Best Electric Kettles for Pour-Over Coffee: KaffeBox’s Top Picks and Reviews

We’ve evaluated three electric kettles to bring you our top picks: the Brewista Artisan Electric Pouring Kettle, Timemore Smart Fish Electric Gooseneck Kettle, and Fellow Stagg EKG. Here’s our verdict:

Since all three electric kettles will give you excellent pouring capabilities, your choice might ultimately come down to personal design preferences!

Brewista Artisan Electric Pouring Kettle

Capacity: 1 liter
Heating speed (time to heat 500g to 96°C): 3 min, 5 sec

Starting with the Brewista Artisan, we definitely like its spout and reliable pouring capabilities, allowing for precise control over water flow which obviously is a crucial aspect of pour-over brewing. It also has the highest capacity out of the three kettles.

However its interface seems a bit cluttered with buttons. Additionally, the automatic shut-off feature can be a tad inconvenient when you need to briefly lift and replace the kettle during brewing.

Out of the three kettles, this kettle actually pours the fastest. You can pour 500g in 15 seconds, which can be an advantage in brew recipes that require a certain pouring/flow speed.

Timemore Smart Fish Electric Gooseneck Kettle

Capacity: 800 milliliters
Heating speed (time to heat 500g to 96°C): 2 min, 13 sec

Moving on to the Timoremore Fish Smart, we’re definitely drawn to its compact and sleek design. This is a great option for those with limited counter space. Its performance doesn’t disappoint either, delivering a smooth and controlled pour. However, we did encounter some issues with the touch panel, and the slider used to set water temperature, particularly when it came into contact with water. While it’s a minor inconvenience, it’s something to consider, perhaps especially if you’re impatient.

The curve of the spout let’s you come very close to the coffee.

This kettle pours 500g of water in 21 seconds.

Fellow Stagg EKG Electric Kettle

Capacity: 900 milliliters
Heating speed (time to heat 500g to 96°C): 2 min, 45 sec

Finally, we come to the Fellow Stagg EKG Pro, which is the the favorite among all of us in team KaffeBox. Its user-friendly interface, design and pouring capabilities makes it a joy to use. While it comes with a higher price tag compared to its counterparts, we believe its performance and overall user experience justify the investment for serious coffee enthusiasts.

This kettle has the slowest pour speed, with more than twice the time as the Brewista: 32 seconds for 500g of water.
