How to heat water without making tea
Follow the directions for making tea with the infuser but leave the tea and
infuser out of the kettle. Use hot water as desired.
Boil-dry protection
The kettle comes equipped with boil-dry protection. While you should never
heat the kettle without water at least to the MIN line (0.5 litres), should the unit
go dry or start without water, it will automatically shut off completely to avoid
damaging the heating element. It will not come back on, even if you replace it
on the base, until it has cooled down.
Automatic Keep Warm function
As soon as the kettle comes to a boil, its LED lights switch from red to green,
indicating that it is in Keep Warm mode. The kettle will keep your water or tea
hot for up to 1 hour. Lifting the kettle from its base will turn the Keep Warm
function off.
Mute function
To mute the kettle's beeps, press and hold the BOIL button for 5 seconds.
To turn the sound back on, simply press and hold the same button again
for 5 seconds.
Brewing Temperature Guide
The chart below is intended as a starting point for brewing your perfect cup of
tea. You may need to vary the amount of tea and steeping times based on the
kind of tea, the size of the leaves, and your personal preference. The kettle also
heats water to the perfect temperature for pour-over coffee (use a pour-over
decanter and filter setup; do not put coffee in the tea infuser).
