Air is a terrible heat transfer medium…

> It is striking to see that water is 23.5 times more efficient in transferring heat than air. Further, given a specific volume of water flow over a hot component (the volumetric flow rate), water has a heat carrying capacity nearly 3,500 times that of air.

Nothing (vacuum) is even worse.

Boiling water gives you a known temp (without need of a thermometer) and much better heat transfer…
