Is this teapot dishwasher safe?
This cast-iron teapot must be hand-washed and is not safe for the dishwasher, microwave, toaster, open flame, or induction heating.
-
Is the teapot safe for all types of tea?
Yes, a cast-iron teapot is ideal for brewing most types of tea, including green, black, and herbal teas. The even heat distribution enhances the flavors of your tea, giving you a rich and balanced brew every time.
Just be sure to adjust the brewing time and water temperature based on the specific tea you are preparing.

Can I use my teapot on a stove or open flame?
No, it is not recommended to use your cast-iron teapot directly on a stove or open flame. While cast iron is highly durable, the teapot is designed to brew tea and not for cooking. You can heat the water separately on the stove and then pour it into the teapot to brew your tea.

Will my cast-iron teapot rust over time?
Rust is typically not an issue if you properly maintain your cast-iron teapot. Regular cleaning and drying after each use are essential. As long as the teapot is kept dry and stored properly, it will last for many years without rust.
