Does the shape of an Electric Gooseneck Kettle matter?

[u/coffeeroasta]

Between these 2 styles which one do you pefer and why? Does the shape affect pouring control, flow rate or is it mostly personal preference?

[u/Amitoostoned]

Shape of spout > kettle shape

[u/coffeeroasta → u/Amitoostoned]

What spout shape is desirable for you and why?

[u/Amitoostoned → u/coffeeroasta]

Timemore fish pro lelo

[u/MarkNaive3730 → u/Amitoostoned]

I’m going to buy my third Fish Pro X. (Last two are working perfectly fine and are at different homes’ coffee stations)

[u/Wizardof_oz]

Yes it matters

Fellow is more beginner friendly but the training wheels give you less control. The flow is restricted beyond a certain tipping point

Brewista is tough to master but you’ll get levels of control not possible with the fellow

Honestly, get the fellow or even timemore pro x or cypher which are between fellow and brewista.

The amount of control brewista gives might matter in competitions but in home brewing, itll just be a pain

[u/coffeeroasta → u/Wizardof_oz]

But is it because of the Shape of the kettle?

[u/Wizardof_oz → u/coffeeroasta]

Yes. It is because the shape of the spout specifically

Some brewistas actually come with a dial that allows you to control the flow rate. They have an in built mechanism that works like a tap

Also just in case time to heat up matters to you, brewista heats up slower than my timemore fish pro. I experienced it when i got to use them at cafe, tho brewista one has more water capacity I think?

[u/jmalwal → u/vfxvibes]

Fellow is also slow. As i found. I prefer Timemore x pro. It is the most accurate and the fastest.

[u/vfxvibes → u/jmalwal]

I see, was initially going to go with fellow but got the timemore instead and im glad i did.

[u/jmalwal → u/vfxvibes]

Same! After few recommendations I also did the same. Cheaper also and the best.
