    The kettle is the father of tea. Always learn something new. Thank you all in Miao Li.

      Technically a teapot is the "father of tea," according to Chinese proverbs, not the kettle, but they are related so same same :)

    I was lucky enough to find an antique tetsubin. An iwachu nanbu with arare pattern. Beautiful and I can use it on my stove. 😊

    Thank you for staying true and realistic, as beginner tea head im soo overwhelmed with all the expensive teaware,and money here is not even a biggest issue ,for me im asking myself question,is my palet even going to notice the difference in test,am i experience enough to get all the benefits out of that tool? Probably no,i thing beginner is better off spending money on all the tea he can and test them in pure form,than play with the kettles.

    I’m stoked to hear about the new kettle! Can’t wait to get one. Thanks so much for the deep dive into the intricacies of kettles. I think you should produce a jar, like the ones I see behind Wu De. You can’t find clay jars like that anywhere in the west.

      @@globalteahut I have the jar from 2016 (I think) with the Dong Ding. I love that jar. It’s a great size. Something like that would be cool. Maybe a smaller version as well. I Also have the Liu Bao jar, which I also love, but the simplicity of the smooth purple clay is probably best if you ever offered one. My opinion anyway 😁

    Very interesting, was really wanting to hear more about the new kettles. Thank you for doing this. Going to watch until the end before I ask my question about silver. I'm assuming with the rocks and iron etc that it is totally safe and healthy to be using this throughout the day everyday... we not only have tea out of our kettles but hot water throughout the day except for the heat of summer.

    I'd really be interested in knowing if you were willing to spend twice as much for the kettle what one could gain. I'll definitely want to get both of the kettles, so glad to hear there is a gong fu size one
    Edit : I see you address that with Peter's kettle. Handmade and wood fired is definitely nice, but that's a given of cost increase. I'm more interested in your experience and opinion as a tea maker on the quality of material and water/experience

    • @globalteahut
      @globalteahut  3 роки тому +2

      QUality of material matters a lot. The maker's spirit does to us as well. There is also the "joy" factor, meaning the more you love it, the more you use and the more you use it the better you get at tea preparation....

      It is a blended clay, using 2 clays several volcanic minerals and iron. It makes very nice water, better than our kettles before for sure. We will eventually switch all our teaware to Cloudstone.
