HKM-6973395 Digital Glass Electric Tea Thermos Flask 2.7L with Temperature Control and Boil-Dry Protection

HKM-6973395 · Electric Kettles · Brewing Chamber on a Steel Body, 2.7 L

A Brewing Chamber Above a Steel Body

HKM-6973395 is built in two stacked parts. A glass brewing chamber with a central infuser sits on top of a stainless body that holds the water; the base heats through the lower vessel and the tea brews in the glass above it.

That arrangement is unusual and it solves a specific thing: you brew in glass, where the colour is visible, but the heated volume sits in steel, where it is not fragile. A 0.8 L mark on the glass shows how much water the chamber takes.

Total capacity is 2.7 L. The body carries a display and four marked temperatures for milk, honey, tea and coffee.

At a Glance

• Type — tea flask with a glass brewing chamber
• Capacity — 2.7 L total, 0.8 L marked on the chamber
• Upper section — glass chamber, stainless infuser column
• Lower section — stainless body with digital display
• Temperatures — 40, 60, 80 and 90 °C presets
• Safety — boil-dry protection

Materials and Construction

The glass chamber is clear from rim to base, with a perforated stainless column through the middle for the leaf. The lower body is stainless, coated outside, with the display set into the front face rather than the base — so the temperature is readable while the unit stands on a counter.

The base is a separate heated plate with a touch strip. The two vessels stack, which keeps the footprint small for a 2.7 L capacity.

• Glass chamber with a removable stainless infuser column
• Stainless lower body, display on the front face
• Stacked construction, shared heated base

How It Is Used

Fill the lower body, set the temperature, and let it heat. Water rises into the chamber through the column, infuses against the leaf, and the brewed tea stays warm in the body below.

Because the display is on the body rather than on the base, you can see the temperature without bending down. The four presets cover the usual range: 40 for milk, 60 for honey and delicate tea, 80 for green and white, 90 for black.

The presets are the part that shapes daily use: 40, 60, 80 and 90 °C are named on the strip, so the chamber can be filled with water held well below a boil for green tea, or near it for a dark leaf, without a thermometer. The stainless body below is the reservoir; the glass chamber above is where the leaf meets the water, and the central infuser keeps the leaf from floating free.

How It Works

Temperature control here means a set point, not just a boil switch. That matters for green tea, which turns bitter at a full boil, and for honey, which should not be overheated.

Boil-dry protection cuts the element if the body runs low. It is a safety net: it does not replace watching a first fill.

The stack is tall and narrow, so it fits a counter corner where a wide kettle would not: the body is a column, the chamber sits on its neck, and the whole thing is barely wider than the base plate. Leave height above the chamber for lifting it off, and keep the strip clear of the spout side.

Placement and Use

The unit is tall because it stacks. Measure the clearance under a wall cabinet before choosing a spot, and keep the base on a level, dry surface.

• Check height clearance — the stacked form is taller than a kettle
• Dry base contacts before seating
• Keep the touch strip clear of splashes

Hand wash the glass chamber. The stainless body can be rinsed, but the base must not be immersed.

The 0.8 L mark on the chamber is the working limit for leaf and water together, which is roughly two cups of brewed tea per fill.

Included and Optional

One finish is sold: a dark body with a bright collar at the joint and clear glass above. The contrast is deliberate — the glass has to look like glass, and the body has to look like something that holds boiling water.

Colours and Finishes

One finish is listed: a grey coated body with a black lid and handle, and clear glass above. The glass is the visual focus; the body behind it is deliberately muted.

On a counter with stainless appliances the grey reads slightly warmer; against white it reads as a single dark object.

Two materials, two routines. The stainless body descales with vinegar when a film appears at the element; the glass chamber and its infuser are rinsed after every use, because leaf that dries on the mesh is far harder to shift than leaf that is still wet. The touch strip is wiped, never washed.

Care and Maintenance

Rinse the infuser column and the glass chamber after every use. Leaf left in the perforations dries hard and blocks the flow on the next brew.

Descale the lower body monthly in hard-water areas. Scale on the stainless floor is the usual reason a unit like this takes longer to reach temperature than it did when new.
