Eighteen Numbered Programmes Printed Across the Base Front800 W Glass Kettle 18 Programmes

HKM-6580179 is an 800 W glass kettle with a stainless tea infuser that hangs from the lid into the jug, a white lid and handle, and a white base whose front edge is printed with eighteen numbered programmes and four keys.

The jug is high borosilicate glass, the infuser is SUS304 mesh, and the base carries a small display that shows the programme code.

It suits a kitchen where one appliance is asked to boil water, brew loose leaf and simmer a dessert: the programme list runs from water and flower tea through porridge, soup and dessert to milk, egg and noodles, which is a wider set than a kettle normally carries.

Body, Material and Fit

The jug is high borosilicate glass, cylindrical with a slight shoulder and a thick base where it seats on the plate.

The lid is white, domed, with a broad flat knob, and the handle is a rectangular loop in the same white moulding, anchored at the shoulder and at the base collar rather than on the glass itself.

The infuser is a mesh cylinder in SUS304 with a solid band at the top and bottom, hanging from the underside of the lid on a short stem so its base sits just above the floor of the jug.

• Power: 800 W
• Jug: High borosilicate glass, white lid and handle
• Infuser: SUS304 stainless mesh cylinder, hangs from the lid
• Programmes: Eighteen, numbered 1 to 18
• Keys: Preset/timing, power/temperature, function, on/off
• Base: White slab with printed programme list and display

That placement is what makes it work as an infuser: the leaf is in the water, but the mesh keeps it out of the pour. Water goes into the jug, leaf into the infuser, the lid on, the jug on the plate.

Heating, Capacity and Control

The eighteen programmes, read from the print on the base, are: water, flower tea, fruit tea, keep warm, medicinal, porridge, soup, dessert, coffee, steam, hotpot, milk, warm milk, egg, noodles, disinfect, pasteurize and cutlose — the last is printed as a word in the supplier's own artwork and is left as printed rather than interpreted.

Together they describe an appliance built for a Chinese kitchen, where a glass pot of this kind is used for tonics and congees as much as for tea.

The 800 W element is the one electrical figure published. No capacity, no temperature range and no programme duration is given in the listing, so none is stated here beyond the eighteen names.

The function key steps through the eighteen programmes printed on the base; the preset and timing key sets a delay, and the power and temperature key sets the heat.

Who It Fits and How It Pours

The names run from water and flower tea through fruit tea, keep warm, medicinal, porridge, soup, dessert, coffee and on to the end of the list - a table of what the appliance is expected to cook, not a table of temperatures.

That distinction is worth keeping in view: eighteen programmes is breadth of task, not precision of control. The listing publishes no temperature and no duration behind any of them, so the names are what can be described, and the figures behind them are questions rather than facts.

• The display shows the chosen code while the programme runs
• The element is the one electrical figure the listing gives
• Four keys rather than a dial
• The white parts are moulded rather than painted

What's in the Box

HKM-6580179 ships in one carton with the the product and the parts listed above. Check each item against the list before the first use, and keep the carton for the first month in case something has to go back.

Color and Finish

Wash the jug by hand with warm water and a soft brush; the infuser needs a brush to clear leaf from the mesh. Neither the jug nor the base is dishwasher safe.

For mineral film, stand a little white vinegar and water in the jug and rinse twice.

Care and Maintenance

Wipe the base with a dry cloth and keep water out of the coupling and the key area. The jug should not be set down hot on a cold stone surface: borosilicate tolerates a wide band of temperature, not a shock across a wet worktop.

Store the lid off so the jug and the infuser dry through. The base is a slab rather than a disc, so it wants open counter: the front edge has to stay clear for the keys and the display.

Leave height above the lid for lifting the jug off, and keep the plate dry, since the keys are printed contacts on its face.

The programme list is printed across the front edge of the base in two rows of nine, and the code for the one in use shows in a small red window between the keys.
