how long do you boil before done?

To tell you the truth, I go for the smell and the darkness of the "perk". If you take it off too soon, coffee is too weak. I'm of the school that the darker the better. I live at above 6000 feet so the boil point is MUCH longer than those at lower altitudes. So giving a "boil" time is not going to work.....when it smells right and the perk is DARK, then it is ready. I will then place coffee pot on a simmer plate on a back burner to keep it hot all morning. Usually after the first couple of mugs,I will remove the basket of coffee grounds. Hope you found this helpful.

If you fill it to the top with cold tap water it takes about 2 and a half minutes to boil.

I usually make 8 cups, 3/4 of a pot and it takes about 5 minutes from start to drinking time. It would probably take one more minute to brew a full pot since the largest amount of time is spent bringing water up to brewing temperature. Say 6 minutes for a full pot.

You do not HAVE to use boiling water. You can use hot (not boiling) or cold water and wait 30-60 minutes and have tea. Hot water is faster, boiling is even faster. I use these to cold brew. Put the bags in a pitcher of water, put the pitcher in a refrigerator. In a couple hours, the ice tea is ready and it is cold.

3 minutes, stir and then 30 seconds at a time for 2 more minutes. Stir often so it doesn't boil over.

Tap water, 1L, 5 minutes to full boil, timed with stopwatch. Doubted my results after seeing other answers, repeated with fresh water...same result.

I think it's like 10 min, not for sure. I used a microwave steamer, steamer bag or the dishwasher. I didn't have time to wait around for water to boil etc.

Just a few minutes. It boils in a fraction of the time it takes to boil water on a stove top. I like my electric kettle verymuch. Highly recommend it.

place the hardened heat pack into boiling water. boil until all crystals are melted and clear again. i usually boil about 10 minutes. when cooled down, the are ready to use again.

I've never actually timed myself. It has been my experience that it is less than the amount of time to bring the water to boil and still have time to grind more if necessary.

you cab leave it at a preset setting (warm) and it will take about 15 minutes to get there. Or you can turn it on high and in about 1-2 minutes it is hot and you will need to turn the settings down or it will start to boil the water.

The easiest way is to always bring the water to a boil (212 degrees) then let it "rest" until it reaches 175 -- the time it takes to cool down to 175 will be the same regardless of cooking method & variations in microwaves. Just put a thermometer in the water the first time you do this and time how long it takes, round that up to the nearest minute, and always wait that long after boiling -- for two cups, it should be about a minute. Another option is add 1.5 cups of boiling water (212 degrees) to .5 cups of room temp water (70 degrees)-- the result will be 175 degrees (.75*212 + .25*70 = 176). Voil!

With every new kettle I always first do cleanse: mix little baking soda with vinegar and water, boil it (don't get kettle to full, may be 3/4 of the volume even less). After water is boiled let it sit for 30 mins, rinse well, boil clean water again, rinse. Your beautiful kettle is ready!

I put them in cold water, bring to a boil, then turn down (half-heat) for 20-25 minutes. You can also start them at night in crockpot on low and they will be hot and ready in the morning.

This morning it took exactly 4 minutes to reach 195 degrees F. So I would say 5 minutes for a full boil.

Wash and dry 4-5 times for the most absorbency from the get go or boil for 20 minutes in a stock pot then wash and dry once before using.

10-15 minutes takes about 20-25 for boil. Great buy for brewing, used mine twice so far.
