Does this unit 'reboil' on it's own? Or does it simply keep the temp. constant after the initial boil? I'm concerned about steam after initial boil.

It doesn't reboil unless it needs to bring the temperature back up. It does keep the temperature constant. It's a nice unit.

Thermostat keeps the temperature consistant at the level you set. That means the thermostat trigers reboiling whenever the water temperature goes down to the level. There is no steam whatsoever unless you open the lid. You can keep it plugged in 24/7, and it's completely safe. Buy it. You'll love it.

There are 4 temperature settings you can select ranging from 140F to 208F. Once it boils, the pot maintains the water at the temperature you've selected. I don't think it re-boils the water automatically. But there is a "re-boil" button on the control panel. Hope this would help.

Yes, This Pot Will automatically Restart And Bring It Back To The Preset Temperature. I Hope I Answered Your Question.

I find that it stops brewing... Then I would remove the grounds...and maybe occasionally it will kind of sound like it's trying to rebrew but actually is just reheating... I personally think you wouldn't want to leave it plug in all day or it would taste old and burnt... Hope this helps!

It stays warm as the bottom part of the pot keeps the water at boiling temperature. This is not necessarily a good thing since it causes over brewing.

It has a warm setting when the cook time is supposedly done but on that warm setting stuff still boils unfortunately. I have had two and it happened on both.

It does for just a few minutes only after replenishing the water. I simply slide it a bit forward so it's not directly under cabinet then when finished boiling i slide it back under.

Hi Adrienne. I'm not entirely sure what you're asking. When you first plug it in (and put water in it) you'll see that the temperature indicator light for 185 degrees lights up. If you press the "reboil/temp. Set" button, you'll see that you can select other temps that way. Keep pressing until it lands on the 208.4 F temp. It'll start boiling right away. It doesn't keep the water at 212 F (the boiling point) but at 209.4, the perfect temp for black tea. You can press that button again to get it to boil if you want (like for hot cereal or something that calls for boiling water). Does that answer your question?

No. Once the water comes to a boil, the tea kettle turns off. As far as needing to reheat the water.... this kettle is super fast. I am very happy with it.

I have boiled mine.. and I have not. No noticeable difference although when you boil a bunch of it at a time it does release stuff into the water whether it is natural stuff or not. I usually boil for 5 mins. dump water out and boil again for a few minutes.

For example. I set to 208 deg. When it gets there it holds and stops. Does not go past that temp at all. I pour my water. It will go down some. If I quickly want another cup I hit temp set again and it heats to that temp again and only that temp. Only to temp set. Hope that helps.

Yes, the separate base stays plugged into your outlet and the kettle simply lifts off for your use. Just set the Kettle back on the base when you are done and it is ready to reheat. Very nice unit.

I did check the accuracy with boiling water when I first got it. It was accurate to within 1°F as I recall, and didn't re-calibrate my unit. The unit has operated perfect for me. No complaints.

Not sure. It shuts down as soon as it comes to a boil. It's not hot enough for me, I always nuke it a bit.

I do steam. Only put on high temp until the water boils then I lower it until I get an even boil. Any higher and you just boil off the water quicker. I.E. temp of steam is always 212 degrees no mater how much of it we make.

I am not sure about the bpa. Other people seem to think it does not. In terms of steam, it only occurs when the unit is initially boiling. I pull it out and fill it up. Once it beeps, it means it is done boiling and I slide the unit back under the cupboard.

It's a mixture of water and cleaner. The manual suggests using warm water. There's definitely no steam, though.

While it is supposed to prevent the urn from switching to reboil when water is added, in fact all it does is lock the green "ready" indicator light on and the red "boiling" indicator off, regardless of what the urn is actually doing.As a result, most people who would by this for use on Yomtov in fact can't use it for such.
