FEATURES OF YOUR BREVILLE VARIABLE TEMPERATURE KETTLE™
Hold Temp Function
The Variable Temperature Kettle™ offers a
convenient HOLD TEMP function that can
be used before, during or on completion of
the water heating cycle.
When the water has reached the selected
temperature, the HOLD TEMP function
will hold the selected temperature for
20 minutes.
If the 212° button is selected when using
the HOLD TEMP function, the boiled
water will remain at approximately 200°
Fahrenheit for 20 minutes.
To activate the HOLD TEMP function,
first press the desired water temperature
button from the five options on the control
panel. Then press the HOLD TEMP button,
followed by the START/ CANCEL button to
commence heating the water.
Alternatively, the HOLD TEMP button can
be activated at any time during the heating
cycle and/or within one minute after the
heating cycle has completed.
If the kettle is removed from the power
base during the HOLD TEMP function the
kettle will automatically switch off.
NOTE:
If temperature is changed during the HOLD
TEMP function, the START/CANCEL button
surround will illuminate in red.
Variable Temperature Control
The variable electronic control panel offers
five different Fahrenheit temperatures for
optimal tea and coffee brewing:
175˚, 185˚, 195˚, 200˚, and 212°.
NOTE:
This product is not calibrated for commer-
cial or scientific use. Temperatures may
vary ± 10˚F (5˚C), however still within range
for optimal brewing for each type of tea or
coffee.
Optimal Brewing
Tea varieties are grown and produced
in different environments and require
specific water temperatures to allow their
unique flavor and aroma to develop during
brewing. To bring out the optimal quality
and taste of more delicate tea leaves, a
lower temperature will produce a better
flavored cup of tea. For example, steeping
green, white or oolong teas in boiling water
may scald the tea leaves and result in a
bitter, astringent brew.
Brewing the tea for too long may also
result in a bitter, unpleasant taste, while
brewing for too short a period may leave
the tea bland. For best results always
follow the specific directions on the
tea/coffee packet.
To bring out the optimal taste and
quality of your favorite tea or coffee, we
recommend that you use your Breville
Variable Temperature Kettle™ at the
suggested temperature for your selected
tea or coffee.
