Can I take the rubber part off? I need something to put in boiling water to elevate a pyrex bowl in the water so it doesn't sit on the bottom &amp; break

Yes, with a little prying with my thumbnail, I was able to remove one of the rubber feet.

Something like a semi soft spatula, inserted underneath will pry it off. It's not like it's glued on. I actually had to take off the top lcd protector when I fell and dropped it and it cracked, but saved the lcd display on the camera. It just popped right off using my pocketknife

There's a gasket between the pieces at the bottom. You can melt it if you crank the thing up really high without anything in it. Forgot mine while preheating it and the gasket was smoking. Never had a problem when there was stuff in it though. Also ... too hot for too long and the handle can get really hot.

Because it is rubber I would advise against it. Most rubber hot water bottles degrade much faster with boiling water. Also boiling water can cause damage to the rubber on the inside where you cannot see, which could cause the bottle to fail. It is best to use hot tap water. You could also mix boiling water with some cold to bring the temperature down. Hope this helps.

Yes it is removeable. Be delicate with it...there is a very small hose that draws the water up...if it were mishandled and broken I think it would be hard to replace. the directions say the float aparatus on the bottom is crucial to the high heat this machine touts. It also says that if you leave the water tank out, the machine wil function like any other cofee maker...at regular cofee maker temps vs. high heat temp. nice to know

I have no idea what you are asking... Do you have this bowl in your cart and want to remove it? If so go to your Amazon cart and click "remove". Otherwise the bowl itself is its own bowl. So if you don't want to use it, you have to pick it up and put down another bowl. Sorry if that's not the answer you're looking for but your question was pretty vague.

you shouldnt normally need to remove the beaker.. if it came out easily then you might be in more of a danger of it just falling out when pouring. it is very easy to wash though. another good thing from my experience, is that the frame covers more of the glass surface, so it is better protected. i have broken several of these, but they make amazing coffee so i have to have one. this one has lasted. when cleaning you only need to remove the top and screen plunger assembly, use a rubber spatula to scoop out the grinds, and rinse with warm water. never ever ever ever use a metal spoon. take it from me.. for some reason it cracks the glass, even when you are very careful. IF you need to remove the beaker.. say it cracks and needs replacing, then soaking it in very hot water will help to remove it... so when making your coffee make sure you dont turn the beaker... i found this out with my first one...i couldnt figure out why the pour spout was shifting slightly.. when it cools down it doesnt move very easily, if at all.....lol hope this helps

No..hmmm...I just twist and it's off. Don't drop it like I did cause if you break the plastic piece that locks it in to start it, you'll be ordering a new bowl like I had to..ugh

I'm pretty sure no....there is rubber on bottom that could possibly melt. I would call the company.

It is made of plastic. As for heat, I ruined one because I put it in the dishwasher. But, I put the new one in and it is fine. So, boiling hot may not be the best.

It's not easy to do lol, I ended up with a sharp tug and a quick pull and the rubber came off the case. It may take you a few minutes but yoyou should be able to get itit off.

Not without bending it with a pair of pliers. I see no need to remove it anyway. It has two separate folding methods - one is somewhat raised as shown in this picture which makes it easy to handle when cooking - the other is to flip it over to make it lower. Also handle does not get hot when cooking. Love this pot. When cooking soups and stews this is the only pot I use anymore.

I dont think it is rubber, more likely plastic. They call it Flexogen. They do say to wash hands after handling because it has some chemicals that could cause cancer and birth defects. It says it is not for use with hot water. They will replace the hose as it has a lifetime warrantee, all you do is send the two ends cut off (at your expense) to them, and you get a new hose. There is a Customer Service number 1-800-858-0107.

The internal black plastic rim that functions as a strainer when you pour, is not removable from the top to my knowledge. But I have to admit, I've never tried to separate the two. I assumed it was one piece.

Being cautious, I would remove the plastic bottom ring first...then just glass remains which can be microwaved. But the bowl is big...so you must have a very large microwave.

Probably not and it does not matter. With my new Chef's Secret pot, the gasket (rubber ring) is glued in place. I have not be able to remove it.

We do not offer the rubber separately, the entire bowl would have to be purchased.
