teapot care

My big takeaways:

  1. Use the pot a lot.
  2. Rinse after every use. Never store wet, dry without a lid.
  3. Don’t worry about using only a single type of tea.
  1. Just use it. Patina will develop.
  2. Don’t worry too much about using only one tea in it.
  3. Pushing for a single tea or overly dependent on internal seasoning may be a sign of poor quality or overly porous clay.
  4. Rinse pot and dry with lid off. Don’t use soap. Don’t store wet.
