How long should tea brew in a teapot? - Home

Try lifting the lid out. The teapot is designed to filter loose tea out of the tea when it is poured and the lid and filter fit tightly.

I've seen mixed results across the internet on this one. From personal experience, for some reason, my glass teapot left some sort of stain on my ceramic stovetop. It also took longer to heat. I then went out and bought a simple metal one and have been pretty satisfied. If cosmetics are a concern, it's not too difficult a step to pour the water into your teapot after the fact, right?

Teapots for one are exactly that - they are teapots that are very small and so make only enough tea for one person (although usually at least 2 cups).

Glass teapots have become quite popular recently. Here is a link to the English Tea Store, where they sell a glass pot and matching cups.

There's more to making the tea than just shoving a few bags in a tea pot and adding hot water. Lovers of English tea believe that you need to warm the pot beforehand and let the tea brew before you start. Take a look at this article on the Yorkshire Tea website that gives a good run down of how to make tea.

A Tea light is a small round candle that is held in a thin metal cup that holds the candle as it turns to liquid. Tea lights get their name from traditionally being used to warm up teapots. They are still used as food warmers or table decorations.

I cannot loacte an actual manual but....The Kamenstein Carousel teapot was part of the MKI versions of teapots Kamenstein released in the mid-2000s. The teapots came in a range of colors, from blue to red, and they had a small carousel on the top. As the water boils the carousel spins around, bringing an element of whimsy to your tea time. The teapots are all metal and can be used on any type of stove top.
Instructions

1. • 1 Fill the Kamenstein Carousel teapot with water just below the sprout.
     
   • 2 Place the Kamenstein Carousel teapot on the stove and set the heat to "Medium."
     
   • 3 Allow the water to come to a boil and remove the Kamenstein Carousel teapot from the stove.
     
   • 4 Pour the hot water into a cup over a tea bag.
