FAQs

What is the capacity of this teapot?

The Kinto Glass Teapot has a capacity of 450 ml, suitable for one to two servings.

Can I use this teapot on a stovetop?

No, this teapot is not designed for stovetop use. It is microwave-safe for reheating liquids.

How should I clean the teapot?

You can hand wash it with mild soap and water or place it on the top rack of your dishwasher.

Is it safe to put hot water in a cold teapot?

Avoid sudden temperature changes. Allow the teapot to reach room temperature before adding hot water to prevent thermal shock.

Can I steep multiple types of tea in this teapot?

Yes, but for the best flavor profile, it is recommended to rinse the teapot between brewing different types of tea, especially if switching from a strongly flavored tea to a delicate one.

Does the glass teapot come with an infuser?

This specific model description does not mention an included infuser. It is designed for brewing loose-leaf tea directly in the pot.

Troubleshooting

Teapot is cloudy after washing.

This may be due to mineral deposits from hard water. Try soaking the teapot in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water for 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Using filtered water for brewing and washing can also help prevent this.

Handle feels loose.

Ensure the handle is properly seated. If the issue persists, contact customer support as the handle may be detached.

Small chips or cracks appear.

Inspect carefully. Small chips or cracks compromise the integrity of the glass. Discontinue use immediately to prevent breakage and consider replacing the teapot.
