With my first child, I imagined all sorts of bells and whistles so that it turned out in the end as completely unnecessary and overpriced for the short duration of use. Wating for my husband;) I for this reason then no need for a Auskocher. On my second child I have but now it slammed shut and I must say he has become indispensable for me! Flascherln from the dishwasher, in the vaporizer, 90ml water pure (measured with a Flascherl) and is good ... no longer stand at the stove, wait until the water boils, all Flascherln pure, let boil, the hot Flascherln out fishing again, let stand inverted ... there go before 10 minutes it loose. The only thing that is connected with effort, the descaling is that I need to do every now and then, because we have very hard water. The evaporation in fact forms over time a white film on the Heitz plate in the device (like a kettle).
