How to maintain the teapot

When you first enter the field of teapot collection, you should first find a reputable merchant, find an expert to "match the bridge", find out what kind of workmanship is good and what kind of workmanship is poor, and finally find out which author this work comes from. In addition, the collection of teapot depends on the quality of purple sand. Good mud will change quickly in the process of raising pots.

It is more suitable for Xiamen people to collect teapot, because Xiamen people are used to drinking oolong tea, and teapot can spit out fragrance and absorb fragrance, which can fully show the characteristics of oolong tea.

In addition, novices should not be "extravagant", and the most taboo is to spend a lot of money without knowing anything. Just getting started, you can spend hundreds of dollars to buy the works of some assistant craftsmen. Listen more, ask more questions, prepare your homework, and you will be able to cook the pot.

The collector said that the vaseline coated on the new pot should be removed first and can be cooked. If it is an old pot, wash the scale on the pot body first.

New or old pots must be cleaned first, which is conducive to "raising pots".

There are several rules for maintaining teapot: First, don't soak teapot in water when making tea. When making tea, some people are used to keeping the teapot warm in a basin filled with boiling water. This practice is actually harmful to the pot and will leave uneven color on the pot.

Second, "raising pots" cannot be done quickly. When making tea, don't pour the tea soup on the pot, or wipe the pot with a brush dipped in tea soup, thus losing the fun of "raising the pot".

Third, after making tea, you should throw away the tea residue conveniently. Because of the high temperature and humidity in Xiamen, tea residue is easy to produce odor or mildew when stored in the pot.

Fourth, don't put the teapot in a place that is easy to be contaminated with dust and lampblack, so as not to affect the moisture on the surface of the teapot.

Fifth, when cleaning, wiping and brushing should be moderate. Brush the tea leaves in the pot with a soft brush, rinse them with boiling water, and then wipe them with a clean tea towel. That's all. Avoid constantly pushing and kneading the teapot.

Sixth, give the teapot a certain rest time. After a period of soaking, the teapot needs a rest. Only in this way can the soil tire be completely naturally dried and absorbed later. The pot raised in this way has a lasting brightness and is not afraid of touching.
