In the case of hot coffee beverages, there are minimum and maximum temperature ranges to achieve proper extraction and the favorable taste customers demand. Unfortunately, these temperatures often exceed certain burn thresholds. If there is an accident and a customer sues, knowing the scientific reasoning behind your brew can be the difference between a quick settlement and a costly lawsuit.
