RE: Thanks for the clarification.

Not really if I had to guess just slightly below boiling. I have limited experience with Moka pots but a vacuum pot works on a similar but not identical principal and the water that hits the beans is just a few degrees off of boiling when it gets pushed up to the grounds in a vacuum pot. Wlevation will also affect the temperature since water boils at a lower temperature with higher altitude. My guess would be that a Moka pot or a vacuum pot will be as close as you get to the ideal temperature in regular coffee. Most drip coffee makers use water far below the ideal temperature. The only consistent exception to this that I am aware of is the Technivorm which does not use a pump and uses water pressure to force the hot water into the filter basket.
