InstaCuppa Stainless Steel Pour Over Coffee & Tea Kettle with Built-in Thermometer for Exact Temperature, Gooseneck Spout for Smooth Pouring, Easy to Grip & Heat Resistant Handle, 1200 ML, Black

Although ₹2000 is a bit expensive for a kettle, with the nearest alternative for a gooseneck kettle at over ₹5000 I decided to go for this. I am very happy with the purchase.The flow is slow and steady enough to make good pour overs. This supplements my Hario dripper very well. The quality of the steel and the finish is top class. The temperature sensor is a good add on. Even some of the more expensive ones don't have this.Overall, really good product; but a bit on the expensive side.

Really great quality product, the temperature sensor is super useful, and it's easy to clean as well. Highly recommended

This is closely similar to Hario Buono from Japan. The added thermometer is not accurate or calibrated properly and has an error of - 2/3°C than the actual temperature and for the price we're paying this shouldn't have been the case! It's stainless steel material is quite alright and so far I haven't had any problems in boiling water and getting a controlled pour through its gooseneck Spout. Although, I don't really do pour overs that often but, Overall, it satisfies the desire of having this design of a kettle seeing the price of Hario which is almost double the price of this due to imports and taxes. The aesthetics and a controlled pour of this kettle (if you can get use to slightly uncalibrated thermometer) will surely uplift your coffee brewing experience. It's cost only justifies correctly when you understand that there are very few to none gooseneck kettles out there in Indian Market with this design similar to Buono. But if Hario Buono is your thing just go for that because nothing is expensive for taste and hobbies! Shauq badi cheez Hai!

Really solidly built kettle and very well thought out design. I found the thermometer to be quite accurate, keeping in mind that I live in a higher altitude area, where the boiling point of water is lower than 100 degree C. I love that the thermometer is removable, and I do remove it before washing. This is meant only for boiling water and the thin long neck is meant to provide full control over the pouring of water while brewing coffee or tea. To folks who ask if milk can be boiled in this, it’s not ideal. Because there is almost no way you can clean the milk residue off the thin long neck even with a straw-cleaning brush, because unlike straws, this is not straight. Over time milk residue will collect on the inside. So yeah basically this is designed only for water. Highly recommended.

Yes it's as good as mentioned. Was waiting for a long time for this product to reappear again on Amazon. The temperature knob is not a gimmick too. It's as good in working as it is promised. I have other gear from this company and they seem to be great as well. No complaints from them, hopefully this one will be as great in the long run as they are. If you are confused about the price difference between Hario and this one - with this one having an additional temperature knob feature - it's because that one is overpriced because of its novel gooseneck construction which this one manages to replicate but at less than half the price. Maybe I am low on budget, as will be the case with many wanting to buy a gooseneck kettle but to get repeatable precision pouring with an additional temperature gauge which even further adds to variable control and removes second guessing, I will still gravitate towards this product rather than Bueno because of additional feature and price. Perhaps save that money for a precision scale.

Does the job well. The built in thermometer makes it a superior alternative to the Hario Buono, which sells for almost double the price

I like that the kettle is so simple. It can be used on the stove top, as well as an induction cooker. Doesn’t take long to boil water.The thermometer is not very accurate, though. When the water is boiling inside, it reads more than 100.Also, when the kettle is full, once the water starts to boil with the lid closed, water starts to pour out of the spout, which was a little bit of a mess the first time I used it.But it pours very well, and if you are okay with some loss of precision in the temperature of the water, it’s a very good product.

Now I have gone through a lot of product reviews on this and based on this I am willing to accept that the product I have received is faulty and while writing this review I have ordered another replacement. Here is the problem I have with this product:1. Earn you start it, all electronics go haywire and it doesn’t start2. After a while (no fixed time, depends on the mood of the kettle) it does start but no matter what you do it doesn’t warm to more than 92.3. I checked the water as well independently and what shows as 92 in the kettle is actually around 78 degrees. This will never make coffee. Best case, you can only drink it as warm water.4. Sometimes after warming up, it stops working all together. You need to cool the system before getting it to work again.5. THe keep warm functionality doesn’t do anything. It’s just there as a show piece.6. The default temperature in the kettle is 87 degrees. Even if you put ice cold water in it, it shows 87 degrees and when you heat it up it shows 92 degree.Based on the above, I recommend (if the replacement also behaves similarly) not to use this product at all. But if the replacement behaves as expected I’ll delete this review and write another one.
