Waring doesn't offer that information, but my guess is that the boiler is brass because the unit holds heat for quite a while and the unit feels too heavy for it to be aluminum.

stainless steel, i realy dont recomend this machine if u want to drink a coffe with milk in the morning and rush to work or school, it take forever to get to the roght temperature for boiling milk and sometimes it just release water instead of steam, it look nice machine but i regret buying it

Likely brass or stainless steel. The unit weighs 14 pounds. And unlike the person who stated the machine "...takes forever" to heat up, I am impressed by how quickly it heats to brewing temp, and then goes quickly to steam-level temperatures. I think their quality assurance must be lacking, but I got a good machine.

The only plastic I see on the whole machine is the base, the water reservoir, and the drip catcher under cup which is covered in stainless steel. The boiler has to be made of stainless steel.

Plastic and non-removable. I'm not aware of anything stainless. Good luck Charles.

I would guess stainless. Definitely not plastic, and too heavy for aluminum.

plastic. it's made to work in a microwave. the cover has a very small hole in it to vent the steam heat.

Its made out of brass and nickel I believe.... No plastic what so ever except the pads on the valve keys...

This is completely stainless steel inside the kettle. Only the lid, handle, and base are plastic. All the parts that touch water are stainless.

The bottom of the interior houses the heating element and it stainless steel, however the rest of the interior is plastic.

I have 2 of these and they are stainless steel, with a small amount of plastic on the tip of the curved hanger.This is a great dryer I use it daily

Plastic. All the metal pieces are covering plastic. I've since had more issues with gaskets and all the metal has fallen off the thermos.

The manufacturer has told me the Thermoblock is made of stainless steel. It's not a boiler, though, but what is called Thermoblock--newer technology. No worries about aluminum leaching into your espresso.

Stainless with a removable rubber washer (for washing) around the inside to seal when pouring. No plastic parts, very high quality. We love it and we are picky!!

It appears to be plastic, but it is a good imitation of stainless steel and matches the stainless body exactly.

I am pretty sure that it is stainless steel. They are built like tanks. I have pretty much converted to an electric pressure cooker; just tuneit in and walk away. No problem; love it. Try www.hippressurecooking.comas it is very inspirational.

No plastic, but I started getting headaches. I stopped using this boilr and started boiling water in a pan on the stove top and my headaches went away.

Both. It's made mostly of chrome plated stainless steel, with a couple of plastic parts.

the 681 is made of brushed aluminum inside and out the only plastic seems to be in the handle not in the boiling chamber. Love it!

Plastic interior thermal layer, stainless steel outer layer. It keeps the coffee hot. I have been pleased with it.
