• Recommend me a kettle. Proper BIFL one but electric, not hob.

    Does that actually exist? I mean, is one electric kettle any better than another? I'm sure we've all seen dirt cheap kettles in workshops/offices that have been used 30 times daily for decades. FWIW we've had no problem with this in the roughly 6 years we've used it. Living in a hard water area, the integrated filter is useful especially since I can transfer filtered water from it to my espresso machine.

  • Some kettles are much faster than others. Also if you are a tea snob having one with accurate temperature control can be really useful.

    Or you can just have your coffee machine on and have boiling water on tap.
