FAQs

What material is the Tanness Camping Kettle made from?

The kettle is constructed from durable stainless steel for both the body and the base.

How do I know when the water is boiling?

The kettle features an integrated whistling spout that will sound an alert when the water reaches boiling point.

Can I use this kettle on an induction hob?

Yes, the Tanness Camping Kettle is designed to be compatible with induction hobs, as well as gas stoves and open fire.

What is the capacity of the kettle?

The kettle has a capacity of 3 liters.

Is the handle heat-resistant?

The handle is designed to be ergonomic. While it offers some insulation, it is advisable to use a pot holder or glove when handling the kettle directly after boiling, as it can become hot.

How should I clean the kettle?

Allow the kettle to cool, then wash the interior with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can I put this kettle directly on campfire coals?

Yes, the stainless steel construction allows it to be used directly on open fire, including campfire coals, provided it is placed stably.

Troubleshooting

Kettle is not whistling

Ensure the lid and spout cap are fully closed and secure. Check the whistle opening for any obstructions. Make sure there is sufficient water in the kettle.

Water is boiling but the kettle doesn't whistle

The whistle may be partially blocked. Allow the kettle to cool and carefully inspect the whistle mechanism for debris. Rinse with warm water if needed.

Uneven heating or slow boiling

Ensure the kettle is placed centrally on the heat source. For induction, confirm the hob is compatible with stainless steel cookware and the kettle base diameter is appropriate for the burner.

Discoloration on the base

This is normal for stainless steel when exposed to heat, especially over open flames or high gas settings. It does not affect performance. Clean with a stainless steel cleaner if desired.
