Kettle With Bubul Whistle Alessi

The Bulbul kettle presents a new way of operating this object almost as if he invited to play by sliding it on the kitchen surface. Bulbul reveals the extraordinary ability of Achille Castiglioni to transfer the characteristics and functions to the project from objects belonging to completely different spheres.

Bulbul is suitable for all discs; We recommend a medium/low flame on the stove and average intensity on the induction hob. Remove the lid and fill it with water maximally to the bottom of the beak so that the increased amount of water does not damage the whistle during cooking. Close the lid, put the whistle and put the kettle on the heat source. Wait until the water begins to cook and activates the sound of the whistle, then remove the kettle from the plate, wait a moment so that the last clouds of the hot pair left the whistle, remove the whistle and you can pour. Watch out for hot water and kettle elements.
