So use a proper electric kettle. That will save your gas bill.



Bull****. It would cost me twice as much to boil my water with your
kettle as it would with my gas and stove-top 2 quart saucepan.


I'd love to see your proof. A 'two quart' saucepan will have *vast* heat
losses. A decent electric kettle can cope with just one cupful of water if
that's all that's needed.

Also, if your kettles have exposed coils in them, folks won't likely be
putting their pasta into them.


Did you put soap in the kettle as a kid too?
