HEATING WATER TO A SELECTED TEMPERATURE

Your kettle's variable temperature mode allows you to tailor the water temperature to suit specific teas, coffee and even baby food and milks. The range is adjustable from 40-100°C in 5°C increments.

Heating water to a precise temperature depends on several factors. One of these is the amount of water you are trying to heat. The final temperature of a small quantity of water may overshoot the desired temperature. If it is important that the temperature of the water is exact, we recommend using the Keep Warm feature of your kettle which will allow the temperature of the water to stabilise naturally.
