Edit: pu’er, black, green, white tea. Love it all and drink it more than I drink coffee. No need to start a culture war; taste is as individual as humour.

Exactly. I usually microwave a cup and then throw in the teabag. If gas stoves were not so inefficient I wpuld heat it on there but it takes about 5 times as long as in a microwave and tastes the same.
Get an electric kettle. Tea should be brewed at an appropriate temperature for its style, and microwaving the water is inaccurate. Electric kettle will get you the right temp every time nearly as fast.
The fact the water is boiling will also get you the right temp.
You can fuck right off with your electric kettle elitism. I won’t buy something that will get used 2 times per month if I have everything I need to make myself tea already.
Hey man, use a kettle, I got no problem with using a purpose made tool. I just hate the immediate, blind snobbery towards microwaves as if they somehow taint the tea, and not the brewers lack of care.
