Troubleshooting

Tea leaves escaping into the teapot

Ensure the infuser is seated firmly in the rim and check if the tea leaf grind is too fine for the mesh filter.

Stains inside the teapot

Soak the teapot in a mixture of warm water and a mild detergent, or use a paste of baking soda and water to gently scrub the interior glaze.

Lid feels loose

The lid is designed to sit comfortably on the rim; ensure no debris is preventing it from seating correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  2. Cleaning: The stoneware body and stainless steel infuser are dishwasher safe, though hand washing with warm soapy water is recommended to preserve the glaze over time.
