Very hot, better than any other coffee pot I have ever had. I will never use a drip coffee maker again. Will always use a percolator. Hot and good

Don't know the exact temp., but it is definitely hotter than the drip we used to use... too hot to drink right away black, but perfect after a bit of cream is added :)

I just used an infrared thermometer and it says that the surface temp of the plate is 213 degrees F. The coffee is no where near this hot though mainly because the ceramic mug is an insulator and not a conductor.

You can use cold water, but it will take more coffee to make espresso. Water temp around 185 F tends to make the best espresso. Just ask any experienced barista working at a good coffee shop.

I thought temp to be approx. 220 degrees. I remember it being the highest temp of similar machines at the time I purchased. It is very light, maybe 2 pounds when full of water.

This coffee maker does a better job than most at getting water hot enough. It has a 3 or 4 step temp setting for the warmer plate. I don't know if this also effects the brewing temp or not.

I am not sure... But I usually put hot coffee in it for my commute into work... And I set it up for 120° which seems to be about the perfect temperature ....that does not take long at all

The temperature will vary depending on the temperature of the water being used. We use an under the sink water filter to dispense drinking / cooking water. Using that filtered water the Cuisinart DCC produces a temperature of 160 degrees. In my view, that's just right for drinking. If a coffee mug is used, consider warming the mug.

I have no problem at all the temp of my coffee...as a matter of fact, it's so hot that it's hard to take that first sip without cooling it down first and I do like my coffee hot.

I am not interested enough to put a temperature gauge in the coffee, but think about it. The water has to boil or turn into a vapor in order to push the water from the lower pot and into the upper pot. Last I heard, water boils at 212 degrees. I don't know about other people, but I remove the pot from the heat as soon as all of the water moves into the upper level. I like the coffee this way and the time to brew is quicker. If you like stronger coffee, you might just reduce the heat and it will take longer to return to the lower level . WARNING No matter how you time your coffee brew, you must not leave the pot unattended while it brews. All my friends like this coffee and I use Folgers.

I ran a pot of water thru without coffee to test temp and measured with a candy thermometer @ 170 degrees just out of the machine if that helps.

As an extension of my answer: I measured the coffee temperature this AM with IR thermometer, 170 degrees. Bill

The fluid coming out of my coffee maker measures approximately 150 degrees with two different thermometers. That was into a cold container so I would think it would be a little hotter directly from the machine.

According to the booklet provided I believe it indicates the temperature of the water at the inlet is at or slightly above 190 degrees F, ideal temp for brewing coffee

I'm told by coffee barista's that water should be at least 200 -F to achieve a full body flavor. Unfortunately this machine only heats water to 90-100f.

The brew belt should reach temperatures of 75-80 degrees. It's normal that it should feel too hot to the touch.
