Keep Warm

After about 18 months of deteriorating functionality, our old gooseneck kettle finally died. We bought a new one on a Black Friday sale, and for the most part it’s neither more nor less than fine. It boils water quickly and pours it slowly and precisely. Great! But it has one killer feature: the “keep warm” button. How often in my life have I set water to boil, walked away, and come back ten minutes later only to find it has cooled? Often. But no longer. Bless this feature!
