Product Information
Full details
The Olympia Concorde 2-Litre Teapot is designed for busy hospitality environments and home hosts who require a reliable, high-capacity solution for serving hot beverages. Its primary strength lies in its robust 202 stainless steel construction and mirror finish, which combine durability with an elegant aesthetic suitable for formal table settings. While it provides excellent heat-resistant handling, users should note that as a stainless steel vessel, it does not retain heat as long as cast iron or ceramic alternatives, meaning it is best suited for immediate serving applications.

FAQs
Can I use this teapot on a stovetop?
No, this teapot is designed for service and pouring only. It should not be placed on direct heat sources.
Is the teapot dishwasher safe?
While the stainless steel is durable, hand washing is highly recommended to maintain the high-polish mirror finish and prevent surface dulling.
How many cups can the 2-litre pot serve?
A 2-litre capacity typically serves approximately 8 to 10 standard 200ml teacups.
Will the handle get hot?
The teapot features a heat-resistant handle designed to remain cool, but caution should always be used when the vessel is filled with boiling water.
What is 202 stainless steel?
202 stainless steel is a versatile austenitic alloy known for its excellent strength and high resistance to oxidation and corrosion in food service environments.
Troubleshooting
Water spotting on the exterior
Wipe the exterior immediately after washing with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to prevent mineral deposits from drying on the mirror finish.
Teapot feels hot to touch
Ensure you are holding the pot strictly by the heat-resistant handle and verify that the water inside has not exceeded boiling point before handling.
Difficulty removing tea stains inside
Soak the interior with a mixture of baking soda and warm water for 15 minutes, then scrub gently with a soft cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Olympia Concorde Teapot in peak condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Setup: Wash the teapot thoroughly with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge before its first use to remove any manufacturing residue.
- Compatibility: This teapot is intended for service only; it is not designed to be placed directly on stovetop burners, induction hobs, or open flames.
- Cleaning: While the stainless steel is corrosion-resistant, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended to preserve the mirror finish. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads or harsh chemicals, which can cause surface scratches.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the handle connection points to ensure they remain secure. Dry the teapot immediately after washing to prevent water spotting on the mirror finish.
