Do you have a tea kettle on or a coffee pot right now?

  • I have both, but I don't use the kettle very often.  It's all about the coffee.  If I drink tea, it's usually later in the afternoon, and I just nuke my water or use the K-Cup side of the coffee maker to heat the water up.

    Once I get the coffee in me, there is no going back to the tea.

    Thanks!!!!

    No. The coffee pot shuts itself off.

    Wow.  How modern.  Did you save up for years for that device?

    My wife bought it. They're all the same to me.

  • We do not.  My husband and is only one who drinks coffee or tea and he makes his hot water in the microwave.

  • No, but just moments ago I went in the kitchen and turned on the oven (so I thought -__-) to supplement my heating system and sat back down to drink coffee.  A couple minutes later the whole house is smoked up because it turns out I turned on a burner instead (yes, it had a pan of grease from last night on it -__-).

    BE VERY CAREFUL.  I burned down my house with an unattended candle.  Grease is worse.

  • What's worse is my "heating system" consists of space heaters and over the last few days 4 of them have shorted out, one burned the cord completely off.  I have to freeze at night so as to not burn up in this old shack.

    Edit:  Sorry about your house.  It would rip me to pieces if I lost everything at once.  I keep my important box/papers in the trunk of the car. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at January 29, 2019 9:51 AM MST

    Sure I do. One filled with water and the other filled with canola oil.

    Make sure that oil is fresh.  Lots of people leave oil for too long and it gets rancid.

    No, it is off right now. I cut back to 10oz of decaffinated coffee a day, to see if it would cut back on my "nervous shakes." This post was edited by Art Lover at January 29, 2019 10:54 AM MST

  • I have an Oxo electric tea kettle. I use it almost every day, though it is not on at the moment.  This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at January 29, 2019 1:47 PM MST
