TEA
achieve abetter taste from one season to the
next. Examples of popular black tea blends are
English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Irish Breakfast and
Russian Caravan.
TIP:
The leaves of infused tea can serve as garden
fertilisers and can improve soil quality.
Storage of tea
Tea is very prone to taking dierent scents
and smells. To ensure the right taste and
aroma, tea should not be allowed to moisten
or come into contact with light.
Store tea in vacuum packs, where it can
be stored for up to 2 years. However, this
depends on the quality and the type of tea.
Once the vacuum pack is opened, tea should
be transferred to airtight containers and
stored in adry and dark place.
After opening, black tea lasts much longer
than green or oolong tea; however, all teas
should be stored in adry and dark place.
After the expiration data, the tea loses its
aroma and the taste ranges from bitter to
faint.
Tips for optimum tea preparation
Water quality aects the taste of the tea
extract. Use ltered water to get amore
quality extract.
Smaller tea leaves are infused much faster
than entire large leaves. This results in avery
quick release of alarge amount of tannins,
which can cause atart taste. To achieve the
optimum taste it is recommended to set the
correct infusion time.
Follow the instructions on tea packaging,
which list the recommended infusion
temperature and time.
Tea
TYPES OF TEA
We distinguish between four main kinds of tea from the Chinese tea tree (Camellia sinensis)
based on processing.The collection and fermentation processes (oxidation of polyphenols
that leads to chemical changes in tea leaves and causes them to darken) aect the nal type
of tea produced.
Black tea is the most popular tea in the world.
The harvested leaves are fermented (oxidised)
several hours prior to heating or drying. During
the oxidation process, the leaves darken and
the theine content increases. Black tea has the
strongest taste and richest colour out of all the
kinds of tea.
White tea is the rarest and most exclusive tea.
It contains whitish tea buds that are steamed
and then dried naturally. This type of tea has
alow content of theine and has aslightly sweet
taste.
Green tea accounts for about 10% of the
World'stea. The tea leaves are collected, rolled,
and dried before darkening. Green tea has
adistinctive aroma and slightly bitter taste.
Oolong tea is semi-fermented tea, which
means that the leaves are processed
immediately after collection. They only pass
through oxidation for ashort time, where they
become green or light reddish to brown. The
tea has apleasant fruity taste. However, it is not
recommended to drink oolong tea with milk,
sugar or lemon.
Herbal decoctions and teas are not produced
from atea tree but from owers, leaves, roots
or seeds. The most popular herbal teas are
chamomile tea, mint tea, fennel tea, rosehip
tea, and lemon verbena. Herbal decoctions that
do not contain tea cannot turn bitter during
along infusion and can be infused up to three
times in arow without loss of taste.
Tea blends
Tea manufacturers also produce tea blends by
combining dierent types of tea, very often to

BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Before rst use, remove all packaging
and advertising labels / stickers from the
kettle.
2. Wash the strainer lid, the strainer, and
the kettle lid in warm water with alittle
washing-up liquid. Rinse and wipe dry.
3. Wipe the kettle and the base with adry
soft sponge.
4. Before using the kettle for the rst time,
boil clean water in the kettle. Fill the
kettle with clean water, bring to the boil
and then pour the water out. Repeat this
procedure three or four times.
Using the kettle to prepare tea
1. Place the kettle on adry and even surface
near asocket.
2. Remove the kettle from the base.
3. Unwind the power cord fully. On the
sides of the base are practical cut-outs
to place the power cord safely. Insert the
power cord into one of the cut-outs and
click.
4. Turn the strainer lid counter-clockwise
until the mark on the strainer is pointing
to OPEN on the kettle lid. Remove the lid.
5. Take the strainer out and put it to one
side.
6. Remove the kettle lid.
7. Pour the required amount of water into
the kettle. Do not use too much cold
water. When lling the kettle with water,
keep to the minimum and maximum
lines.
NOTE:
The maximum water volume for tea
preparation is 1200 ml. Do not add
more water if preparing tea. Hot water
can splash from the kettle and there
is arisk of burns. The minimum water
volume for tea preparation is 500 ml.
