Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, simply place your preferred loose-leaf tea into the stainless steel infuser. Pour hot water into the pot, ensuring you do not exceed the capacity to prevent spills. For maintenance, the glazed stoneware is designed for easy cleaning and is generally dishwasher safe. To protect the integrity of the glaze and prevent potential thermal shock, avoid moving the teapot directly from a freezer to a preheated oven or an open flame. Always hand wash the stainless steel infuser periodically to remove tea tannin buildup, and store the teapot in a stable location to prevent accidental impact.
