2. Keep it clean and cultivate patina: there will be tea stains on the surface of the pot. This requires gently brushing the surface of the pot with a pot brush or a soft toothbrush to keep it clean. After a long period of wiping and washing, the surface of the pot will appear matte, which is called patina. This matte will not fade due to high temperature and high pressure washing, which is very elegant.
3, individual care to prevent cracking: some varieties of teapot, such as thin-walled red clay pot, should pay special attention when using in winter. When friends around them use thin-walled bamboo pottery pots in winter, according to the habit, they pour boiling water on the pot body before making tea. Because the pot was suddenly and unevenly heated, the beloved clay pot burst. When the temperature is low in winter, it must be used with caution. You can pour the teapot with warm water that has been dried for a while, then pour the water outside and then inside, and then make tea in the usual way.
4, embossed flowerpots need to be extra careful: the most common way to raise pots is to pour water and wipe with tea. Some flower teapots will have some raised or suspended shapes and decorations outside the pot surface. On the one hand, these places are easy to retain tea stains and it is difficult to clean them. On the other hand, if you don't pay attention to them, you will scratch the decorative mud or tiny, protruding branches, which will damage and disfigure your beloved teapot. Therefore, you should be extra careful when maintaining flower equipment.
