Those things are a pain in the ass tbh. We used to have old-fashioned wall-mounted urns at work and they were bang on for V60 brews because they sat at 97-98°C and you could control the flow really well. The new hot tap things aren’t hot enough to make a decent cup of tea and flow in a fast jet that sprays all the coffee out of a V60. I switched to an Aeropress but you have to leave it for bloody ages and you still get a weak brew.

Does anyone work in an office where they have those 'hot' tap things? No idea what temp it is but it's well below that needed to make a decent cup of coffee (light roast) or tea for that matter. What's the best option - make coffee at home and bring in thermos? Try a darker roast coffee? Currently I just give up and go out to a cafe but want to try and make my own if I can.
