NOTE This product is not calibrated for commercial or scientific use. Temperatures may vary +/-5 degrees, being within range for optimal brewing for each type of tea or coffee. Optimal brewing Tea varieties are grown and produced in different environments and require specific water temperatures to allow their unique flavour and aroma to develop during brewing. To bring out the optimal quality and taste of more delicate tea leaves, a lower temperature will produce a better flavoured cup of tea. For example, steeping green, white or oolong teas in boiling water may scald the tea leaves and result in a bitter, astringent brew. Brewing the tea for too long may also result in a bitter, unpleasant taste, while brewing for too short a period may leave the tea bland. For best results always follow the specific directions on the tea/coffee packet. To bring out the optimal taste and quality of your favourite tea or coffee, we recommend that you use your Variable Temperature Kettle at the suggested temperature for your selected tea or coffee. The table below provides a guide to a range of tea and coffee varieties and the recommended temperature to select using your SET TEMP button. Keep warm function To activate the KEEP WARM function, first press the desired water temperature by pressing the SET TEMP button and select one of the five options on the LED panel. Then press the KEEP WARM button, followed by the START/CANCEL button to commence heating the water. Alternatively, the KEEP WARM button can be activated within one minute after the heating cycle has completed. When the water has reached the selected Celsius temperature, the KEEP WARM function will hold the selected temperature for 20 minutes. If the boil temperature is selected when using the KEEP WARM function, the boiled water will remain at approximately 95°C for 20 minutes. NOTE If the kettle is removed from the power base during the KEEP WARM function the kettle will automatically reset.
