Chlorine-killing thermopots on trial

The thermo kettles came to us from Asia at the end of the 20th century and firmly lodged in the American market. We can’t say that they have seriously superseded kettles, but it was the existence of thermophotos, in our opinion, that led to the appearance of kettles with the ability to regulate the temperature.

The thermopot and the kettle: what’s the difference?

So, what is the difference between a thermopot and a kettle with the same function?

First of all, the volume: thermophotos boil on average 3-3,5 liters of water, while the largest teapots boil 2 liters of water. The smallest thermostatic kettles e.g. 2.2 liters from Toshiba are larger than the largest teapots.

Secondly, power: the thermopot almost always has less than 1 kW, while kettles struggle for higher performance. Respectively, kettles boil water quickly, but thermopots boil it slowly. On average, a thermopot takes over 15 minutes to boil 3 liters of water. about 5 minutes per liter . Teapots boil an average of 1 liter of water for 3 minutes.

Slow boiling is due to the fact that the thermopot thus frees the water from the volatile. organochlorine, i.e. gets cleaner.

Third, the way to pour water into the cups.

The kettle must be held in your hand, lifted and tilted. The thermopot stands still, you just need to choose one of three ways to pour water:

– Press the appropriate button or sensor by hand electric pump

– Press the cup on the special ledge

– Pressing the button turns on the pump hand pump – this method is not connected with electricity. It can be used even when the thermopot is unplugged.

Fourthly, it was the thermopots were implemented the ability to maintain a predetermined water temperature for as long as the thermopot is plugged in.

The idea is this: 3 liters of water are boiled in the morning and then you always have boiling water at your fingertips throughout the day. Minimal power is used e.g. 51W Panasonic thermostats .

There is even a button for boiling again we will not speculate now about the usefulness of this action – in this case the boiling water is ready in a couple of minutes, because the water is already hot.

Fifthly, the thermopot keeps water warm for up to 4 hours after disconnecting from the mains. The water in teapots cools down much faster.

What can thermopots do?

The Toshiba PLK-25VETR with light sensor automatically switches to economy mode water temperature 60 ⁰C if it gets dark in the room. In the morning, it automatically turns on the mode you selected earlier.

Panasonic NC-PF30 PV allows you to choose one of four temperature modes: 60 ° C – for baby food, 80 ° C – for brewing Japanese tea, 90 ° C – for brewing green tea, 98 ° C – for coffee, tea, noodles.

The thermopot also has a timer. It remembers your daily routine and automatically controls heat during periods when the appliance is not normally in use, reducing your energy costs.

Zojirushi CD-WBQ40CT has a special slow cooker mode. When you turn it on, water pours out in a thin stream, which helps brew coffee better.

In addition, this thermopot provides music for some operations: melodies sound when the timer is turned on and when the water boils. Can be unplugged or swapped if desired.
