A table for predicting the ideal temperature for a given hotend & nozzle, versus material & color. Use the "standard" thermistor placement from your hotend's instructions, and be as specific as possible in identifying your material, at the very least specify the provider if not a specific blend number. For instance, Ultimachine provides a datasheet for 4043D PLA, but does not specify if this applies to all their PLA, while ABS is available in a huge assortment of blends, often not identified by anything but the name of the source.
