Know before you buy
No, the interior is coated with enamel, which prevents the tea from coming into direct contact with the iron. This ensures your tea tastes clean and prevents any metallic flavor transfer.
No, this teapot is designed for steeping and serving tea, not for boiling water. You should heat your water in a separate kettle and pour it into the teapot once it reaches the desired temperature.
The removable stainless steel infuser is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. The teapot body should be hand-washed with warm water and dried thoroughly immediately after use to maintain its finish.
Cast iron is excellent at heat retention, so it will keep your tea warm for significantly longer than a standard ceramic or glass teapot. However, it is not a vacuum-insulated thermos, so the temperature will gradually decrease over time.
Yes, 27 ounces is equivalent to roughly three to four standard teacups, making it an ideal size for sharing with a small group or enjoying several cups yourself.
