C'mon, you know you have. I usually do when I use my insulated mug.

I should say "did" because I have solved the problem:

I use a drip coffee maker (as most of us do) and good coffee w/ filtered water (both vital). So, you take your usual ratio that you like (spoons of coffee to cups of water) and then make it a WEE bit stronger, say by 1/2 a spoon of coffee or half a cup less water and then brew it, baby!!

Put ONE ice cube in your mug and pour the coffee over it (not the other way around, for some reason it doesn't work as well) and put the top to the mug on right away. You will find that your coffee is pleasantly hot and will stay that way a long time but WILL NOT BURN YOUR MOUTH!! Use a good mug with screw-on not push-in top.

I should really get a life, huh?

At least I won't have a seared tongue or blistered palate!!

Hope you try and post results!!

Be well, all.

Hot sticky cheese from pizza is the worst. Will an ice cube work for that?
