Tea bags float in my kettle heated water as well. And for the 27 years I lived without a kettle and microwaved my water (maybe 2-3 times a week) I have never even once seen water get superheated and explode.
I use my kettle 3 times before breakfast. So let's call it 6 times a day assuming I tail off towards bed time. That's 36 times a week assuming I spend 1 day away from home.
So what has taken you 27 years to achieve, I achieve in 2yrs and 3 months. Or to put it another way - I have 12x as many chances to get just the right conditions to flash boil the skin on my hands off.
American minds cannot comprehend the British commitment to a cuppa.
Cool bro. You're better than me for how often you drink tea I guess. All I'm saying is I have heated water in a kettle enough to know tea floats no matter how you hear your water.
It was just meant as a joke - clearly not a good one given I seem to be the only one who found it amusing.
