Capacity next: 550ml is two generous cups, which suits one or two people, so look at a larger pot if you regularly serve a table. Glass suits flowering teas, herbal infusions and anything where colour is part of the experience, and it does not retain flavours between different teas the way a clay or well-used ceramic pot does. Care is straightforward but worth following: warm the pot with a little hot water before filling it fully, avoid taking it from cold straight to boiling, and wash by hand rather than in a dishwasher to keep the glass clear and protect the wooden handle. Never soak the walnut handle, and dry it rather than leaving it wet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst a ceramic teapot, glass lets you see the brew and does not carry flavours between teas, while ceramic retains heat longer. Compared with a stainless steel pot, glass is far better for judging strength and for flowering teas. Against a teapot with a metal or plastic handle, walnut stays cool to hold and looks considerably better. Against brewing in a mug, a pot serves two cups at consistent strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I pour boiling water straight in?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is high borosilicate glass, made to handle thermal shock, but warming the pot with a little hot water first is still good practice and kinder to any glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many cups does 550ml make?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo generous cups, so it suits one or two people.
