FAQs

Can I put this carafe in the dishwasher?

No, the carafe should be hand-washed only to preserve the vintage floral finish and the thermal insulation properties.

Can I use this for coffee?

While intended for tea, you can use it for coffee; however, ensure you clean the carafe thoroughly afterward as coffee oils can affect the flavor of future tea brews.

How long will the carafe keep liquids hot?

Performance varies based on the starting temperature and ambient environment, but it is designed to maintain high temperatures for several hours.

Is the exterior finish durable?

The finish is decorative and durable under normal use, but it should be protected from harsh chemicals, abrasive scrubbers, and impacts.

What is the best way to clean tea stains from the infuser?

Soak the stainless steel infuser in a mixture of warm water and a little baking soda or white vinegar for 15 minutes before rinsing.

Troubleshooting

Tea is leaking from the lid during pouring

Ensure the lid is screwed on tightly and check that the silicone gasket is correctly seated in its groove.

Beverage temperature drops too quickly

Pre-heat the carafe with boiling water before filling; ensure the lid is fully tightened immediately after filling.

Infuser is stuck or difficult to remove

Gently twist the infuser while pulling upwards; do not force it, as residue buildup may require a soak in warm soapy water to loosen.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Retains temperature effectively for both hot and cold drinks
  • Built-in infuser eliminates the need for separate tea strainers
  • Attractive vintage floral pattern enhances table presentation
  • Easy one-handed operation is convenient for serving
  • Large capacity reduces the need for frequent refills

Cons

  • Hand-washing is required to protect the floral exterior
  • Not suitable for dishwasher use
  • Requires careful handling due to the decorative finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, unscrew the top lid and remove the infuser basket. Add your desired amount of tea leaves into the infuser and lock it back into the lid assembly. Place the lid securely on the carafe, ensuring the seal is tight. For cleaning, remove the infuser and rinse it under warm water. The carafe body should be washed with a soft sponge and mild dish soap. Do not use abrasive scouring pads, as these will scratch the dark blue floral pattern. Always store the carafe in a dry place with the lid slightly ajar if it will not be used for an extended period to prevent any lingering odors.
