Hot Coffee [Thermo Killer Sudoku]
(Published on 20. February 2021, 08:00 by ogi.djukovic)
Good morning everyone. Here is sudoku puzzle that consists of standard killer and thermo clues. It is supposed to look like a cup of coffee. Handle is a bit pointy, but I couldn't make it prettier.
[Normal sudoku rules apply. Along thermometers, digits must increase from the bulb end.In cages, digits must sum to the small clue in the top left corner of the cage. Digits cannot repeat within a cage.]
This is one of my first puzzles created and the first tough one I would say. So any feedback is highly appreciated and more than welcome.
[Edit] I might be wrong on puzzle difficulty, I am new to this site
I hope you will enjoy!
Solution code: 3rd row followed by 6th row

The difficulty seems "average" for me (3 stars). It is not too difficult, but the opening trick is pretty cool, and it still requires reasoning all along the solve . It's a very pleasant puzzle, nice work !
[ogi.djukovic] Thanks you Sktx, I'm glad you liked the puzzle. Congrats on being first one to solve :D
