The sink at my work has a 'steaming' water dispenser that pours water out at 190 degrees f. Is that enough to kill the germs in my water cup?

  1. yes it will.


  2. 140 will kill salmonilla and botullism, 150 for e-coli and most other bacterial pathogens.  160 to 170 will kill most viral and fungal things, so, at 190 you're well within the sanitization of things.
