How To Use The Volcano Kettle

How To Use The Volcano Kettle The Kelly Kettle® / Volcano Kettle® is easy to use. We recommend that you follow the following five steps when using your Kettle:

  1. Remove base from the bottom of the kettle and place the base on level ground – flat side down. Fill base with combustible material such as newspaper, dry grass or very small tinder.
  2. Remove protective cork from kettle and fill kettle with water. Do not replace the cork. Then place the kettle securely on the base. (Note: If you do not need to carry water in the kettle, we recommend that the Cork be removed entirely rom the kettle as this will ensure that the kettle is not misused)
  3. Light fire through the hole(s) in side of the base and face into wind for extra draught if required.
  4. Insert additional fuel through the chimney (use small twigs for best resultsl).
  5. When the water boils, hold the handle at a 90° angle to the body of the Kettle – then lift Kettle clear of the base. Use handle and chain for pouring.

NOTE:

  • Always remove the cork before lighting the kettle. The cork is only to be used for transporting cold water.
  • Never hold the handle above the chimney when the kettle is lit.
  • Always keep children away from the kettle when in use.
  • Use surplus water to extinguish fire.

"Dear Kelly Kettle Co.

We have used the Large Kelly Kettle every day in the outback for the past 5 weeks.  It has been absolutely brilliant - you can imagine that in the Desert there is no shortage of very dry twigs; leaves; grass etc.  It boils the water so fast that we had to revise our early morning procedures to cope with the speed!  Once again, many thanks.  I am now about to order two more for my friends."
