OXO 71190 Questions and Answers


#1 I read that the kettle must be emptied after each use. Can one do this by shaking out the kettle or is there always some that has to be sponged out?

It is adequate to empty & shake the kettle out after using. When its empty I always leave the spout open to allow for complete drying.

#2 Kettle only whistles after steam has been coming out for 4 minutes. Does any1 else experience this or should it whistle as soon as the steam appears?

Mine whistles when water starts boiling. Not 4 minutes later.

#3 How many ounces does the oxo brew uplift tea kettle, brushed stainless steel hold? i am not seeing that info in the description

Approximately 80 ounces. I used a quart mason jar and it filled it 2 1/2 times (10 cups).
