And make sure to get one with different temperature settings, not just boil.

Being able to do 180° exactly instead of just guessing has been a game changer for white tea.

    I was about to say that water can't reach 180°C at normal conditions but then I remembered that Fahrenheit exists...

    Yes but what about 180 Kelvin?

    Then you'd have a little freezer I think. Isn't the freezing point of water (at normal atmosphere) approx. 274 K?

    You can superheat water, but probably not that much at home.

    I actually looked for one in °C but the only ones I found had big stupid display screens. I just wanted one with 5-6 simple presets without adding unnecessary points of failure.

    To be fair, I didn't look that hard though. I wasn't willing to spend that much time and the place I order my tea from labels all the recommended temps in °F anyway.
