How to use

Preheat the teapot by rinsing with hot water before adding tea leaves to support even infusion. Add the recommended amount of loose-leaf tea and pour hot water at the appropriate temperature for the tea variety. Allow the tea to steep for the suggested time, then lift the lid and pour slowly to control flow. After use, rinse the interior with warm water; avoid abrasive cleaners or metal scouring pads to protect the enamel coating. Dry the exterior and interior thoroughly to prevent moisture build-up.

Usage recommendations

Use the teapot on a heat source only for preheating by warming water separately; avoid direct stovetop heating unless specified by the manufacturer. To preserve the enamel interior and exterior finish, do not subject the teapot to sudden temperature shocks and store it dry between uses.
