I wouldn't put it directly on a burner without a buffer of some kind. You could however place it in a larger pot (soup pot maybe) submerged in a half inch of water as long as the water doesn't totally evaporate. I would worry the glass will crack if put directly on the burner. I'm sure melitta has guidelines somewhere, as you wouldn't be the first person to want to keep the coffee warm. I place the pot on a folded towel, then wrap another folded towel around the pot while I drink my first cup. Consider buying a thermos pot to pour it in. That's a safer idea and the coffee won't get bitter from being heated. I wouldn't put it directly on a burner without a buffer of some kind.

I'm not sure I would put it on direct heat, but maybe a hot plate on very low or those warmer plate things. I think in the directions somewhere it says not to put it on direct heat or to boil water in it, the glass is thinner than I'd want a glass kettle to be; also the plastic handle would probably melt off (I had that happen to one of my mokka pots).It's not pyrex, it's Schott Duran.

I wouldn't do it. The brochure that came with the unit says:Caution: To avoid breakage and injury:-Do not use carafe to boil liquids or for cooking purposes-Never place the carafe on a gas or electric range, or in a conventional or microwave ovenAgain, it may not break, but I would think twice before using the pot contrary to the Cautions.

I use this pot on a gas stovetop, but it is Pyrex so it should be fine on an electric burner.

No... not pyrex... and would NOT put it on an electric stove. Works great, though, and very convenient.

Yes, if you have one of those wire stars that you put on the element between the stove element and the glass as long as you don't try to heat it too fast, just keep it on low to very low to keep it warm.

This is meant for brewing tea, so I don't know if can be heated on the stove. I would recommend getting a pot meant for the stove instead of this one just to be safe.

I have a glass top electric range with this pan and have no problems with it. Of course, I have never used this pan with another type of stove. Hopefully the other reviewer gave specifics. Good luck!

I use it on an induction cooktop, which has a glass top, but is different from an electric stove. But the heat of the pot would be the same regardless of the means of heating the pot. I don't think they'd manufacture a pot that wouldn't work on the main kinds of stoves (gas, electric, induction).

Yes this can be on electric heat or gas stovetop. The thing need to take care is that to use this hot pot to cook porridge first time. The amylum can help seal this hot pot to avoid crack in the future usage.

NO! This is a thermal carafe and will be ruined if you use it on an electric stove or burner of any sort. It is to pour hot coffee into the cone and through the grounds in it.

Quite easily! We have a 220-Volt stove with electric coils. The pot will shake a little if the coils are uneven, but that's not a real problem. This is a great product, especially for pour-over coffee (we have a Clever dripper).

I'm actually not sure I have a regular electric stove. I would guess it would be of but I wouldn't have it on extreme heat since those pans can get very hot.

I think the company that made the stove is the one to answer your question ..as you can or can not put in your stove, use the pot on gas and electric stoves and my food is tasty good, I am happy with my pot I recommend it

No. This carafe is meant to be used with a Krups espresso machine. The glass is delicate and would not be used on a stovetop or other method.

You can use it on a glass top stove, but you would have to be very careful not to scratch the glass surface. The pot is heavy by itself and filled with a stew becomes heavier.

Absolutely not! There are glass teapots for stove use but this is not one of them.

I use it on a gas stove, but the bottom is very flat and should work well on a glass-top electric.

Wish I could help. I have glass top electric and works great. You may need to contact your stove manufacturer.

Yes. The heating element is under the bottom of the pot and is completely enclosed. However, as with any electrical coffee pot, you cannot emerge the pot in water. It cleans beautifully by putting vinegar in the pot and running it for 1 cycle. I love this pot. Use it every day.

It's a glass container so if you put it on an electric element it will break -- should be OK on a gas stove. For electric, put a triangle of wire (like coat-hanger wire) on the burner first, then the container on top of that. At least that's how I used to do it; don't bother now, just drink my coffee faster!

No I would not put it on a stove. It seems quite fragile. I think it should be only used as intended. There is a metal base in which you put a candle to warm it up, or keep it warm, but putting it on electric stove would probably not a good idea.
