First Time Use
To use the porcelain teapot, please wash the interior of the teapot with clean water and be sure NOT to use any detergent or disinfectant.
A porcelain teapot is much less porous than ceramic teapots like Zhu Ni and Zisha teapots but it still absorbs a little amount of tea into the pot during brewing at some parts without glaze. After a period of use, the unglazed parts will develop a kind of coating that retains some flavor and color of the tea. This is the reason why detergent or soap should be avoided to clean the pot. Instead, it should be rinsed with clean water and allowed to air-dry. For porcelain teapots, they can be used for brewing different types of tea since its glaze can prevent from developing some flavor and color of teas. However, unglazed parts will still develop the color of tea gradually.
