I don't even drink tea, and I have an electric kettle. In case any guests want tea. It's the "done thing", as they say.

- skrause 13y agoI have an electrict kettle and not once though of it as a "tea making device". There are dozens of reasons I might need boiling water and it's most often used for making coffee. Another good use is dual-core boiling. When I need boiling water for cooking, I put some water in a pot and turn on the stove. But I also put water in my 2 kW electric kettle and will have boilng water within a few minutes.
- __chrismc 13y agoGood point. I've done this in the past (i.e. back when I was at university) - speed up cooking ramen noodles (or "super noodles") by pouring a boiled kettle into the hot pan. But these days my kettle is almost solely used as a stand-by "tea making device" :)
