       Useless device idea: a cup with a built in thermometer and alarm. When the liquid you pour inside reaches not-scorching temperature, it sets the alarm off, thus preventing you from either burning your tongue or drinking your tea at less than ideal temperature.

       Just a modified meat thermometer adapted to a cup should do the trick, honestly.

       The internet says the ideal tea drinking temperature is 57C so to prevent tongue burninating

       I’m absolutely using a meat thermometer on my cup now. 62C didn’t burn my mouth but was slightly too hot to enjoy the flavour - still numbed my tastebuds60C let more flavour come through but definitely more heat than taste58C seems to be where you start to not get numbed by the heat so I can see the 57C suggestion.Honestly my delicate tastebuds would prefer 56C or 55C.So there you have it. Make tea and let it cool down to mid-50C for proper enjoyment.
