Is the fellows kettle worth it?
We have a 5 piece vacuum storage set, a few of their mugs, and I’m always half in half out on. $200 kettle
It is expensive for sure. If you are trying to make better tasting coffee, not at all. A few degrees won’t really make a difference in the final taste. Honestly, I got it because it’s probably the nicest looking kettle out there. The money would be better spent going toward a better grinder IMO.
I have what I'm pretty sure is an Amazon clone, $30 and going strong in its second year of daily use...
I could wish the build quality was better for the money, but they pour great and the temp is accurate. It does a weird thing where it kinda sneaks up on the correct temp…so it gets to, say 210F really quickly then takes forever to get to 212. Overall positive and it beats the crap out of my tea kettle for v60.
