Choosing the right teapot might not seem like an important decision, but when tea is life the right teapot is everything. There’re countless different designs out there, so how do you choose the best teapot to make the perfect cup of tea? 

Does the teapot you choose affect taste?
 

The simple answer to this one is yes, the type of teapot you buy can indeed affect the taste of your cup of tea! Stainless steel, cast iron, and porous ceramics may influence the taste for your cuppa. You want a teapot that will brew your tea and not leave a noticeable after taste, which can happen with unglazed ceramic teapots 

Types of teapots
 

These types of products can be divided by the characteristics they have. If you use loose leaf tea, you will need a teapot with a fine strainer or an infuser teapot. The material and durability are the main factors you need to consider when choosing between these different teapot types. The best material really does depend on your individual needs, and what tea you want to brew. The best design is what fits with your own personal style, and the style of your space. 

  • Stoneware teapots are pretty good for many different types of tea and can often be put in the dishwasher.
  • Glass teapots best suit those who want to brew floral, green, and light oolong teas and want to wash the pot in the dishwasher.
  • Porcelain teapots are ideal for tea blends that you brew utilising slightly cooler water like green or white tea. However, you can’t wash these pots in the dishwasher.
  • Unglazed ceramic teapots are perfect for darker oolongs and black tea, although you can’t wash them with washing liquid or in the dishwasher.
  • Stainless steel teapots are probably the most popular type, ideal for those who don’t want to pay too much, and want a long lasting product. They are also easy to clean.

Stainless steel or ceramic?

 These two types are the most popular choices. Tea lovers should opt for ceramic teapots if they want an aesthetically pleasing item that may contribute to the tea’s flavour. Ceramic teapots chip easily compared to stainless steel. They can also be prone to staining. However, a stainless steel teapot may be an excellent choice if you desire the classic look. The long lasting and hardwearing materials ensure breakages are non existent.
