I can get this put together if anyone else is interested.
The Bonavita Electric Kettle is $49.00 at Amazon.

If five people are interested, it would cost $10.00 each to play.
If ten people ....$5.00 each....etc.
Plus shipping on to the next user...
I can do the math, so if more than five sign up, I will divide the $49 up by however many people sign up.

If you are interested at all, post on this thread, and I will see how we are doing in a week or so...
Does that sound right?
Heck, I will even try to learn how to make a video if this happens....

I'd get in, just to make this happen so that we can see Susan's attempt at video.   ;D   But this is the kettle I already own and love.

I use this at school--it's really efficient and fun to use.

Good luck with the Acadamy nominations next year!  ;)

Personally I'm only interested in the plain electric one.
If someone else wants to take lead and get us the temp controlled one, I would sign up for the roadshow myself and let this one lapse.

Oh fiddle faddle.  The Variable Temp Bonavita Electric Kettle is about $90.
If there is more interest in that one, I can still be the lead on it.
Anyone interested in either or both should/can state their preferences and we can figure it out later.
I don't know what the max is that anyone is interested in putting into a roadshow, so I will just sit back now and take any/all comments on what model would interest people and at what "price point".

Seems to me that the plain electric would be $10 if we had 5 people;  $5. if we had 10.
And the variable would be $18 if we had 5 and $9 if we had 10.

I can figure that much out on my fingers;  after that I'll have to take off my socks....

So, John, looks like you and I are the only ones interested, so I am cancelling this and moving on.

Yeah...

I was thinking I'd be able to compare it to the Tak and offer the up sides of each to help people decide that might be on the fence or just to speak to curiosity in general of the differences.

Next time....

And I was gonna compare it to the Buono, but I guess most club members have "been there ....done that..."

What, again?????
An astrologer once told me my tendency to get where I am going later than most was due to so many of my planets being in retrograde when I was born.....As good an excuse as any I guess.....

I was in on the non-PID Bonavita Kettle roadshow and I did like it.  The PID Bonavita electric kettle interests me. 

The PID Bonavita might be more tempting than I had thought....I find myself chosing the start temp on my pours out of the Buono at whatever ...203 one day, 205 another, 206 another.  Being able to set it and then assess it based on the different choices might be a more interesting experience.....Hmmmm....I may have to have a chat with Santa....

What, wait?  You move pretty fast for someone who's always late to the party.  Maybe it's because your catching up.  I feel like I'm about to be passed.  ;D

Yup, making up for lost time and having fun doing it !!!!

Did I mention the $5.00 3 cup Primula moka pot I picked up at Ross yesterday?  It made a positively mediocre cup this morning with the Black Tie
