What's your preferred way to prepare water?
Sometimes I'll use my keurig when I want to make tea, but I always get that lingering taste of old coffee residue.
I generally find microwave most convenient, but don't really like what it does for the texture. The flavor of stovetop is best I feel, but I worry about the unhealthiness of the added cooking oil. Not sure if buying an electric kettle would be worth the counter/cabinet space loss.

you will eventually use an electric kettle for everything if you get one. not sure why americans haven't already normalised this tool but whatever. other things impart weird tastes into the water and aren't as quick and effective imo. the microwave esp I will never understand for boiling water in

I've got a 3k watt water boiler like the one on the bottom left. There's no reason to ever use anything else.

Kettle, because I don't live in a 3rd world country with 110 volts current

I prefer a stovetop kettle. It doesn’t take up counter space, and there’s something classic about the whistling sound

What does your electric current have to do with anything when you have an electric stove?

i live in bongland where we have superior 230V electricity making kettles viable, but my kitchen is tiny and i only ever boil one cup of water at a time for tea so to save counterspace or either boiling double the water i need or burning out the heating element in a kettle, i use the microwave for tea. i use the stove for cooking since while the water is coming to a boil i can prep ingredients

find a flaw
