Efficient, quick boiling hot water dispenser ideal for single cups, especially beneficial for elderly or those with limited strength. Easy to use, safe, and energy-saving but limited capacity and fixed water volume.

Easy to use and super quick.
Bought this mainly for safety reasons but it does an amazing job at making a quick hot drink. It must save on electricity consumption as its a lot faster than our standard electric kettle. Good for elderly people which is one of the reasons we purchased it and at a good price.

Great appliance
Bought this for an elderly relative and he loves it as he’s physically disabled and this removes the danger of having to lift the kettle up etc, I am more than happy with this product.
Drew
Safe and efficient
Bought on behalf of my elderly mum who was beginning to find lifting a kettle difficult. Heats up very quickly. Good price, This is much safer and easier for her. This model doesn’t adjust the temperature or volume of water but machines with those features are much more expensive. This does exactly what is needed and my mum is very pleased with it.

Thank you for your enquiry. Milton can help to sanitise the water dispenser, however it is not designed to remove limescale. For descaling, we recommend following the descaling instructions in the user manual and using a suitable kettle/descaling solution. Regular descaling is particularly important in hard water areas to help maintain the appliance's performance.
Breville HotCup VKJ142 is designed to dispense approximately 250 ml of water per cycle, which is suitable for a standard mug-sized drink.
Breville VKJ142 HotCup does not need to be kept switched on all day. The appliance heats and dispenses one cup of hot water on demand when you press the dispense button.
For safety and energy-saving purposes, we would recommend switching the appliance off when it is not going to be used for an extended period.
Breville VKJ142 hot water dispenser has a 1.5-litre water tank, which allows you to prepare approximately 5–6 cups per full fill, based on a standard dispense of around 250 ml per cup.
The unit heats and dispenses hot water on demand for each serving, making it convenient to prepare multiple drinks.
Hi Mel,
Breville VKJ142 HotCup Water Dispenser - Black 197/9099
The cord is 70 cm long.
Thank you for using Q&A
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.
