If you like milk in your coffee, use warm or hot milk, to avoid overcooling the coffee. To extract maximum flavour from the coffee, it should be cool enough not to scald or burn the mouth, but hot enough to let the flavour fill the mouth, nose and sinuses, not just the taste buds. 5 bottled water 31 If you use bottled water, check that there are no added ingredients, flavourings, etc. , and use still water, not sparkling.
