Fresh water supports cleaner-tasting tea and coffee. Fill to the quantity required, close the lid correctly and allow the normal boiling cycle to complete. Steam is extremely hot, so pour using the designated handle and keep the spout away from hands and face.

Cleaning and descaling
Scale is mineral residue left as water is repeatedly heated. Follow the manufacturer's descaling guidance and rinse thoroughly. Keep the base and connector dry, and clean exterior materials without abrasive tools that may damage the finish.
How to choose
Compare usable capacity, verified wattage, material, element design, water-level visibility, lid access, cordless handling and safety controls. Features should match how you actually prepare hot drinks rather than simply increasing specification count.
