  1.  @DavidRavenMoon  Yes. It's dying out a lot. Though still quite common. Some of the instant coffees are better than others though.

  2. Tea might serve as a gateway to kettles but I think the reason Americans don't have kettles is because Americans don't have kettles. Once you use them, the utility becomes obvious. This explains the growth in sales. When I moved to the US in 2000, the only kettle I could find was some nasty little round plastic thing. The selection is now much improved. The kettle revolution is inevitable.

  3. Europe (and the UK) is technically 230 just FWIW (But yes, the UK does run at 240).

  4. My family visited the US in '80 and liked the drip coffee our emigrant friends made enough that they took back a coffee maker back with them. My Dad borrowed a transformer from work because of the voltage difference. Unfortunately, it burned out after a few months after which it became a prop for my Star Wars toys. Coffee makers were mentioned in "The Good Life" where Margo, who was something of a snob, insisted on using one. Interesting how the times change.
