How to clean teapot?
To clean your teapot, begin by emptying any remaining tea or leaves and rinsing it with warm water. We recommend mixing a solution of water and white vinegar and filling the teapot with it, allowing it to soak for 10-15 minutes before rinsing it thoroughly with warm water. For tough stains, you can use a soft sponge or brush with a mixture of baking soda and water to scrub gently. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage the teapot's surface.
How many teabags in a teapot?
The number of teabags to use in a teapot depends on the size of the teapot and personal preference for tea strength. As a general rule, a standard-sized teapot that holds 4-6 cups of water would require 2-3 teabags. However, if you prefer a stronger brew, you can add an additional teabag. It's important to note that loose leaf tea is also a great option for a teapot, and it's recommended to use 1-2 teaspoons of loose leaf tea per cup of water. Ultimately, the number of teabags to use in a teapot is a matter of personal preference and can be adjusted to achieve your desired tea strength.
