I have this beast: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B001EHF3OG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It is very, very fast. I was in mainland Europe over summer and the house I was in only had a 1.8kW kettle, it felt so damn slow.

Do you really have 3100 watt kettles? I think that would burn your house down too.

edit: evidently you do. That seems excessive, but I guess the Brits don't BS about their tea.

edit2: For what it's worth, US sockets can be as high as 20A if wired with proper #12, and will always be a minimum of 15. So that is lower, I suppose. Still, sounds dangerous across the pond.

"I assure you that I have no knowledge of such a thing" said the expat as he poured water from his 3KW kettle into a teacup. . .

I didn't know microwaving mugs of water was a thing until I saw a friend do it when I was maybe 17. It's just...barbaric. Or at least it results in an inferior cup of tea.

How to Make Proper Tea

  1. Fill kettle with water, begin boil. Both electric and stove-top kettles are acceptable.
  2. Place tea bag in mug. Preferably Barry's Gold Blend, because it is sweet ambrosia from the nipples of God.
  3. Pour now-boiling water over tea bag. Allow it to steep for about two minutes, none of this wringing out the tea bag in an attempt to squeeze every possible drop out of it. It results in a bitter tea. Just sit on your hands for two minutes and wait.
  4. Add milk and sugar. (It is news to me that apparently most Americans don't do this. My parents are Irish, so I was obviously taught superior tea-making skills. Milk + sugar is the best way.)
  5. Enjoy delicious beverage.

Not even UK master race can get quite that much energy from domestic mains power, either. Though I suppose if you can somehow recover a significant part of that energy (after all, you're not actually ejecting a bullet) that would significantly improve both power drain and waste heat.
