Kettle
History
Kelly Kettle The tradition of Ghillie heating up water on the shore for their client’s tea dates back to the late 1800’s in western Ireland. These handmade kettles were made mostly of tin and had very short lives. Further refined by John Ashley Hart of New Zealand who may be inspired by traditional Mongolian has design the chimney or volcano kettle. His ‘Thermette’ kettle was first manufactured in 1929 and was standard issue for New Zealand Army during World War II. The George Marris and Co. of Birmingham, England began making iron bedsteads and brass/copper fern pots in the 1800’s. He began diversifying into other products in about 1906, when the brand name ‘Sirram’ (spelled backwards of his name Marris) appeared first on their picnic sers. There’s a record of meeting between one of the Marris family members and John Ashley Hart after which the first ‘Sirram Volcano Kettle’ appeared. These early copper models carried an inscribed plate which included ‘Registered Design No 731794’. Marris eventually changed the production of the kettles from copper to spun aluminum.

(2) Cast Iron Kettle
This iron kettle was for putting on an iron kitchen range heated by coal or wood or hung directly over an open fire. In the past, it probably used for filtering rather than for boiling water. The material of kettle was then switched from iron to copper because it conducted heat more efficiently. It was one of the great metals and copper was a common of the 19th century. Cast Iron Kettle
(3) Stovetop Kettle
A stovetop kettle is a roughly pitcher shaped metal vessel use to fill water and boil water on a stovetop or hob. Sometimes stove-mounted kettles also have a steam whistle which indicates when the water has reached boiling point. In whistling tea kettles, when the steam build up in the container of the kettle tries to escape, it causes vibrations to occur within the chamber. As the speed of the steam increases, the vibrations become stronger then

    While waiting on the water to boil, retrieve a piece of unknown metal to be identified and record its ID letter and its mass. Once the mass of the unknown metal is recorded, put the metal into the boiling water. While waiting on the water and the metal to achieve the same thermal equilibrium, get a coffee cup and measure its mass. Then pour about 50mL of water into a coffee cup, measure the mass of the water and the coffee cup and then determine the mass of the water alone (mass of water and coffee cup – mass of coffee cup). Record the temperature of the boiling water on the hot plate with the metal and then record the temperature of the water in the coffee cup before adding the metal. Use the string attached to the metal to transfer the metal from the hot water bath to the calorimeter. Using a piece of cardboard to cover the top of the calorimeter, record the temperature of the water in the calorimeter. Repeat the experimental procedure three more…

    Rice Cooker

    In 137, the Japanese Imperial Army sanctioned an automobile-kitchen equipped with a primitive rice cooker. The rice cooker was a rectangular wooden box with two electrodes attached to opposite ends. To cook the rice, the box was filled with washed rice and water, and then a current was applied. This caused the water to boil. When the rice was cooked, the reduction of the water caused an increase in resistanc9e and reduced the heat, then it automatically became a stay-warm state. This method, however, was not suitable for different water qualities or degrees of rice washing and as such varied the amount of heat produced and the end results. It also presented a high risk of electrocution, thus it was not suitable for home cooking.…
