Whistling Kettle

The Smeg Stovetop Whistling Kettle is suitable for use with a variety of kitchen stovetops, from gas to electricity, ceramic and induction. So as long as you’re equipped with a gas cooker, South Africa’s load shedding won’t spoil your brew.

The Smeg whistling kettle will produce a loud, high-pitched whistle sound when the water is at boiling point – a handy indication designed to reduce dry boiling. So you can tend to your guests or grab a slice of cake before removing from the stove to relish a delicious steaming brew.

A popping sound coming from your stovetop whistling kettle is most likely caused by the water hardness. When heated, the hardness becomes less soluble, leading to increased aeration. The intense bubble popping is the culprit responsible for the popcorn sound in your kettle.

All Smeg products are engineered to stand the test of time. Thanks to the lack of electronic components, your whistling kettle will typically outlive its electrical competitors, providing delicious brews for many years to come.
