Hello there,
This is a small curiosity thing. After I made myself some hot chocolate I cleaned the pan and put it back on the stove. Water would drip on the burner resulting in timed "shhh" sounds and change over time.

I'm wondering how it all changes in between heats like idk 120°c vs 200° vs 300° vs 1000 etc...

There is this sound which provides clean recording for the phenomenon, but no stated heat smile https://freesound.org/people/soundslikewillem/sounds/209336/

I know at some point, it's hot enough for it to not evaporate in one go and a drop would just glide on the surface. Apparently it's at around 193°c
What does it sound like at 190°c on the edge of the phenomenon?

Also worth trying different surfaces for the water, different metals, tiles, stone IDK. I presume different heat conductivity would result into different sounds.

I don't have a thermometer so can't provide these sounds myself smile
Cheers!
