Hello Steve, as I mentioned earlier, my wife and me were on a Thomas Cook (3) weeks package tour of Western Europe including Britain and Spain. Almost every where we got luke warm coffee. When we asked for "piping hot" coffee, the girls would just smile and gesture. Ultimately we would search out Starbucks, the American chain, for good hot coffee. And Starbuck's "small" would be equivalent to Europe's "large" size cups. Also Steve, hot black coffee (except Turkish or Arabic "kahwa") taste just the same almost anywhere in the world, when brewed from the same bean type. India & Brazil are the world's largest coffee producers. Also the best tea in the world comes from India. Regards. Bipin - from that far away enchanting land.
