The Real Difference
Your Cast Iron Teapot Keeps Tea Warm Longer
You know that moment when you finally sit down with your cup, and it's already gone cold? Well now, cast iron holds heat like nothing else. This teapot keeps your brew warm while you actually enjoy it, no rushing, no reheating. It's a small thing, believe me, but once you've had a proper unhurried cup, you won't go back.
What's Inside the Box
Iron, Enamel, and a Stainless Steel Infuser
The exterior is cast iron with a pine and bird design that, let me tell you, looks lovely on any counter. Inside, the enamel coating protects the iron and keeps flavors clean. The stainless steel infuser basket is already in the box, so you can brew loose leaf tea from day one. Mind you, this one is not for the stovetop, and hand washing keeps it in good shape for years.
FAQ
Your Questions About This Cast Iron Teapot
How much tea does this cast iron teapot make?
It holds 1.2 liters, which is roughly four to five cups depending on your mug. A solid amount for a quiet morning alone or sharing a pot with a friend, without having to brew twice.
Can I use this teapot directly on the stove?
No, honey, this one is not stovetop safe. Heat your water separately in a kettle, then pour it over your leaves in the infuser. That's the proper way to use it and it keeps the teapot in good shape.
Does it come with an infuser for loose leaf tea?
Yes, a stainless steel infuser basket is included in the box. You're all set to brew loose leaf tea right away, no extra purchase needed.
How do I clean and care for this cast iron teapot?
Hand wash only, that's the rule here. The enamel interior makes rinsing easy, but skip the dishwasher and avoid soaking it. A quick rinse and a dry cloth after each use will keep it going for a long time.
Will the cast iron affect the taste of my tea?
The interior is enamel-coated, so the iron doesn't come into direct contact with your brew. Your tea tastes exactly as it should, clean and true to the leaf, with none of that metallic note you might worry about.

How can I track my order?

Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
