you forgot the lust provoking image

Sometimes I have my big kettle over the fire. Typically I just keep the teapot topped up with loose leaf, adding more as and when needed.

But if I am making a specially good pot then everything with be fresh, cleaned and brewed the proper time with once boiled fresh water in the kettle.

What's a kettle

>>15770725
I guess I am going to have to buy a kettle, then.

Every hour or two you stand up and go to your kettle and then stand there for a bit until its ready. Repeat daily until death

>>15770604
Not yuro, but I usually keep a pitcher full of tea in my fridge during hot weather seasons. The rest of the time I just make a cup when needed.

tea enemas bro, fucking mutts slurping tea through their rat holes

>>15771083
Based and butthole pilled

>>15770604
Bong here, I just nuke a glass of water in the micro.

>>15770604
Nice bait idiot

>>15770604
Sorry i only drink full leaves tea, i only have disdain for those who consum teabags.

>>15770725
It’s what you piss in when you forget to pay your toilet loicense

>>15771352
Do you have teabag in when microwaving the glass or do you add it later?

>>15770604
>Do you constantly keep a large quantity of water hot and ready
Yes, actually.

>>15771474
How much electricity that thing waste

>>15771553
not as much as constantly re-boiling the kettle

>>15771553
its insulated, so little

>>15770604
>how come Grug eat meat that is ouchie to the tonque? Do Grug keep fire going all day?

Kettles literally take 2 fucking minutes to boil cold water. do Americans really?

does tea actually stain your teeth more than coffee?

>>15771638
11 minutes.
4 if you have 220v electric, which America does not.

>>15770617
Talk about projection.

We have the kettle kept on simmer all day and make it boil when we want tea. This is so common that it's excluded on electric bills

> Do you constantly keep a large quantity of water hot and ready for spontaneous tea drinkage?

Russians have developed it into an art form.

Do you know that on all long-distance trains in Russia, in every train car there is a samovar for all passengers to use freely, to make themselves a tea or a ramen or some instant dish whenever they like?

"Europoors". Say people who put glass of water in microwave.

>>15771722
Europoors don't even have garages. Stay salty.

>>15771731
Shows what you know.

>>15771722
I love the engraving, very beautiful

>>15771731
we do have plenty of garages, we just don't have these giant suburbs filled with nuclear-style houses where all the upper middle class people live

>>15771553
>waste
It takes remarkably little energy to maintain water at a temp in an insulated/sealed container.
Every capsule-type coffee machine does the same thing.
So does the water heater in your house.

>>15771474
These seem pretty based but they’re kind of expensive so I haven’t been able to justify buying one yet. I’ve also read that they’ve been known to rust.

>>15770604
>Europe = UK
dumb fucking mutts, you anglos are all the same

>>15771553
Less than these things, present in every corpo office in the US.

>>15770604
yes, I have a pot of water boiling at all times, in case I want some tea.

kinda the same with my oven. I like baked potatoes, so I have one in the ofen at all times, so it's done if I spontaneously want one...

>>15771664
Lmao, seething yanktard.

>>15771798
What if the water starts burning too much? Wont it leave a bitter taste

>>15771795
If a company made a nicer looking version of this that wasn’t all plastic and cheap looking I’d buy one.

>>15771789
I've never actually seen one rust. Someone came on 4chan one time whining about a rusty pot, but the pictures he posted were of limescale and mineral buildup which he had neglected to clean.

>>15771697
>Russians
>European
Nice one

>>15770617
It goes both ways. Yuropoors do the same thing. For instance there was a thread yesterday about boiling water in the microwave and almost instantly they were seething.

>>15771810
the majority of russia's population is on the european side of russia

>>15771804
Have you ever tried actually looking?
Plenty of people buy nice stainless ones for home use.

>>15771803
pls be bait

>>15771697
Russians dont samovar much anymore

>>15770604
>What's an electric kettle

>>15771656
This is not real, is it? I don't remember anything from school physics. So Americans can't boil water quickly because their voltage is only half of ours?

>>15771803
You just take the burnt pieces out

My 110v kettle boils 2 liters in about 3 minutes from 15C
Practically seconds if I just brew 200 mL

>>15772883
A google search says uk kettles use 13amps. 13@220v = 2860w

The max the typical american outlet can do is 15@120v=1800w

Americans do have 240v outlets but those are special ones meant for stuff like washing machines. We don't have those laying around in the kitchen for tea kettles.

>>15772926
Do you use the electric kettle to boil water for cooking (vs stove)?

>>15771656
Standard voltage in Canada is 120v and everyone has an electric kettle. It never takes more than 4 minutes to boil.

>>15771656
>voltage, not wattage, produces heat
No, anon.
>if you have 220v electric, which America does not.
Correct. America has 240v. Literally every house has dual-phase 120/240v. America’s mom let’s it have *two* voltages.

>>15772935
I use my keurig, which gives me a cup of hot water in like 15 seconds.

>>15772940
You can technically convert any plug to 240v, but (((they)))) tell us not to in an attempt to earn more money for big electric.

>>15773028
>but (((they)))) tell us not to in an attempt to earn more money for big electric.
Huh?
I don’t wire 240 to my 120 outlets because the few 240v items I have already have correct plugs.
I don’t feel like blowing up my electronics.
