it happens eventually with every one, some good brands too, all have been plastic, it seems to come from the water level gauge, should i empty out the water after it boils? any ideas?
Make sure you don’t ever let it "boil dry". Keep the water level at least for a cup to boil every time you use it.
Another reason could be that you have "dirty" water. I find that I need to clean the inside of the kettle every few months, otherwise the inside gets a coating of a rust like substance. To clean your kettle, boil water and about a cup of vinegar together in the kettle, let it sit for a number of hours, then rinse it out thoroughly (to get rid of the vinegar odour), and your kettle will be clean as a whistle.
