Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Panasonic NC-EH40PC 4.1-Quart Electric Thermo Pot

Customer Review: Almost perfect for French press
Summary: 5 Stars

Pro: Timer, variable temperature, large capacity, safety plug, removable lid, easy to use, convenient, carrying handle and white

Cons: timer is preset at 6 hours only and defaults to holds water at 190 degrees (but can by brought to 208 or boiling in about 2 minutes).


I got this to save some time making French press in the morning. I tried programmable drip coffee machines which cost as much as this thermo pot, but was disappointed with the lackluster results of the coffee when compared to French press. I guess I've just gotten spoiled by press coffee and cannot go back.

I use two Frieling Stainless-Steel French Press, one to drink before i leave the house and another to fill up my Thermos Nissan Stainless-Steel Insulated Bottle

I first looked at electric teakettles but models with variable temperature settings cost as much as this, lack a programmable timer, and don't hold near as much hot water. I also considered a zojirushi thermo pot but it cost a little more and only came in an ugly yellow color from the 80s. I'd rather have stainless, but white beats out that dated yellow/beige by a long shot.

The Panasonic thermo pot works perfectly for my routine and holds enough water to preheat both press pots and my thermos. The timer function works as specified and i wake up with 190 degree water which is reheated to 208 degrees in the time it takes to grind my coffee using a Breville BCG450XL Conical Burr Grinder.

While i love this thermo pot and it has simplified and shortened my morning coffee routine, if i could change anything it would be by adding an adjustable timer instead of having a static 6 hour timer and the ability to determine the temperature setting for the timer instead of being stuck with the default 190 degree.

Nonetheless, i would buy the thermo pot again and still feel it warrants a 5 star rating.
