how hot is lukewarm
Meaning of Lukewarm. In reality, lukewarm is a very inaccurate instruction to use in a recipe, but it usually gets the job done. There is no one agreed upon temperature or even relative scale that defines lukewarm. Some folks say lukewarm is body temperature, or approximately 98.6Â°F. Others say it is room temperature. Room temperature, of course, varies, but most agree it is from 72Â°F to 74Â°F (sometimes up to 78Â°F). Still others say lukewarm is room temperature plus about 15 degrees.
