Turn the burner on high. Get two small pots and put the desired amount of water (split in two) into them. Then put lids on them. It also helps to put something with rough edges so the vapor bubbles can cling to the new surface. It works faster if your are on a mountain or somewhere where there is low air pressure. And, since we all know how time goes so slow when we wait for it to pass, don't sit and watch it.

The fastest way to boil water in the kitchen is to use a stovetop kettle on high heat. Make sure to cover the pot with a lid to retain the heat and reduce the boiling time. Alternatively, using an electric kettle can also be a quick and efficient way to boil water.

The Results show the fastest way to boil water is using the closed electric kettle. This experiment was preformed using the same amount amount of water for each heating device (750 ml.) resulted in different boiling times. The fastest boiling time on average was the closed electric kettle with the open metal pot only 7 seconds longer. In fact, the time was so close between the two devices that on one trial the open pot on the electric stove was slightly faster.

My original thought (before research) was that the microwave would be the fastest way to boil water. This device came in as the slowest for each trial.

The average time for the fastest device (the electric kettle) was 4.55 minutes. Second place was the open metal pot on the electric stove which averaged 4.62 minutes. The slowest device (in last place) was the glass container in the microwave which averaged 5.69 minutes.

This experiment supported the hypothesis that the closed electric kettle would boil water the fastest. However, the times were so close for all three methods that I would only support not using the microwave to boil water due to the slower time and possible increased use of electricity.

If I were to repeat the experiment, I might try to add another device or change the closed top electric kettle to an open top. This would help to determine why the electric was fastest. Was it because the container was closed or because the heating element was inside the container with the water? I conclude that both factors make water boil faster.

The most efficient way to boil water is with an electric kettle. Surprisingly, the microwave oven uses the most electricity and its relative efficiency gets worse the more water you're heating. The microwave potentially uses even more than the stove top (depending on pot-size to burner-size match, using a lid on the pot, etc).

The overall efficiency of the electric kettle can be drastically reduced by boiling more water than you need and letting the remainder go cold, so try to put only as much as you need in the kettle without being below the minimum water level. A good tip is to use your target containers as measuring devices to fill the kettle (e.g., if you're making two cups of tea, use a cup to measure two lots of water in to the kettle) rather than just filling from the tap and guessing.

Cleaning your electric kettle with boiling water and vinegar removes mineral deposits on the element that can reduce its energy efficiency.

take on ordinary mug and pour a little bit of olive oil in it.then crack 1 egg into the mug, and put it in the microwave oven for one minute.

your results should then come out to something fluffy.it will look like the egg on an eggmcmuffin in mcdonalds.

if it comes out watery and uncooked looking, put it in the micro wave for another 30 seconds.

1 EGG IS MORE THAN IT LOOKS!
