    Déjà Brew
    I didn’t drink from this cup before
    Leaving it to cool
    And I know it keeps happening
    Calling you, caffeine is a mystery
    Falling back asleep
    It’s so hard when I try to wake up
    Whooaaahh

          Historically kettles never really caught on because we only have 110v power, so our kettles are bogus compared to nearly everywhere else in the world.

            That demonstrates a fundamental ignorance of how electricity works.

            Voltage is only half the power equation. The other half is current. Power = voltage x current

            So if a kettle on 110V can draw twice the current, it will have exactly the same amount of power and will heat the water in exactly the same amount of time as a kettle on 220V that draws half the current.

              Bro, 15a is pretty much standard with 20a outlets being the exception. Still, most appliances are only 1500w in the US.

              Yes obviously you could custom make a 4500w kettle that ran on 115v but nobody sells one.

              Your comment demonstrates a fundamental ignorance… What? Who talks like that. Stupid pedantic fool.

    People in this thread are acting like microwaving coffee turns it into vinegar.

    Coffee tastes absolutely fine reheated in the microwave.

      Yup, can confirm. Sometimes I forget to finish my coffee too. James Hoffman on youtube did some testing and he agrees that microwave is perfectly fine and might even be the best method to reheat coffee
