How long does it take for a liter of boiling water to chill to 82deg C in a room temp environment?

i'm just curious how long it takes that pot of water to cool down to the ideal temperature for brewing white tea, without using a thermometer.. just for curiousity's sake and because i don't have a thermometer :)
