What are thermopot samovars and what are they?

The first samovars appeared in Tula in the 1730s. Since then, they have gradually spread throughout the territory of Russia and neighboring countries. Then their popularity faded a little, and now the fashion for this accessory has returned again. Of course, today's samovars cannot be compared with those that were in past centuries. Modern models are very interesting and varied. One of these are thermopot samovars.

A modern samovar-thermopot is a device that looks like a traditional samovar, but at the same time it is powered by a network. Such a thermopot is intended for boiling a large volume of water (minimum from 3.5 liters).

The thermopot samovar has gained great popularity due to the large number of advantages that almost every model has.

1. It automatically shuts off if there is no water in it.

2. The quality of the brew can be controlled using a special removable filter.

3. Thermopot can maintain water at a given temperature for a certain amount of time.

4. Immediately after the water boils, the samovar turns off automatically.

5. Equipped with indicator lights.

6. The device is absolutely safe, moreover, it is energy efficient.

7. Most of the models have a nice chrome finish.

In addition, it is very convenient to operate both at home and in the office. If a big company is going, then you don't have to boil the kettle several times. It is enough to boil the thermopot samovar and set the mode of maintaining the desired temperature in it. Moreover, such an accessory is very stylish and looks great on the festive table, unlike even the most expensive modern electric kettles.
