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 simply add loose tea, sugar, and spices to the kettle of boiling water? comparable to making chai?****

No, you cannot; otherwise, the appliance would suffer harm or burst. Kettle, not a teapot or a saucepan. The sole purpose of kettles is to heat water. You use a teapot or a cup and hot water from the kettle to make your beverage.

Does lifting the cup to pour turn the automatic off? Or can you keep the temperature steady while pouring?****

If you take the kettle out of the base while it is still heating, all the buttons will switch off, and the heating will stop. If you put the kettle back, it will begin to heat up again after 60 seconds. If you take the kettle out of the base while it’s in the Hold Temperature mode, the “HOLD TEMP” button will blink. After 60 seconds, the kettle will turn off.

Can a manufacturer or other person provide an explanation for the high number of beeper problems?****

When the water at the proper temperature, the gooseneck kettle’s buzzer feature will sound. Press “Hold Temp” for 5–10 seconds to change the beep to your liking. If your beep has stopped working, kindly try pressing “Hold Temp” for 5–10 seconds.

Can a manufacturer or other person provide an explanation for the high number of beeper problems?****

When the water at the proper temperature, the gooseneck kettle’s buzzer feature will sound. Press “Hold Temp” for 5–10 seconds to change the beep to your liking. If your beep has stopped, kindly try pressing “Hold Temp” for 5–10 seconds to reactivate it.

Why are the presets titled that way if they are not variables?****

This Cosori Gooseneck Kettle boasts 5 precise variable temperature presets for the best tea or coffee brewing. Contacting us directly is always welcome if you have any questions or concerns.

How is the water’s temperature determined? Does the kettle contain a sensor comprised of materials other than stainless steel?****

The desired temperature may be detected and the automated shut-off triggered using a compact stainless steel temperature probe designed for food usage.

Good day, Cosori Why don’t you create products of superior quality? For such a pricey kettle, why can’t you make them survive longer than three months?****

We can help! To further assist you, we would like to learn more about your experience. When it suits you, get in touch with our team. It is possible to find the product’s instruction booklet within the package. We look forward to hearing from you!

After only a few usage, I noticed lots of brown areas at the bottom of the kettle. They do not appear. What is that exactly?****

The “brown spots” on the bottom are caused by scaling from dissolved minerals in the water.

Why do different presets exist? Does it even matter? What distinguishes it from other electric kettles?****

Well, I frequently utilise the defaults for each function that I use. There is a place for coffee and a variety of teas… For each reason, they probably want the best heat available. When compared to other kettles, it is rather distinctive.

After coming to a full boil, the kettle doesn’t switch off on coffee and boil/black for several minutes. Surely this is abnormal?****

When the liquid reaches the specified temperature, the device will turn off if the Hold button is not ON (Not Lit). When turned ON, the Hold button will glow for around 60 minutes.

When the water reaches the correct temperature, does the smart kettle remember my choice to turn off the beep, or does that setting start over when the kettle is unplugged?****

Yes, it has memory. When necessary, toggle it back on after switching it off. Additionally, you can always get in touch with our support team by using the information in the manual thanks to the 2-year manufacturer warranty that is included with each of our products.

Although I adore the aesthetics of this kettle, I’m not sure how easy it would be to clean the gooseneck. What cleaning solution do you use?****

Since you merely put water in the kettle, cleaning is not at all necessary.

How is the spout attached to the body of the kettle?****

I believe the lengthy spout is connected to the body using welding. A metal ring is placed over the welded connection to cover it up. By the way, great work. Then, it looks as though a metal-colored paint has been applied over it to make it look like it is one continuous piece.

How is the handle of the kettle secured?****

Its construction renders its attachment unnoticeable. The kettle is reasonably strong, so the handle won’t be a problem.
