Cleaning a glass teapot is pretty simple. First, let it cool down before washing. Use warm water and mild dish soap, gently scrubbing with a soft sponge to avoid scratches. For tough stains or tea residue, try soaking the teapot in a mix of water and baking soda for about 15 minutes.

• Rinse thoroughly to remove any soap or baking soda.
• Let it air dry or use a soft towel.

Avoid using abrasive cleaners or steel wool, as these can damage the glass. Regular cleaning helps keep your teapot sparkling and ready for your next brew!

Some tea sets, especially those made from borosilicate glass or stainless steel, are designed for stovetop use.

• Always check the product description or packaging for stovetop compatibility.
• Porcelain and ceramic sets are usually not safe for direct heat.

If your teapot is stovetop-safe, use low to medium heat and avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent cracking. If you're unsure, it's best to heat water separately and pour it into your teapot for serving.

Stainless steel tea sets are known for their durability and resistance to rust, making them great for everyday use and easy cleaning.

• They often retain heat well and are suitable for brewing and serving.

Porcelain tea sets, on the other hand, offer a classic, elegant look and are ideal for special occasions.

• They can be more delicate and may require gentle handling.

Choosing between them depends on your style preferences and how you plan to use your tea set.

Many tea sets featured here include infusers or strainers, making them perfect for brewing loose leaf tea.

• Glass and stainless steel teapots often come with removable infusers for easy steeping and cleaning.
• Porcelain sets may require a separate strainer.

Using an infuser helps keep leaves contained while allowing flavors to develop. Always check the product details to see if an infuser is included or compatible with your tea set.

To keep your tea set in great shape, store it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.

• Use a dedicated stand or shelf to prevent pieces from bumping into each other.
• For glass and porcelain, consider lining shelves with soft material to avoid chips or cracks.

Stainless steel sets are less prone to damage but should still be kept dry to prevent water spots. Regularly check for any signs of wear and handle each piece gently when setting up or putting away.
