Thanks Jim. Definitely giving this a try.

[@HelpatHomeJim]

I don't think I mentioned this, but I first tried this while staying several days in a hotel and couldn't do without my iced tea. Thanks for watching.

[@Broomba51]

Fancy!! Ice tea that would make grand-ma proud!! Thats a nifty little electric kettle! Im intrigued!!! :)

[@HelpatHomeJim]

You could use it for instant coffee, tea or cocoa, though I prefer homemade cocoa.

I sure do love me some tea, sweet of course. We have one of those electric kettles. Use it all the time. Its almost as good as an air fryer. Lol. Good to see ya again Jim. Stay safe my friend.

[@HelpatHomeJim]

Glad to see you too, Matt. They are awfully handy at that! I hope all is well on your "Green Acres." Hello to the Mrs. and have a great week, buddy.

Thanks for watching.

First of all Happy New Year Jim and family! Wow that pot heated up pretty darn quick! You could use that pot also to pour into a pot to to faster heat up water for spaghetti and other pastas as well as soups ect. As for me I prefer to take a big jar fill it with water, put my tea bags in then let the sun heat the water and make my tea.

[@masonkeyser4653]

I hit the wrong button but to finish up my comment… I try to make sun tea when the sun is out. Granted it takes a lot longer but I think if ya need to make it fast the heated pot you have would do the trick. Great review of the pot and your easy way to make tea! Thanks for sharing, great job, have a great week, stay safe and God bless.

@@masonkeyser4653 Those are all great ideas, Mason. Thanks for watching and you have a great week too!

Happy New Year, Jim, Lori, Colby and Family. We love our electric kettle for boiling hot water too. We mainly for hot tea and for making iced tea as you did. They are so fast an easy! Our is about the same size 1.75 liters. One handy little gadget for sure! Thank you for your receipt I do the same for ice tea steep the bags twice as long👍👍 but no sugar🤪🤪 I use stevia instead or Splenda. Happy first production for 2022🙏🙏

[@HelpatHomeJim]

Good Morning, Steve. They are incredibly handy and I never even knew they existed. I hope you and Linda have a blessed 2022.

[@lindaeubanks-mccormick2090]

Jim I cannot have sugar. Will artificial sugar work in tea made like this?

[@HelpatHomeJim]

Absolutely! My wife is diabetic and uses Splenda in tea.

I left a question on your sweet tea video. You didn’t have electric kettle with that video. I now have the Ovente kettle. Maximum water qty is 1.5 liters. I’ve been only using 1 liter line. I only have a 2 qt pitcher. I use 2 family Luzianne tea bags with 1 liter water. Steeped for 3 mins and then add 1 liter cold water. I suppose I could add cold water to top of pitcher. What would you recommend? I’m loving the convenience of the electric kettle. Does your kettle have a larger water capacity?

[@HelpatHomeJim]

I think I answered you, but in case I'm mistaken, my kettle has a 1.5 liter capacity, but you can do one of two things. First option is to add more water to the kettle. Mine will hold about 7 cups (which is above the 1.5 liter line) and then proceed with adding your tea bags after it boils. Option two, just fill to the 1.5 liter line, add your tea bags after it boils and even though it will be a little stronger, you will need to add extra water to fill up your two quart pitcher, and that will even it all out. Good luck!

What kettle is this brand and how long have I been using it

[@HelpatHomeJim]

I've been using this kettle for about 3 years. Just about any brand will do. I don't know the brand, I just got it at big box store.

[@zachariahsrivilay8854]

Which electric kettle do you prefer? I want to buy one

[@HelpatHomeJim]

I've only used this one, but I definitely recommend a glass one over a stainless steel so you can see inside.

[@zachariahsrivilay8854]

@@HelpatHomeJim what are your opinions on cold brew style ice tea?

[@HelpatHomeJim]

Cold brew, if that's the one that brews over a pitcher of ice, I don't think it has as strong and good a flavor as letting the tea steep tradionally.

[@zachariahsrivilay8854]

@@HelpatHomeJim yeah I just hate waiting for the water to cool back down after I brewed it in boiling water lol!

[@HelpatHomeJim]

@@zachariahsrivilay8854 That's when you pour it over ice in a glass.

[@Luciffrit]

Electric Kettles are really not a thing in the states are they? People told me but, it's pretty wild to think about. Nearly every household here in Aus has a kettle.

[@HelpatHomeJim]

We do have electric kettles in the US, but they have not been as popular here. They are very nice to have though.

[@melindabiddy7165]

I usually buy tea in bottles but they have become so expensive. Looking for cheaper ways.
