    What tf why does it play a jingle and why does it have temp settings?

    Didn’t know my electric kettle was outdated since it just turns off when it reaches boiling temp.

      Jingle as in a signal tone that’s not a single beep.
      And temp control is very neat to have if you are a serious tea drinker.
      Makes it easy to boil water to 60, 70, 80, 90, 95 or 100 °C. And tea can be picky if it shouldnt be bitter ;)

        Guess I’m not picky enough to notice a difference between the temps my tea is made at (I just shake the bag until it has broadly the right colour), although I don’t have much taste left since covid anyways.

        But will have a look for one with multiple temp settings for other purposes, if this one ever kicks the bucket.

          bagged tea could care less. if you steep it 1min it will more or less taste similar to doing it the recommended time.
          Loose leaf tea will notice it. It will either be too light, too bitter or just right and anything inbetween ;)

            I think that green tea bags are an exception, those’d be ruined immediately by boiling temps.
