What’s more, hot water can be drawn from any direction thanks to its 360 degrees rotating base. Water dispensed into a room-temperature mug from a hot water dispenser is 91°C. We repeated the same scenario with a freshly boiled kettle and the temperature of the water was 96°C once it was poured into the mug.

An effective stop or cancel button should work immediately. Most hot water dispensers fill a cup in a matter of seconds, so if it takes a while to stop the hot water flow, this function won’t be effective. Limescale filter If you find kettles bothersome to lift, fill, carry or pour, or just like the idea of dispensing a speedy cup of hot water without waiting around, a hot water dispenser could be a practical solution. How regularly you descale will depend on how often you use them and how hard the water supply is where you live. Many manufacturers recommend descaling around once every three months, but we’d advise referring to the instruction manual for your product, where detailed information will be given.

Ways to Descale Your Instant Hot Water Dispenser

Discard the water in the cup. Repeat steps 11 and 12 until the water level is at the MIN mark again. A hot water dispenser can boil and dispense a single mugful of water at a time. But while some will consistently give you the right amount of water at the right temperature, others spit water everywhere and dispense a less predictable amount. You should buy a hot water dispenser if you only want to boil a small amount of water at a time or have difficulty using a kettle. They’re not suitable for boiling large quantities of water, or for making lots of cups of tea in a row.

Designed for Safety】 In the event that the water pot runs dry, the auto-cut off function will be activated to ensure your safety. Additionally, the food grade 304 stainless steel interior allows you to use it without worry. You can use this safe electric hot pot kettle at night because of the night light and visible water level gauge.RELATED: Best Instant Hot Water Dispensers: hot water on-demand How Often Should I Descale My Hot Water Dispenser Fill your water dispenser to the MAX fill level and place an empty cup on the drip tray. Press the start button and wait for the water to be dispensed into the cup.

All of the hot water dispensers we tested come with a drip tray, similar to one you’d find on a coffee machine. This is where your cup sits while it’s being filled, and the drip tray will also catch any spills Boil dry protection If you are using vinegar, make up a solution of 1 cup vinegar to 1 cup of water. If you are using citric acid, mix 30g of the citric acid with 500ml of water.

These are a few of the features you should look out for when choosing the model for you. Easy-to-fill water tank

Remember to run two full tanks, one with the solution and second one with fresh clean water as part of your descaling routine. Personally, I prefer option 2, descaling using vinegar or citric acid as I know what I am putting into the system. An average mug holds 250ml of water and to heat this amount of water in a kettle or a hot water dispenser takes the same amount of time - around a minute - and the same amount of electricity. The water tank can't be removed separately from the dispenser, like on a coffee machine, but the water tank and dispenser can be removed from the base of the appliance (like a kettle).

Hot water dispensers are only cheaper and more efficient if you want to boil a single mug of water, and you have a kettle with a minimum fill volume of more than 250ml. In those cases, the kettle will take longer to boil and will cost you more money. The models rated in the table above were all tested in the Which? test lab in 2012, and have remained on sale since then. This is a handy feature to have in case you change your mind halfway through dispensing, or you realise your mug is going to overflow.
