So you've got one?

I don't need one...I just put my beer in the snow.
My same philosophy when it comes to coozies - I drink my beer fast enough that it doesn't get warm.
Jesus, that's hot.
Then again, water boils at 197F at my house.
My Keurig is set at 191F.
Is that the high alt. setting? I'm guessing so. Wish I could manually adjust mine.
on the menu where you set the clock and on/off times & stuff, there's a "brew temperature" setting.
IIRC, 185F-195F, or something along those lines.
The coffee nerds claim that it's impossible to make proper espresso at 5k ft. http://www.espressovivace.com/archives/lucidcafe/LC15.pdf
I brew my French press coffee at 205F. When I've made coffee at lower than 200F, it tastes too thin.
Had a buddy with an Orca Cooler at a Christmas party last night. Seems very well built.
This one actually.

I've seen the Orca coolers. They make some cool colors from mixing the stuff. Almost like a Tie Dye cooler.
Cooler comparison test... Spoiler alert**** Yeti lost!****

What a shit-ass "shootout". More like some good ole boys at Four Wheeler wanted some free coolers and the shootout is a result of the absolute least amount of work necessary to obtain said free coolers. I mean, they didn't even test it in the harshest of all environments; the back of Dan's truck!
I'm assuming all the coolers were filled with the same amount of drinks? That's not what it sounds like though, "For the test, they were loaded with 20 pounds of ice with drinks filling the remaining space." Sounds like the larger capacity coolers would be at a disadvantage if the just filled all the remaining space with warm drinks.
How about telling us how long you opened each cooler for each day? Was it just open and close, or was there rummaging around done once the cooler was opened?
They also could have done some more comparisons. How about the actual size of each cooler? Or their weight" Or latches? Or ease of carrying?
Damn rednecks.

^pretty happy with my pelican cooler. That test reassures that.
I like the hasps a lot more on my pelican than the yeti, too.
