Breville Temp Select

The Breville Temp Select is designed around specific preset temperature profiles for green, white, oolong, and black teas. It does not offer a manual, degree-by-degree temperature selection feature.

The Hold Temp function maintains your selected temperature for up to 20 minutes after the initial heating cycle is complete. This is ideal if you are preparing multiple cups or need a second pour shortly after the first.

The kettle weighs 4.9 pounds empty. While the stainless steel construction is durable, it does have some heft, though the ergonomic handle and 360-degree swivel base make it easy to maneuver and pour from any angle.

Yes, the kettle features a soft-opening lid designed to release steam gradually and safely. It opens wide enough to allow for easy access to the interior for cleaning and descaling.

Because this model is constructed from stainless steel, the exterior will get hot during the boiling process. It is best to handle the kettle only by the handle to avoid burns.

This model includes automatic shut-off, which triggers once the water reaches the selected temperature, and boil-dry protection, which prevents the heating element from activating if there is no water in the jug.
