Good luck getting your water to the right temp in a microwave without toeing the flashboil line, though.
Yeah. Coffe mug once handwarm, the next time boiling, isn't nice.
I tested my microwave with various volumes of water, took temperature readings, and developed a mental model. 450ml of water takes 5:45s to get to 193±1°F.
