Pour-over coffee and loose-leaf tea both benefit from having water slowly added to them. Attempting this with a traditional kettle can be difficult since the spout is too large. An electric gooseneck kettle provides an even water stream, making it easy to bloom the ingredients for your favorite hot beverages or food items. Read on to find the best electric gooseneck kettle for your kitchen.
