Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Utopia Long Island Glass Teapots, proper maintenance is essential. While borosilicate glass is strong, it should be protected from extreme impact.
- First Use: Thoroughly wash the teapot and filter with warm soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge before the first use.
- Cleaning: Hand washing is recommended to preserve the clarity of the glass and prevent damage to the filter mesh. Avoid using metal scrubbers.
- Usage Guidelines: Fill with hot water rather than placing the pot directly onto a heating element or burner.
- Storage: Store in a secure, dry area. When stacking, ensure there is adequate spacing to prevent glass-on-glass contact which may lead to chips or fractures.
