Whats twink.men and how do I get more?
0 out of 10 no valve involved.
So you are saying it overheats to 100C after 8 min of use and then starts to produce steam?
it takes 8 min for your kettle to reach boil? why
2 min, if you’re in europe
this is a reminder for me to get a kettle
I have that exact one and it’s not great, tbh. Spend a little more on something nicer - the extra might mean the difference between starting every morning angry and not
Yeah, we have, uh, three. Two for when we don’t care just want it boiling, one for tea that has a thermometer and shit. We make hard-boiled and poached eggs in the big one, the little one is for travel or the office.
Hard boiled eggs IN the kettle?! :0
the poached are probably worse i have to clean it afters
The most useful machine in any home. You if don’t have one, BUY one, and your life is going to change forever.
And make sure to get one with different temperature settings, not just boil.
Being able to do 180° exactly instead of just guessing has been a game changer for white tea.
I was about to say that water can’t reach 180°C at normal conditions but then I remembered that Fahrenheit exists…
Yes but what about 180 Kelvin?
Then you’d have a little freezer I think. Isn’t the freezing point of water (at normal atmosphere) approx. 274 K?
What’s that in rankine?
Now I’m having thermodynamics flashbacks. It’s just under 500 rankine I think? Been a few years since I even thought about that unit
Something like that. Stupid unit to even teach/learn about
but then I remembered that Fahrenheit exists…
Bummer, man! 😔
You can superheat water, but probably not that much at home.
I actually looked for one in °C but the only ones I found had big stupid display screens. I just wanted one with 5-6 simple presets without adding unnecessary points of failure.
To be fair, I didn’t look that hard though. I wasn’t willing to spend that much time and the place I order my tea from labels all the recommended temps in °F anyway.
It heats up water.
It’s useful, but to say it is a life changing is pretty silly.
Sounds like something someone who hasn’t had a life changing water boiling event in their life would say.
The British would like a word…
Ireland actually drinks even more tea than capita than us, though that might be entirely due to Mrs Doyle.
Not lifechanging because they’re all born with one.
Legends say they have one in the womb with them, along with a couple boxes of Yorkshire Tea.
Yeah, it was hyperbole, but when I bought one, I felt a huge difference when cooking or making tea/coffee.
Want to cook some rice? Just put water in the electric kettle, prepare the rice and put it in the rice cooker, boom, put the already heated water in the rice cooker. It’s a lot faster than putting a kettle on a stove, here’s 220v, but it is different state to state.
For tea? Just put some water in the electric kettle and hear the click sound.
It changed my life, and changed a lot of peoples lives, because when I talk to my coworkers, all of them have the same opinion. It’s just a time saver, but damn, an amazing time saver.
I have mine set on a timer, fill it up with water before I go to bed, and when I wake up I can immediately make a hot broth breakfast. It’s reduced my morning routine by 8 whole minutes! Life will never be the same.
Oh, reduced the time by 8 minutes.
I was wondering what sort of kettle you were using that was almost as slow as a stove. Mine takes under two minutes for 2 cups (0.5L), so it checks out.
Happy brewing!
Sounds like 230V speeds?
Aye, as God intended.
I would make the same argument for the air fryer, rice cooker and pressure cooker/insta pot. I use each one at least once a week for so many things. Like, I just came across a vegetarian burrito recipe that I meal prep with the insta and rice cooker, and when I defrost in the microwave and then reheat in the air fryer 👩🍳💋
Is the rice cooker that much better than the pressure cooker? Mine has a rice button, makes perfect rice every time
I think so. Even though the product is basically the same, the rice cooker insert is much easier to clean up and I can run them both at the same time when cooking. Having hot food and rice (without having to cook it myself) stretches meals and doesn’t take tons of extra effort
I have a airfryer/ dual oven counter top that ibuse pretty much for every meal, I always just toss some veggies like potatoes, carrots, squash, broccoli, etc on the top oven and some protein in the bottom oven and it has a mode so they finish at the same time.
For rice i just use the kettle to heat up the water while I rinse out my rice in a strainer, then pour the water in a pot and toss in the rice, once the water boils I turn it down to low, put the lid on, and set a timer for 18 minutes.
We had a insta pot before and used it regularly then one day it just starts smoking and died, luckily I happened to be next to it washing dishes when it happened so I was able to pull the plug on it quick
For 120v power grid systems these would boil water twice as slow. But still, the beat and most efficient way to do it.
Still something like half the time of a gas stove and a quarter that of a coil
That’s a steam dock. Stupid
Edit: accuracy
Steam machine deck
Just make sure the steam d*ck is inserted into the right port.
why are we putting ducks in ports
ships will run them over
Yeah, a steam deck would be, idk, pankakes?
So what’s the “frame” about then exactly?
So where’s steam controller
So what’s this “Steam Link” then
Nintendo’ll sue you if you try that.
The cord of couse.
it’s the litle button at the top
Nice.
Bought it but having trouble figuring out how to use it to play games anyone able to help me?
we have steam machine/deck at home
I have the same exact kettle.
Whats the steam vr
the glasses that fog up with steam
vapor reality
Exactlly
What a waste of power! You could at least be mining bitcoin with it. Plus you can always microwave your tea instead.
Finally, one that I can afford
Steampunk frame ?
Idk what it is with these modern apes but they sure love boiling water
mrrp? :3
Ook 🦧🍵🫖🇬🇧
