Is it true that 180F is optimal?

180F is the minimum to boil off any water. The maximum is typically 212F.
Check your operating limitations.

212F sounds a bit low. While that is the boiling point of water,
most of the Lycs I've flown behind have a max oil temp of around 240F.
Oil begins to break down at around 260F.
