Fellow Stagg EKG Pro Pour Over Kettle

Before first use, rinse the inside of the kettle with warm water and discard. Place the kettle on the base and plug in. The kettle will power on with a press of the front dial.

The Stagg EKG Pro has a full-color LCD screen operated via a front press-and-rotate dial. On first power-on, set your preferred temperature unit (°F or °C) and language (English, French, or Spanish). Set the clock if you plan to use the auto-on scheduling feature.

Temperature range: 104–212°F (40–100°C), adjustable in 1-degree increments. The PID controller maintains your set temperature once reached. Turn the dial to select temperature, press to confirm, and the kettle begins heating. When water reaches your set temperature, the kettle will chime (if enabled) and hold at that temperature until you turn hold mode off.

Do not use the EKG Pro with anything other than water — it is not rated for milk or other liquids. Never submerge the kettle or base in water.

Setting Temperature

Press and rotate the front dial to scroll to your desired temperature. Common brewing temperatures: pour-over and V60 — 195–205°F (90–96°C); lighter roasts benefit from the higher end, darker roasts from the lower end. AeroPress — 175–185°F (79–85°C). Tea — varies by type: green 160–175°F, black 195–205°F, herbal 205–212°F.

Hold Mode

Hold mode keeps the water at your set temperature for 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes after reaching temp. Access hold mode settings through the menu. This is useful for long pour-over sessions, tea service, or when you fill the kettle ahead of your brew time.

Auto-On Scheduling

Set the kettle to heat to a specific temperature at a specific time each morning using the scheduling feature. Set the clock first (hold dial and navigate), then set the schedule time and temperature through the menu. The kettle will automatically begin heating at the scheduled time.

Altitude Mode

At higher altitudes, water boils below 212°F. The altitude mode prevents the kettle from over-boiling by adjusting the maximum temperature setting to match your elevation. Access through the menu and enter your altitude in feet or meters.

WiFi and Firmware Updates

The Stagg EKG Pro has WiFi connectivity for firmware updates via the Fellow Updater app. Note: the app does not provide remote control or temperature adjustment — it is used only for downloading firmware updates. Connect to WiFi through the menu settings.

Precision Pouring

The counterbalanced handle shifts the center of mass toward your hand, reducing wrist fatigue during long pours. The low-flow gooseneck spout delivers a slow, controlled, directional stream — essential for even saturation in pour-over methods. Pour at a slow, steady pace in circular motions from a low height (2–3cm above the bed) for best results.

After Each Use

Empty any remaining water. Wipe the exterior with a soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or sponges. The kettle base contains electrical components — never submerge either the base or kettle in water.

Descaling

Mineral deposits will form inside the kettle over time, particularly in hard water areas. Descale monthly or when you notice white deposits inside. Fill the kettle with a citric acid-based descaling solution (1 tsp citric acid per cup of water) and let soak for 30–60 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Do not use vinegar. Run a full kettle of clean water before brewing after descaling.

Lid and Spout

Wipe the spout tip and lid interior with a damp cloth. Do not put the lid or kettle in the dishwasher.

Kettle Not Heating

Ensure the kettle is properly seated on the base and the base is plugged into a live outlet. Make sure the lid is on — some models require the lid to be closed to activate heating.

Temperature Not Holding Accurately

Check that hold mode is enabled. If the temperature consistently reads lower than set, the kettle may need descaling — scale buildup reduces heating efficiency.

Chime Not Sounding

Chime volume and on/off are configurable in the menu. Navigate to the sound settings and enable/adjust the chime volume.

WiFi Not Connecting

Ensure you are connecting to a 2.4GHz WiFi network — the EKG Pro is not compatible with 5GHz-only networks. Move closer to your router during initial setup.
