Cast Iron Tea Brewing with Infuser: A Steeper and Warmer Experience
Cast iron teapots, ideal for brewing loose leaf tea, ensure even heating and flavorful tea due to their design and infuser baskets. However, they should not be heated directly on stovetops because their thinner iron and uneven heat distribution can cause cracking. Instead, water should be heated separately and then added. Proper care involves cleaning without soap, thorough drying, and adequate storage to prevent rust and maintain quality.
