Interval Boiling
For an energy-saving way to boil water, it is advisable to choose the interval boiling setting. Here
the thermostat regulates the supply of power as required. The device switches off the heating
element once the water has boiled and switches it back on again as soon as the temperature of
the water drops.
For this purpose, boil the water once (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Boiling Water”). As soon as
it boils, turn the control dial (
6
) down so that the heating control lamp
(
11
) goes out.
As soon as the thermostat switches the heating back on, the heating control lamp
lights up
again.
Switch off the device after each use by turning the control dial to the
O
position. Pull the
mains plug out of the plug socket and allow the device to cool down before it is cleaned
and / or stored away (see the “Cleaning and Care” chapter).
Tips for Making Tea
Not all tea is the same. In very literal terms, tea is just an aqueous infusion of the tea plant Camellia
sinensis. This may be black or green tea. A distinction should be made from tea-like products, the
so-called herbal and fruit teas.
This also means that not all tea-making can be the same. Depending on the variety, teas are infused
with water at a different temperature in order to bring out the valuable ingredients and the
fl
avour
of the particular variety on the one hand and also preserve them on the other hand. For this
reason, the different varieties also have infusion times of different lengths.
Below we have summarised a few of the most important basics for making tea. But you should
also always note the preparation details provided on the packaging.
Black Tea
Proceed as follows to make black tea:
1. Pour water into the water reservoir (
5
) (see the “Operation” chapter – “Filling the Water
Reservoir”).
2. Fill the tea strainer (
1
) in the teapot (
2
) with tea leaves (approx. one teaspoon per cup) or tea
bags (approx. 1 tea bag for 1 – 2 cups).
The more tea leaves or tea bags and the less water are poured into the teapot, the stronger
the tea concentrate will be. Tip: It is better to add slightly more tea so that you really do get
a concentrate (connoisseurs enjoy an infusion with approx. 3 g for 200 ml of water).
3. Place on and close the lid (
15
).(see the “Operation” chapter – “Removing / Attaching the Lid”).
4. Place the teapot on the lid. This will preheat the teapot while the water is boiling.
5. Turn the control dial (
6
) to the highest temperature (
) to switch on the device and start
boiling the water. The heating control lamp
(
11
) lights up.
6. As soon as the water boils, turn the control dial down so that the heating control lamp
goes out (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Interval Boiling”).
7. Take the teapot off the water reservoir.
