Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum 5410-581USA Mini Ibis Electric Water Kettle, Graphite BlueCustomer Review: Bodum Ibi are the BEST Summary: 5 Stars
This kettle is IDEAL and a part of my daily a.m. rountine. I rinse out the grounds from the Chambord French Press as the tap water gets hot and then fill the Ibis 1.3 or so inches from the top and start her up. After grinding the beans and putting them into the clean Press the Ibis is boiling and I turn it off and pour it into the Bodum press. The mini Ibis holds exactly the right amount of water for the regular (medium?) sized Presses- 27 oz. I use the Ibis for tea, cocoa, anything. But coffee mostly. Found mine at a clearance section of a gourmet shoppe at an outlet center for like 5 bucks and used it daily (usually at least 2x) for...8 years and 3 months. Oh, and Bodum rocks. I bought a "cheaper brand" French Press and the top kept loosening and wobbling and there were grounds in the coffee. Also check out the Bodum latte foamer (hand press; can you say 3 minutes?) and tea brewers. I would work for Bodum if they wanted me!!
Description of Bodum 5410-581USA Mini Ibis Electric Water Kettle, Graphite BlueThe miniature Ibis is sized to boil water for one. Its modern Scandinavian design makes it an attractive office companion for boiling water to make tea or coffee. And, with its reasonable price, this kettle travels well to college to make instant noodles in a dorm room. Made of heavyweight polypropelene plastic with a copper-sheathed, nickel-plated heating element, the Mini Ibis holds a maximum of 27 fluid ounces of water (about 3-1/2-cups). It must be filled to a minimum of 7 fluid ounces--just enough to cover the heating element--to operate. Plugging the unit in and flipping up the switch below the kettle's handle turns on the power. The heating process is rapid and quiet: it takes only 4 minutes to boil 27 ounces of water and the sound is almost imperceptible. For safety purposes, the Ibis automatically shuts off after boiling and has a locking lid to prevent spilling and a frosted handle for a secure grip. --Cristina Vaamonde
