! My Austrian made machine that uses the K cups brews to about 175°F. I typically preheat one of my stainless steel 12 ounce coffee mugs and that will keep my morning brew toasty for a long long time - but I’ve always wondered what some other brand new or older regular coffee maker or some of the really new ones they have out there are doing. Google says 185°F to 200°F is common. Are they right?

Please list your coffee maker brand model and approximate age and then stick a thermometer in there when you brew your next cup and list it here. Thanks.

We have 3 coffee makers. A Keurig, a cheapo drip pot from Walmart, and my steel pot for cowboy coffee. Never put a thermometer in any of them but they all get the coffee plenty hot, guessing close to 200. I boil the cowboy coffee 3 times so it is very hot and strong.
 
Philips HD 7612 1400 watts brews good hot coffee. I believe hese are no longer sold new, and the ones I have were made in the Netherlands. I've read 180F and up for the best taste. I haven't checked mine lately, but it used to meet this temp.

Hello. I purchased a grinder recently and have an aeropress/v60. I keep hearing people say the higher the temp the better but I also hear 85 Celsius is the best and that using water that’s too hot (boiling) can kill the flavor of the coffee. What temp should I be brewing my coffee at? Thanks!
 
I use a moka pot for coffee so the water is boiling. I don't buy premium coffee either so it's unlikely the flavour of my Folgers suffers from over exposure. It's made and done. No sitting on a hotplate. It's rare a mug of coffee lasts long enough that I need to heat it up.

I do my water at about 195-205F for aeropress and pour over.
 
We take our coffee serisously here at my house.

My brother goes to the length of weighing his pour, me I just eyeball it.

So we run one of these;

It outputs at 92C from the group head and 110C from the hot water wand.

My coffee is what I call a medium black, a double shot short pour (ristretto) and then about the same again of hot water.

No we are not a bunch of geeks... ;)
