Bonavita Cosmopolitan Electric Gooseneck Kettle, 1 L, Variable Temperature

Bonavita Cosmopolitan, 1 L Gooseneck Electric Kettle

A variable-temperature gooseneck kettle for pour-over coffee, French press, and loose-leaf tea. Choose your water temperature from 140 to 212°F in one-degree steps, with six presets and a 60-minute hold.

Two jobs, one kettle

The spout controls how you pour. A gooseneck gives you a thin, aimable stream so you can direct water across the coffee bed and follow your pour-over recipe's stages. Your grind, dose, and technique still matter. The kettle gives you control over water delivery, not a guarantee of perfect coffee.

The temperature setting controls your starting point. Rather than boiling water and guessing how long to let it cool, select a temperature for your recipe. Keep your coffee and water amounts consistent, then change one thing at a time based on taste.

What temperature should I use?

Start with the recommendation for your coffee recipe or tea leaves. Different coffees, brewing methods, and teas can call for different temperatures, so there isn't one setting that suits everything. Six presets cover common settings, and one-degree steps let you fine-tune your choice.

Why the hold matters

The 60-minute hold keeps water at your selected temperature while you grind, weigh your coffee, and rinse the filter. It's also useful when another cup is next and you want water ready between brews. If a cup tastes thin or sour, check your recipe, grind, dose, and brewing technique rather than assuming temperature alone is the cause.
