Temperature adjustment

The temperature adjustment capabilities refer to the specific temperature values that can be programmed into the electric kettle. It's important to note that this refers to automatic adjustment, where the kettle turns off or switches to temperature maintenance mode once the desired temperature has been reached.

If this paragraph contains several options separated by commas (for example, “60 °С, 80 °С, 90 °С”), this means that this model has several fixed temperature options. However, there are also devices with smooth adjustment, which allows you to adjust the temperature in steps of 5 °C, or even 1 °C; for such devices, the entire adjustment range is indicated here, for example, "60 — 100 °C".

The greater the number of temperature setting options available in an electric kettle, the more versatile it becomes, allowing for precise selection of the optimal brewing mode for various types of drinks. Here is a simple table of recommended temperatures:

white tea — 60 °C;
yellow tea -70 °C;
green tea — 80 °C;
black tea — 90 °C;
— rooibos, hibiscus — 100 °C (up to boiling);
baby food — 40 °C.

Of course, there are exceptions to such rules — depending on the specific type of drink. For example, some...varieties of green tea can be brewed at 90 °C.

Maintaining t° (kettle)

The ability to operate a classic kettle (see "Type") in the mode of maintaining the water temperature — when the heated water is kept hot due to the operation of the heater at low power. For kettles, unlike thermopots, this mode is far from necessary, so its presence is indicated separately in the specs.

Thermometer

A device that displays the temperature of the water in the kettle. The presence of a thermometer is useful if the water needs to be heated to a certain temperature. However, the thermometer does not automatically turn off the kettle, unlike a thermostat — this must be done manually. Also, the thermometer allows you to assess how much the heated water has cooled over time and whether it can be used without heating again.

Delay start timer

A function that allows you to pre-set the start time of the kettle. For example, you can pour water in the evening and set a timer for the morning, so that by the time you woke up, it has just boiled. This eliminates the need to turn on the kettle manually and wait for the water to heat up.
