I wanted a mug of coffee, so I put the coffee and sugar in the mug and turned the kettle on and went away while it boiled.
I came back 15 mins later, thinking I woulld have to re-boil the kettle as it had probably cooled down somewhat.
When I got to the kettle I saw a collegue pouring out his mug of tea and he asked if I wanted water in mine, so I said yes thanks, thinking he must have already re-boiled the kettle.
After taking a couple of sips I thought, this tastes so much better than usual, and is obviously cooler than I would normally have it, so I asked if he had re-boiled the kettle, to which he said no, just poured it out as it seemed hot enough.
So does it taste better because the water was only warm instead of just off boiling like I normally make my coffee, or is it just my imagination???
