Know before you buy
No, this teapot is designed for steeping and serving rather than boiling water. You should heat your water in a separate kettle and pour it into the teapot once it reaches the desired temperature.
The interior features an enamel coating, which makes it easy to maintain. Simply rinse the pot with warm water after each use and dry it thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
The enamel coating prevents the tea from coming into direct contact with the iron, ensuring that the flavor remains pure. The cast iron construction primarily serves to provide even heat distribution and excellent heat retention.
Yes, the included stainless steel basket is fully removable. This allows you to easily steep your loose-leaf tea and remove the leaves once the brewing process is complete to prevent over-steeping.
With a capacity of 0.8 liters, this teapot typically serves about 3 to 4 standard tea cups, making it an ideal size for personal use or small gatherings.
