I still have a soft spot for a traditional kettle, but after testing a range of hot water dispensers in my own kitchen, I can see why they’re becoming such a popular alternative. The best ones delivered near boiling water in seconds, whether I wanted a single mug of tea or enough to fill a bowl for oats or noodles.

The company does mix things up, hosting mid-year keynotes every now and then to announce new products, especially when those products aren’t the latest flagship iPhones. The March event is just the latest such example. Apple…
