With a capacity of 7 litres, it is ideal for anyone who wants to serve hot drinks easily and reliably at parties or events. Whether mulled wine, tea, punch or hot water, the mulled wine kettle ensures quick preparation and a cosy atmosphere.

Points
As part of our practical test, we tested the mulled wine cooker in detail and documented the results using the specified test methods. The product impresses with its precise temperature control, which is infinitely adjustable in the range from 30 to 110 degrees. With an output of 1500 watts , the cooker heats up quickly so that drinks are ready in no time at all. Thanks to the drip-free tap, pouring is clean and effortless. Operation is simple and intuitive, but the container cannot be emptied completely via the tap – about one litre remains in the tank. The lockable lid ensures safety as it prevents hot liquids from spilling. Cleaning is also straightforward, as all surfaces are easily accessible. The robust stainless steel housing prevents unwanted flavours from seeping into the drinks. With a capacity of 7 litres and an integrated level indicator, the mulled wine kettle is ideal for parties or family celebrations. If required, customers can also choose the 10-litre model.

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.6 stars. In some cases, the height of the spout is criticised. On the other hand, the heating capacity, functionality and ease of use are emphasised positively. We were able to confirm the positive points in our practical test. However, we also noticed that about one litre of the contents could not be tapped.
Prices of up to €120 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €50 . With a price of €49.99, the Juskys mulled wine maker is currently in the most favourable price segment. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
