The new Electric Kettle from Saeco performs above and beyond existing water kettles on the market today. Not only does it rapidly boil 50 ounces of water conventionally, it can heat water up to exact, preset temperatures and hold that temperature for up to two hours. The kettle can also perform a combination of these two functions, bringing water up to a rolling boil, and then keeping it warm at a lower temperature for two hours. The advanced digital control panel displays the exact temperature of the water at all times. The kettle also features the new Color Changing Technology, a multi-color backlight within the carafe. As the temperature of the water increases, the carafe changes from an elegant blue shade to a bright red, so the end user always knows what temperature the water is, even at a quick glance.

Other advantages of the Electric Kettle include:

• Push Buttons: Conventional boiling and keep warm functions are accessed through illuminated push buttons, located directly on the easy grip plastic handle.

• Power Base: 360° rotational plastic base stores excess power cord internally. The kettle lifts completely off of the base for cord-free pouring, which is perfect for left-handed or right-handed use. • 50 oz. Water Carafe: Large plastic and stainless steel carafe holds 50 ounces of water. The removable water filter screen keeps water fresh and clean at all times. Lid release switch included for added safety. The Electric Kettle from Saeco can be used to brew any of your favorite hot teas or hot beverages perfectly, or heat water for soups other hot foods. A customized recipe card is included with the kettle to provide optimal brew settings for a variety of hot teas, including herbal tea, green tea and oolong tea. The Electric Kettle combines Saeco’s passion with all aspects of the coffee brewing process to delivering fresh, hot water quickly with innovation and style. The Electric Kettle will be available in September and has an MSRP of $79.
