When I read that the theme for today was ‘Hexagons’, I thought it would cause me problems trying to find subject matter. Why not have a cup of tea whilst thinking about the task! Kettle filled with water, plugged in and…….bingo! The perfect subject was there, right in front of me! The hexagonal pattern on the kettle!

I don't think I'm safe standing here on top of the kitchen kettle. I think I'm beginning to slip and slide ......

I think this is the best variable temp pour over kettle on the market today. Excellent pour spout and lightning quick. Only issue is it usually overshoots its temperature a bit.

Lins had a wee bit of an accident yesterday morning, and left me a note, lol. Yep, it’s broken, but I had a replacement, so no problem. We use this electric kettle everyday. When you find a great product, you always buy a second one. She has already gone online to replace the replacement, lol.

Actually, I'm looking round for ideas for next week's Macro Mondays theme, red. The teapot is red and black to my naked eye; it has come out a bit too pink.

I'm not long home from the hospital. My husband has been having chest pain again and probably needs another stent. We will know tomorrow. I needed a coffee ... a quick one!
Now here's a real beauty - a Swan electric kettle. It was design in 1959 and is made of chrome plated copper with a Bakelite handle. It is a very elegant and sophisticated design, quite uncluttered with the handle and spout giving forward motion and a neat little pull lever incorporated into the handle to open the spout. The spout also incorporates a whistle!

This must count as one of the smallest catalogues (in terms of size) in my collection - and so as a scale it is scanned against a current UK penny! I recall the Birmingham company of Bulpitts for two reasons - firstly, we often drove past the factory, near Icknield St, and I recall a large "Swan Brand" sign on the exterior of the building. Secondly - many households had Swan Brand teapots and such like so they were a familiar part of domestic life. Bulpitts and been founded in 1868 as brassfounders, a good Birmingham trade, and became known for kettles and such. The company's real leap forward appears to have been two-fold - they helped pioneer the use of aluminium for household good (and I have a 'commemorative Swan Brand miniature teapot from the 1924 Empire Exhibition) and they also helped develop the 'submersible electric heating element' that pioneered modern electric kettles. They deserve a blue plaque for that I'd say!
The company eventually formed part of a local group of companies, BSR (Housewares) that included Judges, the well-known Black Country makers of enamel cookware - and the BSR stood for 'Birmingham Sound Reproduction' as that company had made record player turntables. In time the Bulpitt concern - and the brand name "Swan' - became part of the French concern Moulinex.
This is the front and back cover of this tiny publication - it was likely attached to a product by string as a 'reminder' to purchasers.
According to a recent survey, 95% of households in Britain have an electric kettle – I'm surprised it's as low as that.
Apparently, ten times as many are sold in the UK as in France, which has approximately the same population. Electric kettles aren't as common in the US either. I found that this is because we have 240 volt electricity with a top rating of 13 amps, which provides 3000 watts causing the kettle to boil quickly. A 120 volt supply gives half the power so doubles the boiling time.
ManRand has chosen Everything but the kitchen sink as today's topic for the Our Daily Challenge group. A kettle is as important as a sink in the kitchen 😜
From the same people who brought you Wall-Clad, I give you All-ppliances, on our new super-cheap steel shelving from IKEA (HYLLIS, $15 each). Missing is our Cuisinart 5.5 quart stand mixer (with new Xmas gift...the SM-MG meat grinder attachment...thx Michelle!).

This page shows the famous 'electric kettles' along with percolators and electric saucepans. They may have been cutting edge but at 10 minutes to boil (I'd hope that was the six pint version) and no doubt with the house lights dimming as it did it perhaps we shoudl be thankfully for the evolution of the element!
A look into many a typical '50s and early 1960s British household here as autumn and winter approached with a range of household goods and products to help keep that lovely draughty and uninsulated home a little more comfortable duringt he winter months! It is worth recalling how few UK homes had central heating at the time and indeed even many new houses of the day would still have had opne coal fires or more modern coke based stoves/boilers and so the appearance here of items such as fireguards and companion sets is no surprise. Equally the range of 'mobile' electric fires and paraffin stoves tells of the attempts to make bedrooms and bathrooms warm.
Elsewhere there are a range of mats, rugs, household furniture and brooms and brushes as well as items for the pipe smoking father to manage the autumn needs of gardening and decorating.
Timothy Whites and Taylors were a well knwon High Street staple of household stores and dispensing chemists that was formed in 1935 with the merger of the two companies. Timothy Whites had their origin in Portsmouth in 1848 when the owner started a chandler's shop. The company added pharmacy services from 1869. Taylors Drug Company were a originally a Leeds, Yorkshire, based company formed in 1887. The shops were acquired by Boots the Chemists in 1968 and the separate shops and name slowly vanished over the next few years.
Desde su invención hasta los 60's, era común ver en los hogares chilenos aparatos como estos; metálicos, cromados, de funcionamiento continuo, con pocas partes aislantes y algunos con importantes faltas a los estándares de seguridad.
Tostador ELECTRON (izquierda) hecho en acero inoxidable salvo por su base, de latón cromado, con cordón fijo.
Tostador CARLOMM (derecha)hecho en latón cromado, con cordón extraíble.
_Ambos tostadores cargaban una rebanada de pan en cada tapa (tienen dos y abren hacia abajo,) debían precalentarse antes de usarse y una vez puesto el pan, debía vigilarse para no quemarlo y para invertirlo. Carecían de termostato y el pan se tostaba a un solo lado ya que el resistor estaba en medio de los dos panes.
Calentador de agua, sin marca (arriba) hecho en cobre cromado, con cordón extraible para llevarlo cómodamente a la mesa.
_Tal vez sea el artículo más peligroso de usar, en especial si hay niños pequeños cerca. Mientras está operando se calienta completamente por ser de cobre y su tapa sólo va sobrepuesta, por esto, un tirón del cordón en ese caso causaría un accidente bastante grave.
Plancha: Industria J-H 220 Volts Promoción (abajo) hecha de hierro y latón cromado, con cordón extraíble.
_Como todas las de su tipo, una vez calentada al máximo, sólo puede usarse en tejidos de algodón o lino ya que su temperatura daña las telas finas o sintéticas. Para planchar estas telas ,sólo debe calentarse un poco y planchar sin el cordón. En la foto, la plancha aparece sobre una base que se compraba aparte.

An early electric kettle made from copper. I found it a difficult thing to photograph without getting the camera or other unwanted reflections on the kettle. This is the best attempt

This is the new electric version of the Buono kettle (compared to what I have acquired last year).
This cuts out the worry of burning the bottom of my beautiful kettle and it boils water for my coffee at the correct temperature.

Well, almost dead. This has been my household kettle for around twenty years (any comments about the filthy condition and I'll come round and inspect your kettle). At a guesstimate of a thousand litres a year that's twenty tonnes of water which have passed through its spout. Last week, it started to stick to its base and I noticed a hole had started to melt through the plastic. It still worked, but was obviously no longer reliable, and probably dangerous too. I really didn't want to throw it in the rubbish, but what else to do with a dead electric kettle?
