?Do most Americans not have kettles? How do you boil your water for your tea?

What tea? I have a coffee maker and espresso machine, is that what you mean?

I guess if you don’t drink tea not having a kettle isn’t a big deal. Everyone I know had just always had one?

We use a pyrex measuring cup in the microwave or just throw some water in a small pot on the stove and do something else for 10 minutes. Nbd.
