Fellow makes some of the most beautiful kettles you can put on a kitchen worktop, but the range can be confusing. Should you choose the Stagg EKG or the Corvo EKG? Is the Pro worth the extra? And where does the Clyde fit in? This guide explains the real differences between the Fellow Stagg EKG, Corvo EKG and Clyde, so you can choose the right Fellow kettle for how you actually make coffee and tea.
The short answer
- Brew pour-over coffee (V60, Chemex, Stagg X)? Choose the Stagg EKG Pro. Its gooseneck spout gives you a slow, precise pour.
- Drink tea, use a cafetière or AeroPress, and want temperature control? Choose the Corvo EKG Pro. Its wider spout pours faster.
- Just want a beautiful everyday kettle that boils quickly? Choose the Clyde.

Fellow Stagg EKG Pro: the pour-over specialist
The Stagg EKG Pro is Fellow's flagship pour-over kettle. Its slim gooseneck spout and counterbalanced handle make slow, steady pours easy to repeat. That matters for pour-over methods, where the speed and placement of your pour affect extraction.
- Temperature control to the degree, shown on a full-colour screen
- Schedule mode, Guide Mode presets and an altitude setting
- Adjustable Hold Mode from 15 to 60 minutes
- 0.9-litre capacity and WiFi firmware updates
- Fellow makes it in six finishes, including walnut and maple accents, and it carries a 2-year warranty

Stagg EKG vs Stagg EKG Pro
We also stock the standard Stagg EKG in Smoke Green with Maple (£155). It shares the gooseneck spout, 0.9-litre capacity and variable temperature control, and adds a 60-minute hold and a built-in brew stopwatch. The Pro adds a full-colour screen, scheduling, adjustable hold times, altitude settings, WiFi updates and a longer warranty. If you'd like to wake up to hot water at the right temperature, the Pro is worth the difference.
Fellow Corvo EKG Pro: precision for tea and everyday brewing
The Corvo EKG Pro has the same smart features as the Stagg EKG Pro, but with a wider spout designed for a quick yet controlled pour. That makes it ideal for filling a teapot, cafetière, AeroPress or mug. Precise temperature still matters: green and white teas suit cooler water than black tea, and many coffee lovers like a specific temperature for immersion brewing.
- Temperature control to the degree, shown on a high-resolution colour screen
- Schedule, Guide Mode presets for coffee and tea, and an altitude setting
- Adjustable Hold Mode for 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes
- Optional pre-boil, then cooling to your target temperature
- WiFi firmware updates
Choose the Corvo EKG Pro in Matte Black (£159) or Matte Black and Walnut (£175).
Fellow Clyde: the beautiful everyday kettle
The Fellow Clyde keeps things simple. Press the LED switch and it boils. At 1.5 litres, it's the largest Fellow electric kettle, and its 2200W element suits busy households. The wide mesh spout pours without dripping, the silicone handle is comfortable for one-handed pouring even when full, and a cord wrap keeps the worktop tidy.
The Clyde doesn't have temperature control, so it isn't the best choice for pour-over or delicate teas. But if you want a kettle that looks wonderful and handles everything from tea to cafetière coffee to cooking, it's excellent value.
Other temperature-control kettles worth considering
- Hario Buono V60 Power Kettle (£209): a classic gooseneck with temperature adjustment in 1°C steps from 50°C to 96°C, 0.8-litre capacity and a 15-minute keep-warm.
- Wilfa Fixed Temperature Control Kettle (£120): five preset temperatures (40, 70, 80, 90 and 100°C), a 25-minute keep-warm and double-wall insulation.
- Hario V60 Buono Electric Drip Kettle (£109): the famous Buono gooseneck in a simple boil-only electric version.
Which Fellow kettle should you buy?
- How do you brew? Pour-over needs a gooseneck, so choose the Stagg. Tea, cafetière and AeroPress are well served by the Corvo or Clyde.
- Do you need temperature control? If yes, choose a Stagg or Corvo EKG. If you only ever boil, the Clyde will do the job beautifully.
- How much water do you need? The Clyde holds 1.5 litres. The EKG kettles hold 0.9 litres, which is plenty for pour-over or a pot of tea for two.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the Fellow Stagg and Corvo?
The main difference is the spout. The Stagg EKG has a narrow gooseneck spout for precise pour-over brewing. The Corvo EKG has a wider spout for faster pouring, ideal for tea, cafetière and everyday use. The Pro versions of both share the same smart features.
Is the Fellow Stagg EKG Pro worth it?
If you brew pour-over regularly, the precise temperature control, steady gooseneck pour and scheduling make a real difference to consistency and convenience.
Does the Fellow Clyde have temperature control?
No. The Clyde is a boil-only kettle with a 1.5-litre capacity. For temperature control, choose the Stagg EKG or Corvo EKG.
