<p>Device for supplying hot water, in particular for the preparation of a drink, comprising a reservoir with heating unit with which a quantity of water in the reservoir is kept at a desired temperature, and a control unit which controls the heating unit depending on signals supplied by a tem perature sensor present at or in the reservoir. After the device is switched on, the water present in the reservoir is heated to the boiling point. After detection of the boiling point, the control unit determines a maximum temperature at a predetermined distance below the boiling point and the water in the reservoir is then maintained at a desired temperature which is not higher than the determined maximum temperature.</p> |
