BEFORE FIRST USE

Water Test

Perform the Water Test before using your kettle to make sure it’s working properly. Do not drink the water that is boiled during this test.

1. Remove au packaging from your kettle and its accessories.
2. Completely unravel the power cable and place the power base on a flat, level, stable surface.
3. Fill the kettle with water to the “MAX” line [Figure 1.01, then put the lid on the kettle. Press firmly to make sure the lid fits securely.
4. Press (“ON / OFF”) Then, press 212°F (“BOIL BLACK”)
5. The kettle will automatically tum off once it has finished boiling the water. Allow it to cool, then pour out the water. Rinse thoroughly 2-3 times with cold water.

USING YOUR KETTLE

Boiling Water

Note:

• Use filtered water for perfect pour-over brewing.
• If you start the kettle without water in it, the kettle will tum off and controls will be disabled. See Boil-Dry Protection (page 11)

1. Add at least ½ cup / 118 mL of filtered water to the kettle. Do not fill above the “MAX” line. Wipe any water from the outside of the kettle and the base.

2. Put the lid on the kettle and make sure it fits securely. Place the kettle on the power base.

3. Plug in the cord. The button lights will blink, and the base will beep once.

4. Press (“ON/ OFF”). The button will light up.
   Note : The kettle will tum off after 1 minute of inactivity.

5. Press a preset temperature button. The button will light up, and the kettle will start heating up the water.
   Note:
   You can only select 1 preset at a time.
   If you take the kettle off the base while heating, all buttons will tum off, and the kettle will pause heating. If you put the kettle back within 60 seconds, it will resume heating. After 60 seconds, the kettle will tum off.

6. Optionally, press (“HOLD TEMP”) any time before the kettle is finished heating. This will tum on Hold Temperature Mode, which will automatically keep the kettle at the same temperature for 60 minutes after heating is finished. The button will stay lit during that time. Note: If you take the kettle off the base during Hold Temperature Mode, the  (“HOLD TEMP”) button will blink. After 60 seconds, the kettle will tum off.

7. When the water is at the preset temperature, the kettle will beep 3 times and stop heating.

Making Pour-Over Coffee

You’ll need a pour-over coffee maker, such as Cosori’s Original 8-Cup Pour- Over Coffee Maker.

• Place the coffee maker filter into the decanter.
• Add ground coffee to the filter according to your preference.
• Heat water using the gooseneck kettle.
• Use the gooseneck kettle to gently pour water over the coffee grounds using a slow spiral motion. Pour just enough water to saturate the grounds.
  Note:

This spiral motion is to create  “turbulence” in the coffee grounds, allowing the particles in the coffee to separate and release flavor.

The water will cause the grounds to puff up, which is called  “blooming”. Some roasts will bloom more than others.

• Wait 30-45 seconds.
• Use the gooseneck kettle to pour water over the coffee grounds again using a slow spiral motion. If water reaches the top of the filter, stop and let it settle to the halfway point, then begin pouring again until you have the desired amount of coffee.
• When finished, remove the filter and enjoy

High Altitude Users

At higher elevations, water boils at a lower temperature. You may need to use a different preset.

Kettle Sounds

The kettle will alert you by beeping 3 times when the water reaches the preset temperature. The kettle will also beep once when plugged in. To turn kettle sounds off, press and hold  (“HOLD TEMP”) for 8 seconds.

Adjusting Lid Tightness

If you feel the kettle lid fits too loosely or is too hard to take off, you can adjust the tightness of the lid.

1. Take off the lid.
2. Use a tool to adjust the 3 tabs on the kettle lid. [Figure 2.1-22]
3. If you push the tabs in, the lid will fit more loosely, and will be easier to put on and take off.
4. If you pull the tabs out, the lid will fit more tightly, and will not come off as easily.
5. After adjusting the tabs, put the lid back on and take it off again to see if the fit is correct. If not, adjust the tabs again until the lid fits the way you prefer.

Boil-Dry Protection

Your kettle is equipped with boil-dry protection. If there is less than ½ cup / 118 mL of water in the kettle, the heat will automatically shut off. Allow the kettle to cool and add more water before using again.
If all buttons blink and the kettle beeps, then unplug the power cord to reset the kettle before turning on again.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

1. Unplug the kettle and allow it to cool before cleaning.
2. Wipe the kettle and base with a soft, damp cloth. Make sure that the electric socket on the underside of the kettle is kept dry.
3. Dry all parts after every use.
   Note: Never immerse kettle or power base in water.

