Stove kettle, electric kettle, or other? Brands?

I use electric. I love the convenience, and most electrics are safer than stoves. It quickly boils the water. If you pay attention, you can stop the water from boiling, and get the perfect temperature.

Not sure if this should be a separate thread, but what about outdoor brewing? Thermos? Camp stove? charcoal and cast iron?

One other idea, if you have a lot of people who drink tea in your house.

There are asian made dispensers which always keep water hot. You just press the button for hot water. About $100 for a Toshiba model.

We have a Breville one touch and it’s amazing, and very easy to use! you can use the pre-sets or customize it…….totally worth the higher price tag.

Picked up a Krups today. Works well. Around $50…temp hold, presets and auto shutoff.

I have this one (the metric version in Celcius): https://www.cuisinart.com/products/tea_kettles/cpk-17.html
Its temperature controlled and has a range just wide enough for delicate teas to boiling. Double walled, stay warm feature. The only thing it does not have is the gooseneck design on something like a Bonavita. I almost bought the Breville One Touch (sold as Solis here and as Sage I think in the UK) but then I discovered gong fu style brewing.

I love my Cuisinart Perfect Temp Kettle, it is so convenient – correct temperature based on the tea type, can keep water temp at desired heat level, and turns off (if set to) when temperature is reached. Love it!
