what temperature does this boil to before it shuts off ?

It goes to a full boil, i.e. 212.5F. I have a barista's thermometer stuck in one of the vent holes in the lid. That works great. Once it gets to a temperature, with the lid on, it will stay at that temp for a good while.

That would depend on your altitude. Borrow a good thermometer if you don't have one. A candy thermometer will get you in the ballpark.

Not sure the exact temperature but it is really boiling when it shuts off (tons of bubbles). I use it for pour-over coffee, so I actually shut it off before it gets too hot. If I would have to guess, I would say it shuts off around 98-100 celcius

I have not taken a thermometer to it, but it heats the water to when it begins to boil and then immediately shuts off.

Just tested it with a candy thermometer: Apprximately 202* F I took the lid off after it shut off to test it. I love this kettle!

This is a problem for lovers of expensive tea. Measure the temperature of the boiling water inside the kettle, then pour it and measure what you've poured. It must be that long gooseneck spout that knocks the temp down far enough that tea doesn't yield all the flavor it could. Loved everything about the kettle, but this factor is a dealbreaker for serious tea drinkers.

Only when it is finished heating. You select the temp you want, and when it beeps to let you know it's done boiling, it will show the temp of the water. The temp display will stay on until you unplug it. Sometimes it's a degree or two off what you actually selected.

212 is a rolling boil. You do not want that. Try the next two lower settings. I think this gizmo is fun!

There are three levels for the temp (warm, hot, very hot). you just press middle of button and will automatic boil water to be hot. let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks and you have a nice day!

If you input this model name into the web and ask for owners manual you should be able to print out the operating instructions, otherwise all that is required is to plug it in and select a temp setting or use a number between one and ten with one being the lowest and then just adjust from there. We normally use 10 to boil water quick otherwise use it between 3 and 4 and it should do just fine without getting overly hot.

you cab leave it at a preset setting (warm) and it will take about 15 minutes to get there. Or you can turn it on high and in about 1-2 minutes it is hot and you will need to turn the settings down or it will start to boil the water.

Hi Adrienne. I'm not entirely sure what you're asking. When you first plug it in (and put water in it) you'll see that the temperature indicator light for 185 degrees lights up. If you press the "reboil/temp. Set" button, you'll see that you can select other temps that way. Keep pressing until it lands on the 208.4 F temp. It'll start boiling right away. It doesn't keep the water at 212 F (the boiling point) but at 209.4, the perfect temp for black tea. You can press that button again to get it to boil if you want (like for hot cereal or something that calls for boiling water). Does that answer your question?

Not much. I measured it with a digital thermometer. Lowest setting was 175F, 1/4 way was 182, and the the middle setting actually boiled the water. So from middle on up is useless. It's hard to find a budget kettle with good temperature control. If anybody has better results, I'd like to know and I'll send mine back for a replacement.

You can set the temperature from anywhere up to 212 degrees. However, since this kettle is expensive and it started leaking after a couple of years, I don't recommend buying it.

I boiled water below the minimum before, which is about a cup. Nothing was wrong, just boiled faster. Plus it shuts off after its done boiling.

This is a great product! You can set it to hold your desired temperature for about an hour I believe, and then it'll shut off.

You can leave it at 175. Some tea should be steeped at that temperature anyway. But if you want it to be boiling (like if you're making cup of noodles) you need to reboil.

It is factory pre-set to a certain temperature. How you would normally do it is to turn on the hot water only, check temp and slowly open cold water till you reach the temp you want. If you open cold water to fast and to much, the unit will not shut off but the water will become cold instead of warm. If you turn on cold water first and then hot water, it takes to long to get warm.

once it boils it clicks into keep warm mode. if you forget to turn it off, it turns itself off when water runs low. hope this helps.

I'm not sure of the exact temperature rang. The hottest setting boils the water. I drink a lot of green tea so I keep mine set at the lowest. I love mine and I purchased one for my mother who loves her too.

No. When the water boils the unit shuts off. If the water isn't used right away it will cool off.

It does not have temperature settings, just to boil. It works great though, never have any problems with mine!
