just got a thermometer (6.99 at radioshack)
so went nuts measuring things ![]() i have a Tiger PDHB22U water heater, and keep it on the 208F program. 77F water 1.5L finished the 208F program in ~15min steam release before the beeping (program end) was at 189/87C this is just plain water, no tea: in "77F /25C" room temp gaiwan -- 177F /80.5C -- 161F in 2 min in "107.6F /44C" heated gaiwan -- 185F /85C -- 177F in 1min -- 168 in 2nd min after 1hour the machine's internal water temperature was 206.8F (thats pretty close to the 208F program's temp, but i will keep measuring after more hours see what happens). PS. my mr coffee puts out water around 172F. |
