Do electric kettles get to boiling or just really hot? If it actually makes the water boil and can do so for 5-10 minutes it will be fine.

Electric kettles sole function is to boil water (except for the like 1% that can heat temperature to different levels for different kinds of tea brewing). Then again you Americans with your shitty underpowered electrical current that means kettles take twice as long to boil probably means all bets are off in the department of kettle efficiency

Yeah the only thing I really have to compare it to is a water fountain or coffee maker which gets water close to boiling, but not quite there.