If you pour less water into the kettle,
the infusion process may not be fully
eective.
WARNING:
Do not use too cold
or icy water. Allow
the kettle to cool
before reuse.
8. Position the kettle lid and then the
strainer lid. Align the mark on the strainer
lid with the OPEN sign on the kettle lid.
Turn the lid clockwise until it reaches the
CLOSE sign.
9. Transfer the kettle to the base.
10. Now plug the power cord in the socket.
Abeep will sound and the LCD display
will light up.
11. Press MENU repeatedly to select the
type of tea to prepare or select one of
your own saved programmes (for more
information see the next section of the

NOTE:
The kettle has seven pre-set
programmes and three programmes
that the users can modify themselves.
The pre-set (default) programmes are:
Green, Black, Herbal, Oolong, White,
Boil (warming-up to 100oC), Flower.
Each of these programmes has apre-
set temperature and infusion time.
However, these values can also be
changed according to your personal
preference using the TIME / TEMP
button.
SUMMARY OF DEFAULT PROGRAMMES
Warm-up temperature Infusion time
Green tea / 75 °C 3 minutes
Black tea / 95 °C 6 minutes
Herbal tea / 90 °C 8 minutes
Oolong tea / 90 °C 5 minutes
White tea / 85 °C 4 minutes
Boil / 100 °C -
Flower / 95 °C 5 minutes
NOTE:
Press the TIME / TEMP button again to
switch between the default infusion
time and the default temperature.
12. Press the START button. The warming-up
icon lights up and the water begins to be
heated to the required temperature. As
soon as the water temperature inside the
kettle reaches 30 °C, the temperature will
be displayed, which will increase at 5 °C
increments.
13. When warming-up the water, add tea,
dried herbs, fresh herbs, or tea bags to
the strainer. The amount of tea or herbs
used always depends on your personal
taste. Generally, 2 to 3 grams of tea per
200 ml of water are used. If you prefer
amore intense taste, increase the
amount of tea used.
14. Once the water in the kettle reaches
the set temperature, abeep sounds and
"PAUSE" appears in the display. At the
same time, a10-minute timer countdown
starts. During this time, the kettle will
keep the set temperature and the
warming-up icon will ash. At the same
time, abeep will sound every 2 minutes,
indicating the need to insert the strainer.
If you do not press the START button
within 10 minutes to start the infusion
process, the kettle will turn o.
15. Remove the strainer lid and insert the
strainer. It is important that the strainer
handle points towards the kettle handle.
Position the lid back. It is important
that you do not remove the kettle from
the base. This would cancel the entire
heating process and stop the infusion.
NOTE:
If any tea or herbs stay on the surface,
use ateaspoon to immerse them into
water.
WARNING:
Be particularly
careful when
removing the strainer
lid. After removing,
very hot steam may
escape from the
opening, which can
cause serious burns,
or hot or boiling
water may splash
out. Do not touch
the kettle lid while
inserting the strainer.
The kettle lid is very
hot and severe burns
can occur.
16. Now press the START button to start the
infusion process. Abeep sounds and
"PAUSE" disappears from the display.
The warming-up icon lights up and the
infusion time countdown starts.
17. Once the pre-set infusion time has
elapsed, abeep sounds and the kettle
switches o. The warming-up icon
disappears from the display.
18. Remove the strainer lid and take the
strainer out immediately after the
infusion time has elapsed. This prevents
any degradation of the tea, as some
types of tea may become bitter if they are
infused for too long.
NOTE:
If you do not remove the strainer
within 30 seconds after the infusion is
completed, abeep sounds to indicate
the need to remove the strainer.
WARNING:
Be careful when
handling the lid
and strainer. Never
handle them over
the control panel and
display. Use abowl or
dessert plate to rest
the lid and strainer
on.
19. Position the strainer lid back. The tea is
now ready for drinking.
20. The timer stops ve minutes after
completion of the infusion if the kettle is
not removed from the base sooner.
