Using an electric kettle to boil water, 9 out of 10 households make this mistake

3. Turn on the kettle first and then add water
When using an electric kettle, some people have the habit of turning on the kettle first and then using a cup or other container to scoop water into the electric kettle. This will damage the kettle, because if there is no water in the electric kettle, the kettle will be in a dry boiling state.

When using an electric kettle to boil water, we should first pour water into the kettle, then place the kettle on the kettle base, plug it in, and turn on the switch.

When placing the electric kettle on the base, you must also observe whether there are any water stains on the base. If there is water on it, wipe it dry before placing the kettle on, otherwise a short circuit may occur. After each use, the kettle should be unplugged.

4. Pour out all the water after boiling water
what’s this brown shite at the bottom of my electric kettle? harmful? how to clean? : r/tea

After boiling water, we need to pour it into a water bottle or thermos to use for making tea or something later. But when pouring water, we should not pour out all the water in the kettle. It is better to leave some water inside.
