The free kettle trick I use to cut £25 a month off my energy bills
28.03.2022 - 18:07 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
The average recommended intake of tea a day is three to four cups. But as a northern Brit who’s answer to everything is ‘pop the kettle on’, I’ve usually drunk two cups before I’ve even started work for the day.
Yorkshire tea, milk and a teaspoon of honey is how I take mine, but with energy bills on the rise, I thought I might have to consider sacrificing the odd cuppa to cut costs.
However, there’s way to half the energy your kettle uses, which could save me 84p a day - or £25 a month.

Let’s say I have eight cups of tea a day. I know it sounds a lot, but I work from home, and a wander over to the kettle offers a much-needed screen break from my eight hour shifts.
It costs, on average, 21p to boil an electric kettle, which would cost £1.68 a day based on me making eight cuppas.
This is based on the assumption that it takes 4.5 minutes to boil a full two-litre kettle with a power rating of 3kW, the Express reports.
Naturally, this figure will differentiate depending on the kettle’s water capacity, power rating, efficiency and the cost of electricity in your area. But I’ll use averages for the purpose of this piece.
So, the question is, how do I halve my energy use on my kettle? Make twice as much tea.
Instead of making one cup of tea, I make two at a time. Then, I get a coaster and place it on top of brew number two to trap the heat in.
