How do I know that the coconut water/milk has been heated to the recommended 92 degrees?

92 degrees should feel lukewarm and be at approximately skin temperature. You will want to be careful not to exceed this temperature for fermenting. It is more important not to overheat the water than not to heat it enough, so it is best to err toward the side of lower heat. You may want to purchase a candy or cooking thermometer to ensure that you heat the water to the ideal temperature.
