Could someone tell me the optimal temperature of water to use? Mainly for health benefits, i can sacrifice flavor.

I am sorry, I don't use it hot. I put in smoothies cold. But here is a link to what you are asking.http://blog.breakawaymatcha.com/matcha-and-water-temperature/

I bring mine to a boil and then let it cool a bit so the mixture blends smoother.

I've put warm water inside, but not hot. Not sure about the toxic part though. Hope this helps!

Yes it's better to use distilled water. It's a cleaner water and it won't clog it up.

I think the variable temp is important. Some things just won't dry out at lower temps, and herbs and other "delicate" things won't retain as much flavor if dried at higher temps. This isn't theoretical, I'm telling you from experience and experimentation.

NO!! You should keep the water under 100 degrees Celsius because you are not supposed to put boiling water into it.

It has been awhile since i have used it, so this may not be accurate, but hot water may actually adversely affect the nutrients, so it may be best to dissolve it in only warm or cool water. It doesn't FEEL as satisfying that way, but it may be more beneficial though. The company could be consulted aboout that. https://cho-wa.com/

Do NOT use hot tap water. It comes from the hot water tank - think about it. That should never be used for drinking. Boil the water in a kettle instead.

Try medium fine to fine for a good starting point. Again, depends on the coffee, the temperature of the water, and your taste preferences.

I highly recommend warming the water first. Using cold water can be very uncomfortable.

do not use distilled h2o,use distilled water with a tea spoon of sodium bicarbonate or calcium carbonate.distilled water is too soft

I don't know sorry. The water isn't very hot though at its highest temp. I am using the kettle now. :(

yep, that is normal (it functions by boiling the water to vapor and drips out, so it will be hot for a good bit.) I like to make some ice cubes out of it to have on hand if my husband is impatient for cool water. I personally enjoy warm water (with a little lemon) as it is closer to the body's temperature. Don't forget to add minerals back to your distilled water (a little pinch of pink salt and a pinch of baking soda will get you some great alkalizing water)

not sure why you would want the water at 5.5....... and as for that, there are chemicals that can do it for you in a more controlled way, lemon juice can fluctuate a bit...

I'd stick with distilled water. Distilled water is best. Pipe water has too many contaminants that might collect in your tank.

Have always used cold tap water, but I would think distilled water would be better, and yes it would last longer, and you may not need to clean as often.

Oh boy, HB. You got so many interesting, funny, and/or stupid responses to this. Seeing as how it is now a year later, I'm sure this feed is dead, but I'm so happy I found it. Many teas steep well at 150 degrees (which is how hot this gets I believe), and anyone who has never put milk in their hot tea is truly missing out. I'm not sure if you were planning on just using water or using milk, but either way I think it's a winner.

I have used them with great success! very happy. I am not sure what you are asking about Temperature? it will work great in above 32 deg Farenheit = 0 celcius and I do not see any problem with it up to 50 Deg Celcius ( or 125 Fahrenheit) How hot or cold do you want to use it for? It works very reliable. I use it in $10'000 water features indoors.
