Initiation:
Before first use, rinse the teapot with hot water, then let it dry completely!
Usage:
Avoid placing it on hot surfaces, like a stove, and never use it in a microwave or oven.
Cleaning:
Tea stain is the natural part of a teapot's "maturing process", but if you prefer to avoid it, rinse the teapot well after every use, and do not let the tea leaves sit in it for too long. It is better to avoid dishwashing liquid, but you can use gentle, organic soap to clean your teapot. Never use bleach!
Avoid using a dishwasher or dryer!
To clean the built-in strainer in the teapot, run water backward from the spout, or use a toothbrush or toothpick.
Storage:
After use, always let it dry completely because it might develop an unpleasant smell or mold if stored away while still wet.
Non-glazed ceramic teapot absorbs scents and flavors, so only prepare one class of tea in it (green tea, black tea, roasted tea, etc).