Descaling the Kettle

You should descale the kettle at least once a week if you use it frequently. Descaling removes any mineral deposits that have built up inside the kettle. Always descale the kettle before and after storing for long periods of time.

1. Unplug the kettle and pour out all water. Make sure the kettle is cool.

2. Squeeze half a lemon into the kettle, or add ½ US cup / 118 mL of distilled vinegar into the kettle.

3. If the kettle has thick scale buildup, scrub the kettle’s inner walls with a non-scratch scrub sponge.
   Note : Do not use steel wool, as this can scratch the kettle.

4. Add 2 US cups/ 473 mL of water. Boil the mixture.

5. Pour out the mixture, then wipe off any remaining scale with a non-abrasive cloth, sponge, or cleaning brush.

6. Repeat as needed.
   Note : For quick descaling, add 3 US tbsp I 44 mL of baking soda to ½ US cup I 118 mL of vinegar into the kettle. Swirl the mixture around until it coats the walls of the kettle, wipe with a non-scratch sponge, and pour the mixture out. This method will only work for a thin layer of scale.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I put loose tea, sugar, and spices right into the boiling water in the kettle? similar to brewing chai?****

No, you can’t, or the device will get damaged or boil over. Not a teapot or a saucepan, but a kettle. Kettles should only be used to heat water. To make your beverage, you pour hot water from the kettle into your teapot or your cup.

Does lifting to pour activate the auto off? Or are you able to maintain the temperature while pouring?****

All buttons will turn off and the kettle’s heating will cease if you remove it from the base while it is still heating. Within 60 seconds, the kettle will start heating up again if you put it back. The “HOLD TEMP” button will blink if you remove the kettle from the base while it is in the Hold Temperature mode. The kettle will shut off after 60 seconds.

Can a manufacturer or someone else explain why there are so many beeper issues?****

The gooseneck kettle has a buzzer feature that lets you know when the water has reached the right temperature. To adjust the beep to your preference, press “Hold Temp” for 5–10 seconds. Please try pressing “Hold Temp” for 5–10 seconds to restart your beep if it has stopped working.

The presets are not variables, so why are they named that?****

For the best tea or coffee brewing, this Cosori Gooseneck Kettle has 5 accurate changeable temperature presets. Please feel free to get in touch with us directly if you have any queries or worries.

How is the temperature of the water measured? Is there a sensor within the kettle that is not made of stainless steel?****

A tiny stainless steel temperature probe that is developed for food use may detect the desired temperature and trigger automatic shut-off.

Hello, Cosori Why don’t you produce high-quality goods? Why can’t you make them live longer than three months for such an expensive kettle?****

We can assist! We want to know more about your experience so we can help you even better. Contact our team whenever it’s convenient for you. The instruction manual that comes with the product can be found inside the box. We anticipate hearing from you!

I observed many brown patches at the kettle’s bottom after only a few uses. They don’t emerge. What exactly is that?****

Scaling from dissolved minerals in the water is what is causing the “brown blotches” on the bottom.

Why are there various presets? Does it matter at all? What makes it unique compared to other electric kettles?****

Well, for each function I utilise, I often use the defaults. There is a setting for coffee and several tea varieties… They probably want the best heat possible for each purpose. It is quite unique compared to other kettles.

The kettle doesn’t turn off on coffee and boil/black until many minutes after it reaches a full boil. This must be abnormal, right?****

If the Hold button is not ON (Not Lit) when the liquid reaches the desired temperature, the device will switch off. The Hold button will remain lighted when it is ON for roughly 60 minutes.

Does the smart kettle remember my decision to silence the beep when the water reaches the desired temperature, or does that setting reset when the kettle is unplugged?****

Yes, it can recall. You must toggle it back on whenever necessary after turning it off. Additionally, the 2-year manufacturer warranty that comes with each of our devices means that you can always contact our support team by utilising the details in the manual.

Although I adore the aesthetic of this kettle, the gooseneck portion seems difficult to clean. What do you use to clean it?****

The kettle requires little to no cleaning because the only thing you put in it is water.

How is the spout fastened to the kettle’s body?****

I think welding is used to join the body to the long spout. To conceal the welded connection, a metal ring is placed over that connection. By the way, excellent job. Then, it appears to have been painted over with a metal-colored paint to make it appear to be one solid piece.

How is the kettle’s handle fastened?****

Due to the way it is made, it is invisible how it is attached. The handle won’t be an issue because the kettle is fairly sturdy.
