boil it, chuck away, boil it, chuck away, boil it.....until it seems OK. If it carries on, get another new kettle or see the doctor about your sensitive taste buds.

same as the last post, but remember to put fresh water in each time you use it

Buy a metal one....

How do you know what plastic taste like? Do you habitually eat plastic? lol

Repeated boiled salt water rinses might do it as well, but rinse out well with cold water afterwards.

For Figure,you should try tasting,it may take the taste of the other brown stuff coming from your mouth.

"How to remove the plastic taste from any new kettle!"

Method 1)
a) Fill the new kettle with 1 liter of cool fresh water¨
b) Add 1 teaspoon of salt in to the 1 liter of water & stir it well w/ a wooden spoon!
c) Boil this salted water & then empty it in to the kitchen sink!
d) Thoroughly rinse out the kettle out & fill the kettle w/ the same amount of 1 liter of cool fresh water that was used for method 1 detailed in # (1a) above but w/ no salt!
e) Re-fil the kettle w/ fresh water to make your coffee / tea & drink it - then you'll find that the plastic taste in your drink has gone!

You may need to do method 1 above twice or three times for all the plastic taste to be completely gone - but it will be!
Thanks for your time!
