If the B&D coffee maker uses 216C , then go for it.
Do NOT repeat NOT go higher, if yours opened it's not because it
malfunctioned or was
improperly rated but because
your coffee maker overheated beyond design temperature, period.
Why? ........... who knows? ... maybe it dried up inside, some pipe or hole was blocked or dirty, it was aginst some cardboard box or very close to a stove, in any case the proof that it reached dangerous temperatures is that thernmal fuse triggered.
You want the new one to trigger at the same temperature.
In principle it won't , because it shouldn't reach that temperature again, and if the thermostat is damaged, then
that is the component to replace.
The blown thermal fuse is the symptom, not the illness.
Why take the B&D as an example?
Because basically all are made by the same monster Factory, only brand changes.
Look at this very interesting Video; if anything because it's eye opening:
