First, the most proud of the teapot is the particularity of purple sand. The secret of success in raising pots is the quality of purple sand first. Excellent mud will make you get twice the result with half the effort and taste the fun and achievements of raising pots; Poor mud will make you futile, tasteless and useless. Therefore, carefully selecting purple mud is the first step to your success in raising pots. Second, be sure to clean the pot. If it is a new pot, you must first remove the vaseline coated on the pot body (you can wash it with water or salad); If it's an old pot, it should be cleaned and stained with dirt. If the new pot and the old pot can be restored to clean appearance first, it will be beneficial for the tea oil to be adsorbed on the pot body when making tea later. Third, make tea and rub it frequently. Be sure to play with the teapot, nourish your feelings through the process of making tea, and at the same time let the pot body absorb the tea oil on the pot wall through making tea; When making tea, the pot body should be cleaned and wiped with a soft dry cloth while it is hot. Because the temperature of the teapot is high, the pores of the teapot itself will expand slightly, and water will appear on the surface of the teapot. At this time, if the whole pot surface is wiped with a soft dry cloth, the pot body can be wiped warmer and brighter by using the temperature of hot water. IV. Precautions 1. Don't soak the teapot in water when making tea ... Some people are used to pouring boiling water into the tea boat to keep warm, but this is really a kind of harm to raising pots, because it will leave uneven colors on the pots. I suggest that when you make tea, you can put a pot mat under the pot. 2. When making tea, don't pour the tea soup on the pot, and don't wipe the pot with a brush dipped in the tea soup, because this "monk's light" rapid pot raising method is not only the wrong way to raise the pot, but also the experience and fun of the pot raising process. Three is not enough. After making tea, you should throw out the tea residue conveniently. 4. Avoid being placed in places that are easily polluted by dust and lampblack. When storing the teapot, avoid putting it in a place with too much oil smoke and dust, so as not to affect the moist feeling of the teapot surface. A pot is a pot, and practicality comes first. There is no doubt that the teapot is used to make tea. In other words, the basic principle of "practicality" cannot be violated when choosing a teapot. A practical intimate pot should at least have the following points: the capacity is appropriate. The capacity of teapots varies from a few liters of water to a glass of water. People use more cauldrons than small ones, so we should grasp it ourselves. The flip cover design is reasonable, and the tea leaves are convenient to enter and exit. People who like to drink oolong tea are dry and firm before brewing. It's not too difficult to put them in Chaze's pot. But after several rounds of hot water brewing, the leaves will stretch and expand one by one, filling the whole pot tightly (especially when there is too much tea). At this time, if the spout is too small or poorly designed, it will take some time to take out the tea residue. If you neglect maintenance and don't clean for a period of time, it is easy to form tea scale and even mildew on the inner wall of the pot body. The center of gravity should be stable and the end should be easy to hold. Some teapots are very heavy when held at the end, either the handle is not properly designed and does not conform to human mechanics, or the wall of teapots is too thick (too much mud is used). Beginners buying a pot might as well fill it with three quarters of water, lift it with one hand and copy the posture of pouring water. This move is a test of whether its sense of quantity is too heavy. Secondly, you can feel whether the position between your fingers and the kettle handle is comfortable. It's important to hold it easily. The water flow should be smooth and the water collection should be decisive. This is not easy for most teapot buyers to take care of. A good pot produces strong water, smooth arc and round water beam without distortion. Stop pouring water when water is cut off, which is concise and neat, without drooling, and there is no residual water in the pot after pouring water. Ingenuity lies in the heart. Teapot art is famous for its exquisite craftsmanship. Almost all good teapots are hand-molded. Even the green block molding method used for its production and standardization is still quite complicated, so the technological level is an important condition to judge the quality of teapot.
