In recent years, drinking hot water boiled in an iron kettle has been drawing attention as it can be expected to have a detoxifying effect as well as provide iron. It is the perfect size for boiling a cup of hot water every morning.

- Color changes over time
Water is likely to accumulate around the lid and other areas that come into contact with steam, causing discoloration and rust.
If used over an open flame, the bottom will discolor and turn white.
If the gas flame covers the surface of the iron kettle, that part will easily discolor, so please keep the heat low.
Be careful not to apply too much pressure.
If you cook next to an iron kettle, oil splashes can cause oil stains.
Please be careful as this may cause discoloration.

*Precautions when using a teapot
When using it as a teapot, just as when boiling water, be careful not to leave any water inside.
The color of the tea will darken due to a reaction between the tannins in the tea and the iron, but please rest assured that this is not harmful.
We have received feedback that the reaction between the iron and tea components mellows out bitter and other unpleasant flavors, making the tea smoother and more palatable.
