I just started using a French press because I was sick of making 4 cups just for myself in the drip machine. Been meaning to get an electric kettle.

Although i like things that are simple and just work, dont fix it if it aint broken, and hate over-engineered technology... It still is funny to me that if we want to heat things up, we do it by running current through a piece of metal. Isnt there a more efficient way? I guess not or we would be using it.
Induction stoves and microwaves are improvements for certain scenarios.

A lot of people probably use the hot water tap on water dispensers now.

I rarely use all four elements on my stove at the same time so 99% of the time the kettle is sitting on an unused element instead of taking up counter space like an electric kettle would.
It you put the electric kettle on your stove it doesn't take up counter space.
If I turn on the wrong burner?
Right now, that just heats up a kettle that's designed to be heated up by an element underneath it.
If I have an electric kettle on that burner? I got a melted kettle and possibly a fire.
Important safety tip: One of the most common causes of fire in the home is people putting stuff on the stove that isn't meant to be there.
Doesn't an empty coffee maker do the same thing? That's what I thought, Merica is number 1 baybee!!
