間を要するという問題点を有していた。However, in the above-mentioned conventional configuration, when tap water or the like is fed into the container 2 to boil water, in order to remove chlorine and the like in the tap water and purify it, the boiling time is increased. It needs to be extended and requires several minutes of boiling time to purify it to a sufficiently satisfactory level, increasing the amount of power consumption and filling the room with steam, and when adding new water to bring it to a boil. In addition, since the temperature of the water accumulated in the water pipe 9 hardly rises, chlorine, musty odor, and trihalomethane contained in the water remain almost in their original state, so chlorine is not necessary for the first hot water to be derived. In addition, there is a problem that there is a component, and in addition, when the hot water that has been boiled once is naturally cooled when it is kept at a temperature of around 85 ° C suitable for sencha, etc. Has a problem that it takes a long time for the hot water in the container 2 to drop to the set temperature, in combination with the structure that the heat insulating efficiency is improved by reducing the power consumption during heat retention.

低減等を図りつつ、液体を速やかに冷却できる。As described above, according to this embodiment, the liquid in the container 2 is branched to the outside of the container body, and the valve body 16 disposed in the branched portion is operated to discharge the liquid. Alternatively, by switching to circulation, a purifier 18 containing a water purification agent 17 is provided near the outlet of the circulating water passage, and a means for cooling the liquid in the circulating water passage is provided, so that heating, heat retention, etc. Since the liquid can be circulated and purified during operation, it is not necessary to extend the boiling time as in the conventional case, and the liquid accumulated in the first water channel 20 is also circulated, so that it is the same as the liquid in the container 2. Can be purified. Further, since the valve body 16 is operated in conjunction with the liquid derivation operation, the valve body 16 does not operate by setting the water channel to the circulating water channel except during the derivation operation, that is, when the valve body 16 is not operating. Even if a state occurs, there is no danger that the liquid will be discharged to the outside of the body during circulation. Further, the liquid in the container 2 can be cooled in the circulating water channel and then recirculated back into the container 2 to quickly reach the set heat retention temperature.
Therefore, even if the container 2 is made of a material or a structure having a high heat insulating effect, it does not affect the cooling effect, so that the liquid can be quickly cooled while reducing power consumption.

It can be tasty and hygienic when needed. In the present embodiment, the purifier 18 is arranged at the outlet of the third water passage 22 above the container 2, but the water purifier 1 is arranged so that the liquid passes through the first water passage 20 of the circulation water passage.
Even if 8 is provided, the same effect can be obtained.
