Electric Kettles

Electric kettles are much more convenient, faster, and safer than using the stove or microwave to heat water. Kettles should ideally permit heating water to several pre-set temperatures. Delicate floral teas require far lower temperatures than robust black tea or Pu’er. Safety shut-offs, efficient boilers, and sturdy construction with comfortable handles and wide mouths for filling are minimums.
