خلفية ثقافية
Finns consider 20°C to be 'lämmin' and 25°C to be 'kuuma.' In the sauna, however, 'kuuma' doesn't start until 80°C. Finnish immigrants in hot climates (like Florida or Australia) often joke about 'olla kuuma' because they are used to the cold. Finns drink coffee very hot and very often. If the coffee isn't 'kuumaa,' it's considered bad hospitality. Complaining that it is 'kuuma' in the office is a standard way to start a conversation with a colleague.
