Mate, you've obviously put a lot of work into your presentation skills. Not that they were poor previously. But in this video, your confidence and self-conviction as well as the quality of information and mode of its delivery (i.e. your writing) were a pleasure to be an audience to. Well done for putting the work in and getting the reward.
there are lots of kettles that can maintain temp after replacing kettle after first pour. Without this feature and comments on inaccuracy of temp that's a deal breaker.
Like Hoffman says for the Felicita in his comparo video and users below who actually have it, this kettle cheats by racing to the desired temperature at the expense of overshooting it. Mine overshot from 90 to 100 degrees for 400 mL. Was sent second base which had a 2nd lower power element kick in towards the end (not sure if improved model or my first one was broken) but still 6 degrees overshoot = 2.5 minutes extra wait to get back to 90. Company's solutions were to a) get a smaller kettle, b) boil more water to reduce the overshoot (meaning longer wait to boil water), or c) mix in cold water at end.
One thing I hate about the Fellow is the restriction, love the option to not have the restriction on this kettle. Also I hate the holes in the lid of the Fellow. I may need to get one of these.
Nice to see that they have engineered it in such a way as to remove some annoyances from the Stagg. Even though they've obviously taken design cues from the Stagg and then changed enough to avoid any IP infringement issues I have to say that the Stagg is still significantly more beautiful to me. Still, the boost in useability (perhaps with some downside tradeoffs) and plus a lower price might be enough to leave me to sacrifice aesthetics as the difference is at least relatively small (as long as you don't get any of the stripy wood options).
I've been very disappointed with how inaccurate the temperature settings are on this kettle. It heats up to the desired temperature fast and then cuts the element, but it's a hunk of hot metal and doesn't stop heating for another few degrees. Setting to 90 ends me up on something around 95 usually. Other than this is it a fantastic kettle, but I couldn't really recommend it unless you only really want boiling water
Are the handles (main handle and those of the lid) easily removable? Because I hate plastic and if I buy this kettle I’d like to make a wooden copy. Thank you! Nice video
Yes. - if you indeed intended to remove the handles - and not use them again - then there is a plug at the back of the handle to access the hidden screw holding the handle on the kettle. To remove this handle - I'd say you do so at your own risk - it doesn't look quite as easy as the Fellows.
Nice video. Certainly given me something to think about. I was looking at the fellow. Maybe I could put the difference saved towards a better hand grinder.
I ordered this kettle from Alternative Brewing and it wasn't good at all. Not only it had a design fault (or 2) but it was very hard to use. I wouldn't recommend it at all. I don't know how this guy can?
I’m looking for a easy to use kettle, I tried the Fellow stagg pro, it’s too complicated and not straight fwd for me especially for my wife.. what would be a better choice please?
That's a good question - I've not seen any studies pointing to that particular assumption but it should be easy on the eyes - I was hoping to make a space that's practical to me daily for brewing - but with the amount of brew gear I have - and space available in the foreground - there's no way you would want to see all that jumbled up - plus the furniture that fit in space had to be certain dimensions 😂

Wow, follow me
What a wonderfully original design.

This review was so helpful!! Thanks so much.
You are so welcome!
Love it Josh great video and great product and best it has that flow control too 👍👍
Totally agree!
Great video! Really cool to see you thinking all this through as you went.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Yeah it does this. And they advertise this as having a PID...
I wanted to buy it but unfortunately the shipping cost is half the price of the kettle.
Love the video, great to get real nerdy with it
Glad you enjoyed it!

I take the lid off of the kettle and just pour from the top when I need to fill a teapot
Nice! 👍
I have the previous version of the Brewista Artisan, which I like a lot. I think Brewista stuff gets overlooked a little. Their Tornado brewer rules.
The Tornado Brewer - I haven't used this yet - I should do a brew guid up for it 👌
Nice video. Certainly given me something to think about. I was looking at the fellow. Maybe I could put the difference saved towards a better hand grinder.
I'm in love with my K-Plus grinder at the moment. It's so fast and the grind quality is stellar
Glad it was helpful!
Able to ship to Singapore ?
Yes, of course

I have two, and use them regularly. Sorry to hear you have had a bad experience with them!

100%
do you have US compatible version of it?
No, apologies - not at this stage
Is there a reseller for Europe? I only find one in the UK.
we ship to E.U regularly 👌
@@AlternativeBrewing do I need a converter for the plug?
Do you have a UK retailer?
we do not sorry, no
Able to ship to Russia?
No, sorry
Good ❤
Thanks ✌
Is the Hoffman background meant to make viewers more comfortable?

I was wondering why I was so happy watching this 😂
Obviously copying Fellow's design and making it even uglier.
