Hiya, straight recording using an H2 Zoom recorder. The kettle is in our kitchen under a cabinet and on a wooden worksurface so I guess it picked up the rumble of the boiling water echoing in that space.
Check out Episode 15 of Ad Astral Podcast to hear it in action

This is lovely, it has a great bass response towards the end. How did you record it?
