A coffee maker makes coffee by passing steam through a mixture of coffee powder, milk and water. If the steam is mixed at the rate of $50 \,g$ per minute in a mug containing $500 \,g$ of mixture, then it takes about $t_0$ seconds to make coffee at $70^{\circ} C$ when the initial temperature of the mixture is $25^{\circ} C$. The value of $t_0$ is close to .......... $s$ (ratio of latent heat of evaporation to specific heat of water is $540^{\circ} C$ and specific heat of the mixture can be taken to be the same as that of water)
