Yeah I saw that comment elsewhere. I have to assume kettle/stove material/design/etc have some impact as well. Honestly, I trust TC so I’ll defer to them, I need to watch the video.

edit: yeah his testing is in-line with my experience, electric kettles are just faster.

Oh god Vietnamese coffee is so fucking good, it’s like crack I swear.

Thai iced tea is absolutely incredible and makes use of it as well, highly recommend.

edit: I actually just had Hong Kong milk tea just last week, it was great!

I just start the kettle first, by the time I’ve got my mug and tea all gathered up the water is ready.

I loved sun tea growing up, sit your jug out there early when the day is really warming up and by the afternoon you could have a nice icy glass of sweet tea.

Supposedly it’s a bit dangerous because the water doesn’t get hot enough to kill any bacteria that would be on the bags or something. “Refrigerator Tea” is apparently a thing now but I haven’t given it a shot, maybe I will soon, Cold brew coffee is ok, maybe coldbrew tea is great also.

Tea, instant ramen, oatmeal, eggs, electric kettles are awesome and really convenient.

Even with underpowered 110v an electric kettle still boils water faster than a stovetop IME. Still only a few minutes difference but it’s a difference.

Or just put a bullet in them and redistribute their wealth.

The strangest part of the “turning the frogs gay” meme is it’s actually a thing he just said it in the stupidest way possible.
