Let’s talk kettle etiquette. I am a firm believer that you should fill up the kettle when you want to use it, not when you finish using it. It makes zero sense to put fresh water into a kettle, only to have it sit there for god knows how long before it gets used.
Also, opening a kettle and pouring cold water into it after it has just boiled is asking for a third degree burn of some variety.
A lot of people at my work whinge that all they ever do is fill the kettle up. Well what’s the difference between filling it up before you boil it or after you boil it? It’s a big kettle, you’re only using one cupful, so you only have to fill it up once either before or after! Stop complaining!
I never ever ever fill up the kettle after using it, so to all those people out there who complain that it’s bad kettle etiquette to leave it empty, I say Bah Humbug! Fill it up yourself.
