Customers Say
The hot water dispenser is praised for its convenience, speed, and ease of use, especially for those with mobility issues. However, some users wish for adjustable water amounts and noted that it doesn't always boil water as hot as a kettle.

Breville VKJ142 is designed to dispense boiling water. The water reaches 100°C before it is released into the cup.
Breville VKJ142 dispenses a fixed 250 ml of water per cycle, and this has always been the case for this model.
The clearance between the drip tray and the nozzle on the VKJ142 is approximately 13.5 cm. You can also gain extra space by removing the drip tray, allowing room for taller cups.
To keep your Breville VKJ142 HotCup working efficiently, it’s important to descale it regularly, and even more often if you live in a hard‑water area. Detailed descaling instructions are also available in the User Manual. You can descale your HotCup using either a proprietary descaling product or vinegar/citric acid.
Breville VKJ142 HotCup water dispenser does not have a manual stop function. Once you press the On/Off button, the appliance automatically dispenses a pre‑measured amount of hot water and then switches itself off near the end of the cycle. There is no control to pause or stop the water flow mid‑dispense.
Breville HotCup VKJ142 works similarly to a kettle in terms of heating water, so limescale can still build up over time—especially in hard water areas. It’s not inherently more resistant to limescale than a kettle because the heating element is still in contact with water.
Hi Oat,
The VKJ142 dispenses water at near-boiling temperature, and does not allow for precise temperature control or measurement. For your baby’s safety, we suggest using a freshly boiled kettle and allowing the water to cool to the appropriate temperature before mixing.
Hi KAZ,
Breville VKJ142 is designed to automatically dispense approximately 250ml of water per activation, which is roughly one standard cup. Once this amount is dispensed, the unit will automatically stop, so there’s no need to manually turn it off after each use.
Hi Muji,
Breville products are designed and developed in the UK and U.S. by our engineers and our development team and manufactured in the People's Republic of China.
Hi Pastel,
The kettle part of the unit weighs 1075g when empty and 2575g when filled to the maximum 1.5L mark. If preferred, you can fill the unit using a separate jug or cup rather than removing it to fill directly from the tap. I hope this helps.
