What should you look for when buying a kettle?

There are several things to consider when buying a kettle. To make your search easier, we have compiled the following list of points to consider when buying a kettle.

• ContentsDecide for yourself what you are going to use the kettle for. Will you often drink tea with large groups of people or will you often drink alone? Take this into account when determining the contents.
• Lime filter: If a kettle has an open heating element, limescale will build up over time. Obviously you don't want this in your hot drinks. If you choose a variant with an open heating element, it is therefore good to see if it also has a limescale filter.
• Power: The higher the power, the faster and more durable the kettle is.
• Temperature setting: Are you a tea lover? Then a kettle with temperature control is recommended. Some teas are best drunk at a certain temperature. The temperature control allows you to drink your cup of tea with an optimal taste experience.
• Keep warm function: This keeps the water at temperature, so you can drink a cup of tea later.
• Open or closed heating element: With a closed heating element, you don't have to worry about scale formation. On the other hand, it takes longer to heat up the water with a closed heating element.
• Water level indicator: Do you want to know exactly how much water is in the kettle? Then choose a variant with a water level indicator.

You can also consider color and design choices, the choice between wireless or wired or a preference for a particular brand.

How long does a kettle last?

The minimum lifespan of an electric kettle is between 2 and 3 years. How long the appliance lasts depends on the quality of the product, but also on how the appliance is maintained. The better you maintain a kettle, the longer it will last. Want to make sure your appliance will last a long time? Then choose a quality brand. In the assortment of Cookinglife you will find only quality brands, such as: Rig Tig, Cuisinart or Hendi.

How to descale a kettle.

Maintaining a kettle is important to get the most out of it. Cleaning and maintaining a kettle is not complicated. Below are the steps to follow for best results!

• Step 1.: Fill the kettle with a mixture of water and lemon juice or vinegar.
• Step 2: let the mixture boil completely.
• Step 3: When you see that the kettle is completely limescale-free, rinse it with water.
• Step 4: your kettle is now limescale-free!

What is an energy efficient kettle?

Sustainability is important and to help you make the most sustainable choice we have compiled the list below. In it you will find two points to consider when choosing a sustainable kettle.

• Power: The more power a kettle has, the faster the water heats up. So choose one with high power (2400 to 3000 watts).
• Closed heating element: In a kettle with an open heating element, the water has to rise above the element before the device can boil the water. Small amounts of boiling is therefore not possible.
