Water Heating Mechanisms!

[TheMixer]

I'd like to here what you all use to heat your water for green tea/matcha. I am using this:

I like it because I don't make matcha in my kitchen, I have a little tea-table in the corner of my room. I make all my tea there. I just keep some bottles of water and this bad boy, and no other heating sources are necessary. It boils cold water in about 20 seconds then I just let it sit in there to cool.

However, I recently stumbled upon this, and it might be a purchase for me.

I mean, I am a bit OCD about green tea. If tea says it should be brewed at 75 degrees C, I want my water to be 75! I don't like eyeballing or guessing water temp when it comes to matcha. Anyone use it? How is it? How many temperature settings are there? Does it allow you to set a specific temperature, or...?

I think water boiled on a gas range with an enameled or glass kettle tastes much better than electric kettle water. I have both stainless steel lined electric kettle similar to utilitea and a zojirushi zutto. Never use them..

There is an upgrade coming out http://www.teachat.com/viewtopic.php?t=9343 but you may not be able to last that long. Seems to be the best electric kettle out there.

Run to your nearest Asian market and pick up a Zojirushi water kettle. You can set the heat to 145, 195, and 205. Which is coincidentially, Gyokuro, Sencha (with a little cooling), and Bancha/Houjicha temperature.
That and a good yu-samashi (or if you're ghetto like me, just have a bunch of spouted measure cups), and you're set.
