  • I live alone but most kettles boil a minimum half litre - a bit too for a mug of tea. I put the rest in a flask.

    You can pick them up for a £1 or £2 in a car boot sale or charity shop. I think you can pick up stainless steel ones for around £5 new now anyway - a screw top is longer lasting than a push button type in my experience.

    Electric kettles dont keep tea hot.
    They boil just plain water and then you must store the hot water somewhere else such as a flask as suggested by A fiend for life or use it at once to make your drink.
    I think maybe the way you have worded your question is confusing and we are not really understanding what it is you want to know.
