Hi all
Posting in AIBU for traffic mostly, hoping to hear if anyone uses the breville hotcup dispenser and sings it's praises?
I'm doing all I can to help my energy bills - switching everything off at the wall (even my wifi when I'm out the house!), but I still feel like I can do more.
My DF has just bought one of these, and says it'll basically pay for itself with what it saves on the bills, I think because it only boils what you need and is faster? But then, to make it faster surely it uses more energy to speed up the heating process?
This is the one I'm looking at getting: www.amazon.co.uk/Breville-HotCup-Water-Dispenser-Litre/dp/B001L5SSGQ/ref=asc_df_B001L5SSGQ/?amp%3BlinkCode=df0&%3Bhvadid=231909287202&%3Bhvnetw=g&%3Bhvrand=6538117289364035242&%3Bhvdev=c&%3Bhvlocphy=1006864&%3Bhvtargid=pla-385930872950&%3Bpsc=1&%3Bth=1&tag=mumsnet&ascsubtag=mnforum-21
Keen to hear any thoughts / opinions - is it worth it or am I just getting a bit obsessive 🙃
AIBU?
To ask whether the Breville HotCup hot water dispenser is worth it?

What about filling a large 2 litre Thermos with boiling water and just using that throughout the day?

If you're having that many cups of tea, boil the kettle once and use a teapot. A good china teapot with a teacosy keeps it warm for hours.

I think I'd keep my kettle for hot water bottles and pasta etc - but that would be used a lot less as mostly it's used for cups of tea - I have about 4 - 5 a day and if my partner is here then we're looking more at like 10 cups of tea a day between us.
I'm a bit put off the idea of buying one if it makes the tea taste funny, I only drink tea and I'm quite picky about it as it is!
