The Brevilles base is brushed stainless steel base encircles a mounting post that allows the kettle to rotate 360.° Power is delivered through the mounting post, making the jug entirely cord-free when lifted from the base. The underside of the Breville features wrap-around cord storage to customize cord length. Positioned at the rear of the kettle, the water level indicator is suitable for both left and right-handed use. A blue light illuminates the gauge, which goes from 500ML (17 fl. oz.) right up to the kettle’s maximum capacity of 1700ML (54 fl. oz.). The transparent lid features the world’s first internal gear-dampening system. This controls the lid’s opening action and safely staggers the release of steam. The domed shape channels condensation back into the jug and opens wide for easy access. A special bi-metal sensor tracks internal temperature and automatically switches the kettle off after the water begins to boil. For further protection, a second bi-metal sensor turns off the kettle if it’s started without water in the jug. The 1500 watt heating element is impact bonded to a flat stainless steel cover to shield it from water and maximize heat transfer. Boiling a 1/2 liter (17 fl oz.) of water takes less than a minute. The flat base ensures fast and easy cleaning inside the kettle. The body’s hand brushed stainless steel has been triple-pressed for a refined finish and added durability. The handle is made from Thermo-plastic Elastomer, which combines strength and a soft-touch consistency while handling.
