Setup, Compatibility & Care
No formal setup is required for this product; simply wash the jug before its first use to ensure cleanliness. For ongoing care, the jug is dishwasher safe, which simplifies maintenance after tea time. To extend the life of the piece, avoid using abrasive scouring pads that might scratch the decorative 'Fruit' finish. Because this is a pottery-based item, it is not compatible with direct heat sources such as stovetops, hobs, or grills. Always allow the jug to return to room temperature gradually if it has been stored in a freezer or refrigerator to ensure longevity.
