    That’s a common misunderstanding.

    125°F means it is 25% hotter than 100% too hot.

      So 125° F is like saying it’s WAY TOO HOT! Thank you, I think I’m beginning to understand Flaffenfeit better now.

      It’s a bit like measuring in yards, but they never say whether it’s front yards or back yards, which is quite significant IMO. But even a hundred yards isn’t very far, so I guess they must have some pretty funny small yards over there.
