    As a potter, can I correct you on one point, ceramics fired to stoneware temperature is not porous. At stoneware temperature it becomes stone, it can not absorb liquids. It is vitrified. The wood fired pot is a high fired stoneware, the temperature ,wood ash and ash glaze has sealed the pot, it is not porous.

    Thanks for this informative video. The "pour cup" is not meant only for stopping the steep but it's also a "fair cup", right?

    • @TaoTeaware
      @TaoTeaware  6 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah the literal translation is fairness cup which can refer to an even steep or everyone being served the same tea regardless of class or social status.

    Is there a kind of pot you’d recommend for green tea? Another question: if I’m trying to get into sheng but struggling a little, is there a kind of pot or gaiwan that would bring out the best in sheng puerh?

    • @TaoTeaware
      @TaoTeaware  3 месяца назад +1

      I would stick to a gaiwan for green teas.
      If they’re finer Japanese greens than a shiboradashi or a Japanese teapot with a finer filter pattern would be better.
      If you’re struggling with the astringency, Yixing pots have the best softening typically but can be pretty expensive.

    WOAH! That $200 pot really pours poorly. If it was in the thrift store for more than $5 I would not buy it. If I saw it's pour I would not accept it if it was free.

  • @inthespread001
    @inthespread001 4 месяца назад

    Another reason why the expensive teapot is most expensive, other than the zisha mineral, is because of the traditional way of making it. There is art to it, the same way they were making it hundreds of years ago. It's kinda funny I could tell which one is the most expensive one from his subtle reaction when Griffin dropped the lid, @0:56. Dart's heart dropped too that he forgot to take a sip.

      brew a lot of tea at the same time is not recommended, because the brewed tea will sit there and start oxidating if you dont drink fast enough and that affect the taste.

      @@mahpgnaohhnim It takes about 24 hours to oxidize and 30 minutes to an hour isn't a long enough time. To experience the benefits you need a pint or two, and without you're not a true tea drinker. You're just a posing floof.
