Yixing Clay Teapots

Yixing (pronounced yee-shing) teapots are made from clay produced in the region of Yixing County, China. Because they are not glazed, the clay pots absorb the tea. Over time, a layer of tea sediment forms and with subsequent use the pots retain the flavor, color and aroma of the tea. They are considered as the best possible way to steep tea.

The teapots are fired at temperatures exceeding 1,000 degrees Celsius. They are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

HOW TO MAKE TEA IN YIXING POT

Place one(or more) teaspoon of loose tea leaves into the pot, then fill with 1/3 hot water and let tea leaves steep for one minute. Refill the pot with hot water to make a full pot of delicious tea. Refill three times or more when use Sproutea® loose tea.

To clean, empty tea leaves and flush with hot water. Never use soap!

Cast Iron Teapots

Cast iron teapots come in rich earth colors such as browns, greens and purples. There is enamel inside the teapot, which retains the heat well. A built in metal filter inside the teapot helps control the infusion time.

Care:

1. Before use to brew tea, boil a pot of water and pour it out to warm the pot.
2. after each use make sure that the pot is clean and dry to prevent rust. if water is left in the pot, chemicals from minerals in the water may erode the enamel coating.
3. Tea should not be left in the pot overnight.
4. In the unlikely event of rust, the pot can still be used. After cleaning the rusted area with a soft brush, boil used teabags or leaves. The tannic acid from the tea will react naturally with the iron producing a coating on the rusted area. This will also revent the recurrence of rust.
5. Store your pot in a cool, dry place or put it on display.
