Le désentaillage est effectué dès la fin de la coulée. Il est très important de ne pas attendre, car on risque de retarder la cicatrisation et par le fait d'obtenir une zone de bois coloré plus grande […] La méthode suggérée consiste à cogner le chalumeau de chaque côté afin de le décoincer, et ensuite le retirer directement avec [les] mains. 1, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9sentaillage

Cycle-and-off kettles are the least sophisticated : their thermal cut-offs shut the element off when the kettle boils dry. Once the element cools, a thermostat regulates the element's cycling and this on-and-off cycling continues until the dry kettle is unplugged. 1, record 4, English, - cycle%2Dand%2Doff%20kettle

Les bouilloires à arrêt automatique sont les moins raffinées : leur interrupteur coupe tout simplement le courant lorsqu'il ne reste plus d'eau dans le réservoir et que l'élément surchauffe.
