• Avoid steeping for too long, which can make tea taste bitter.
• If making iced tea, double the amount of tea leaves and steep a little
longer so when chilled the flavor does not get diluted.
• If your loose tea comes with brewing instructions, defer to those
initially for optimum amounts and steeping time.
• Save money by re-steeping tea. Though black teas generally give
up all their flavor during the first brew, some teas, like green tea and
oolong, may be re-steeped within a few hours; let them steep a little
longer during the second steep for best flavor.
HOW TO HEAT HOT WATER WITHOUT MAKING TEA
Follow the directions for making tea with the diffuser on p. 8 but leave
the diffuser out of the kettle. Presets and keep warm function all work the
same; use hot water as desired.
SPECIAL FEATURES AND SAFETY FUNCTIONS
Recent Selection Saving
You don’t have to reset the kettle every time you use it. After first use,
the default setting of your Electric Kettle+ will be the last setting you
programmed.
Automatic Keep Warm Function
The Electric Kettle+ will keep your water or tea hot for up to 1 hour.
During the Keep Warm phase, the unit’s indicator lights will be green, the
words Keep Warm and a timer counting to 1 hour will display. When Keep
Warm time ends, the kettle will go into standby mode; the display will
still be on and the indicator lights will be white. After 20 minutes with no
action, the unit will go into sleep mode with all lights off.
Memory Function
The Electric Kettle+ features an internal memory that lets you remove the
kettle from the base without the unit turning off. Instead, heating or Keep
Warm (depending on which mode unit was in) will pause and the kettle
will continue heating or warming when it’s returned to its base. This is
true so long as temperature has not dropped by more than 20°F during
the time the kettle was without power. If it has dropped by more than
that, the kettle will go into standby mode.
Boil-Dry Protection
The Electric Kettle+ comes equipped with boil-dry protection. While
you should never heat the kettle without water at least to the MIN line,
should the unit go dry or start without water, it will automatically shut off
completely to avoid damaging the heating element. It will not come back
on, even if you replace it to the base, until it has cooled down. To quickly
cool it down, add cold water to the kettle.
