Chao Zhou White Clay Kettle Water Boiler

The authentic white clay, or Sha Diao, is traditionally believed to purify water and soften its texture. This process helps to enhance the natural flavor profile of your tea leaves, providing a smoother brewing experience compared to metal kettles.

This kettle is designed for traditional stovetop use. However, because it is made of clay, it is best suited for gas stoves or charcoal burners; it is not compatible with induction cooktops.

Yes, it is critical to ensure there is water in the kettle before placing it on a heat source. Heating an empty clay kettle can cause it to crack or sustain permanent damage.

Rinse the kettle with warm water after each use and allow it to air dry completely. Avoid using harsh soaps or detergents, as the porous nature of the clay can absorb these chemicals and affect the taste of your future brews.

The kettle features a cool-touch grip on the side handle, which is designed to remain at a manageable temperature during the boiling process. Even so, we recommend using caution or a cloth if the kettle has been on the heat for an extended period.

The kettle has a 600 ml capacity, which is ideal for personal tea rituals or serving one to two people. It is sized specifically for precision brewing rather than boiling large volumes of water.
