Small improvements to good equipment always quietly deliver a more complete experience for users, whether they notice it or not. Timemore is showing they’re truly committed to this through continuously upgrading their coffee brewing equipment!
In 2024, the Timemore Pro electric kettle launched for professional competition-level pour-over brewing. The adjustable pour rate from 0.5ml to ~30ml/second allows for extremely gentle pouring or quick agitation. The newly designed handle creates a 180-degree angle with the arm for a very comfortable pouring feel. The thumb rest position is angled for easy grip control.
In 2026, the upgraded Pro X electric kettle applies Temp X technology, allowing temperature control accuracy of ±0.5°C, making it the most precisely temperature-controlled kettle among current electric pour-over kettles. Additionally, the thumb rest is covered with a wood-grain finish, making it more user-friendly and attractive.
IS THE ±0.5°C ACCURACY ACCURATE TO SPECIFICATIONS AND WHAT DOES IT DO?
On the I’m not Barista YouTube channel, they used a ProGrade 4-channel electronic thermometer with 0.1°C accuracy to check the actual temperature when using the Timemore Pro X electric kettle.
The target temperature was set to 92°C. The result was that 10 seconds after the kettle displayed reaching this level, the actual temperature inside the kettle was 91.1°C. The variance dropped by 0.9°C.
Perhaps this ±0.5°C margin of error from Timemore was measured in a standard laboratory environment different from actual use. So let’s consider it a reference specification.
The actual temperature inside the Timemore Pro X kettle drops 0.9 degrees compared to the setting. This specification likely varies depending on ambient temperature and altitude of the area of use.
Compared to the actual drop of about 3.5°C on the previous Timemore Fish Pro version, the Pro X’s accuracy has improved tremendously. However, what practical difference does this precise temperature control actually make?
To understand this better, consider this real-world experience:
The Ethiopia Bensa Hamasho Natural coffee you just bought is roasted very light, so the water temperature needed to optimize flavor might need to be 96°C.
If you’re setting this target on the Timemore 600ml kettle or the Fish Pro version, the actual water temperature is quite likely only 93°C. Your coffee will lack floral notes and its flavor will be less robust.
But if you use the Pro X, you’ll get a cup of coffee bright with citrus and vibrant aroma. This difference is clear and very easy to perceive.
“Therefore, precision in water temperature control can create a more accurate standard for users”
If you’re using other kettle models, consider increasing the target temperature by 3 to 4°C to ensure you get the desired results. This number isn’t precise and may vary depending on the environment. Generally, this is a temporary solution if you don’t want to upgrade to a new kettle.
SO WHO IS THE TIMEMORE PRO X ELECTRIC KETTLE FOR?
- Professional baristas: Those in the profession who want to use accurate standards shouldn’t have a makeshift mindset. Use the best equipment within your means to ensure beverage consistency.
- Serious home coffee brewers: Many people brewing coffee at home are even more serious than baristas at cafes. Having brewing equipment that meets high standards is something they consider essential.
NEW FEATURES OF THE TIMEMORE SMART PRO X ELECTRIC KETTLE
- Wood grain finish on the angled thumb rest: This detail doesn’t make a difference in grip feel but makes the kettle’s appearance more user-friendly.
The angled thumb rest is covered with wood grain on the Timemore Fish Pro X electric kettle (the previous Pro version had a flat plastic surface).
- Maximum spout flow rate around 28ml/s: The previous Fish Pro version had a maximum pour rate around 30ml/s. It may be difficult to perceive this difference in practice without using an electronic scale to check this detail. However, with the naked eye you can see the Pro X spout opening is slightly shorter than the Pro version.
With the naked eye you can notice the Timemore Pro X spout opening is shorter than the Pro version. However, the flow control experience is still excellent.

NOTES WHEN USING TIMEMORE POUR OVER ELECTRIC KETTLE
- Don’t fill past the MAX line marked inside the kettle. Hot water will overflow when you boil water past this line
- When the kettle has too little water, the temperature control feature will no longer be accurate due to fast heating speed and strong momentum.
- Don’t wash the kettle under running water, always keep the kettle base dry
- In high-altitude areas of Vietnam, the boiling temperature is lower than 100°C: Cao Bang, Moc Chau, Son La, Lam Dong… This is due to low pressure leading to changes in boiling temperature, not from manufacturing defects.
