Wow if only there was some kind of device specifically designed to boil water for you that has a switch that automatically turns itself off once the water is boiling.....

Electric water cookers apparently don't work so well on 110V

I couldn't remember the word, in Dutch it's called a 'water koker', which literally translates to water cooker, so I just used that

Ok, now I feel bad

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They work fine. Not sure if they’re slower or something but it’s not really a problem.

Serious question. Is this device capable of boiling more than a gallon of water and if so, what is this device?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Serious question. What the fuck is a gallon?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

One large milk container with handle, equals one gallon.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am to believe that this also could be anything. I got a large milk container with a handle but I believe it's also 2 litres. There's also a large milk container with a handle and that's 3 litres. There's also a large milk container with a handle that's "heavy" or the weight of a small cat.

Maybe a gallon is secretly a cat.

Sounds like you need a nice unit between 3 and 4 liters hmm.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

About 4l give or take iirc?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Electric kettles. You can get ones with capacity of over a gallon if you really need that.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

But how do I boil with it?
