Do you need to remove the lid in order to pour boiled water?

I don't know if you "have" to; I always do. The lid is extremely useful in the sense that it warns you when it has reached the right boiling point pressure. To that point make sure that it is well placed (you will feel a satisfying click).Best regards.Sherban Popovici

Basically yes. There is no separate pour spout, the water pours out the top. Notice there is a big lever on the back of the lid, so it's very simple to do.

Yes. And, watch out for the steam from the whistle hole. You can get a nasty burn.

no you do not have to take the lid off, it is like a tervis with a sliding sippy cup hole

The water gets very hot just like you boiled it on the stove. So yes you would have to let it cool down before drinking. But if you don't want it that hot only fill the cup partway, heat that amount of water, empty to the cup and add cool water for the desired drinking temperature.

it can be safe to pour boiling water straight from the kettle into the thermos

No, this is the standard lid that fits the pot perfectly and doesn't have an opening for pouring.

Unfortunately, no. You need to keep the infuser in the kettle to put the lid on.

No. You could microwave the water then pour it in, I just use a tea kettle on the stove. Doesn't even have to be boiling.

Yes but I would not pour boiling water in it. The pot is made of thin glass

No. I use an electric kettle to boil the water and then pour it in the pitcher to brew.

Yes you do, but only if you need to get the last drops out. I can hold the lid in place with my thumb while pouring, keeping the other hand free. It has not been a nuisance in about 6 months of usage, twice per day.

No you do not need the lid unless you are wanting to serve the food in the aluminum pot and then you might want the lid. You do not need it if you intend to transfer contents to another container when you are done.

Yes. But I don't recommend the kettle. Poor design causes hot steam to reach fingers when pouring.

Yes, the lid provides good pot insulation, even while allowing water to drip in and coffee to pour out, without need to remove lid. Coffee stays hot and fresh-tasting for four hours or so.

NO! I have poured boiling water in it, but do not place it on a stove and heat it because it will break!

Yes, you can keep the whistle lid open to pour the water. This is my second All Clad whistling tea kettle. The first one did not whistle and this one does whistle but you will not hear it if you move out of the kitchen. It is not the best whistling kettle. My first one I returned to the company because it just did not whistle at all. All in all, I am not as happy with this All Clad kettle because of the weak whistle.

No. I use boiling water from the stove when I fill it up and as soon as I am finished feeding, I empty the water from the lower compartment. Would have been nice if it did separate for cleaning, but so far I have had no problems with it and still really like having it.

No - after a couple of times you get the hang of it -only take the lid off to clean the pot
