This electric tea kettle will change your life! One of the most important aspects of brewing tea is water temperature. The Pino Digital Kettle Pro has a digital readout that lets you set a desired temperature to the degree. Then the kettle maintains it there for as long as needed. It also displays the current temperature, so you can pull the kettle off early, or get an idea about its progression.
The kettle is classy looking and easy to use. I personally use this kettle for our tea tastings and at events when I serve tea at other locations. It will boil two cups of water in about 2 minutes.

Rather than having to burn a candle underneath a container of potpourri fluid, I would prefer an electric warmer. While I know they do make electric warmers for that purpose, I see where I can buy a beverage warming plate for about $6. If that would work, it’s less expensive than any potpourri electric simmering pot I’ve found.
If you or someone you know has tried a beverage warming plate for potpourri, I’d like to hear how successful it was. Thanks.
~~Yes you could. I would put the oil in a glass bowl and set in on the warming plate. Or even a coffee cup would work.~~

its a solid-sterling-silver antique teapot, id be using it on a regular electric stove on the top burner
Putting any teapot, antique or not, metal or china/earthenware, over direct heat could damage it and possibly injure the person using it. You don’t boil the tea in the pot; you boil the water in a teaKETTLE or any pan and pour it over the tea leaves or bags in the pot. (It helps to pour a little boiling water into the empty pot, swish it around, and then pour it out, before putting in the tea and the rest of the water.)
…w/o damaging the stove?
I would like a whistling tea kettle. Do you use one? What do you recommend? We have a burner on the stove that is a warming burner so I could put the kettle on that after the water is hot and it will stay hot.
We have one now and it really makes a lot of noise and seems to be ‘bouncing’ on the stove when it heats up. I am afraid it is going to damage the stove. I am thinking it is a mainstay brand but not positive as I don’t see the name on it. The pictures I have seen of that brand look like what we have though.
I see a lot of electric pots but I really don’t need another appliance for limited counter tops!
Would also like a ‘decent’ coffeemaker that makes GOOD coffee but isn’t really expensive! Is that a possibility now days? I have read so many different reviews on all types and get more frustrated each time! I have quit using the one I had and gone to making either ‘instant’ or one cup at a time with a filter that fits on top of the mug. What do you recommend for this?
If you’re having trouble with your current teakettle bouncing around on the warming burner, then it’s likely that you’ll have trouble with a different metal teakettle bouncing around. If it were me, I’d try one of those little Corning Ware teapots made for stovetop use. It might not have the tendency to bounce around when on the warming burner.
Warming burner: Sounds like a great option that I wouldn’t mind having.
Electric tea kettle: I am crazy about my Melitta electric teakettles. I have two. I use one upstairs in the winter when I want to snuggle in bed with continuous cups of hot tea of various kinds. I keep one downstairs in the kitchen for the same use.
Good coffeemaker: GOOD coffee depends both on the coffeemaker AND mostly the kind of coffee you use. If your coffee isn’t good, try putting a little more coffee in the basket to the same amount of water before you just chunk your coffeemaker. I have a Capresso which grinds the beans and then swings the basket over for brewing. It can be set up the night before. Very convenient and also a SPACE HOG. However, I find that it brews and drips a bit too quickly for the strength of coffee I’d like to drink so to fix that, I remove the pot during the first part of brewing so that the coffee in the brew basket has an opportunity to become completely soaked with water. Then I put the pot in. This extra effort only takes 1 or 2 minutes longer and it’s well worth it.
Try the above two tricks before chunking your coffeemaker for a new one. I can’t stand instant or the kind that brews in your mug like a teabag. YUCK!

My son left a ceramic tea pot on the burner and it melted on to the electric burner. How do I remove it? I am afraid to turn the heat on.
First disconnect burner from the heat source ie. cylinder or pipe gas . then try cleaning it with scrubber or something very hard surface .

My brother is going to live in the dorms at school and I wated to get him something that he could cook food in or boil water or something….sm crock pot, electric tea kettle….??? Do any of you have any suggestions??
My guy uses his George Foreman grill a lot. Big meat-eater.
I had a food steamer going as well as a rice cooker, and a electrical kettle.
but the one with the rice cooker and electric tea pot plugged into it still works.
what has happened to the others?
how can i repair them?
(btw, I tried turning off and on the switch in rthe breaker box, but they still dont work. just that one out of the four)
if the sockets are in a radial circuit ..ie.. wiried one after the other then the one that is still working is supply the others in series ..a wire must have come lose inside the working socket … isolate your supply and look at the terminals at the back of the socket reinsert any loose cable ends and tighten screws ok
