What is a Kyusu Teapot? Kyusu Brewing Guide and Kyusu Tokoname Benefits

What teapot is good for those with wrist problems?

How do you recommend I clean out my kyusu after each use? I know that using soap on unglazed kyusu can damage the flavor of your tea. Thank you for the great video!

Are these teapots better than using a French press? I brew sencha green tea with a French press.

Sometimes, in the morning, I might forget to rince out my kyusu before I leave for the day. The wet leaves will stay in the pot all day. Could this end up softening the clay and lead to a break?

I like kyusu with wooden handles.

i can't find a kyusu with built in clay filter anywhere in Italy 😭

Can I use such a teapot for other types of loose leaf teas such as oolong?

Very interesting. I just got back from Japan and found a great teastore that sold tea from specific farms around japan. I got a kyusu teapot but didn't realize there were styles with different purposes. Mine is black and with a clay filter. It also has a lovely design from placing seaweed on the surface of the clay during the heating process to give an almost cracked effect that is a bit iridescent. Im still learning the right way to use it but it's been fun trying out my new teas with such nice teaware. I also have some nice little tea cups as well. They don't match as i bought each item at a different shop but each one holds a nice memory.

Hi, a question. You've told us that smaller kyusu teapots are the best to premium tea such as gyokuro to concentrate the flavor of the tea, but also said in other videos that we need a bigger kyusu for the tea leaves to expand in size and release their flavor into the cup. So... What are we suppose to do now? Smaller teapots to concentrate the flavor or bigger ones to expand the leaves and release their flavor to maximum? Please, I'd love to see a reply. Thank you!

I bought a porcelain kyusu with a ceramic filter inside.
Was this a good choice? It isn’t mentioned in this video here…🤔

Can one brew black teas in these?

I suspect the aliens are going to invade Super Earth and we will have to liberate it, after which we will take the fight to their home system.

The Gongfu tea nerd in me is saying to pour it out into a little glass pitcher/fairness vessel, so everybody can get the same concentrated brew equally.

Does it brother others when you shaking the kyusu for the last drop? What about having the hole on the lid not facing the spout.

What’s the ml capacity for these Kyusu teapots on your website? Can’t seem to find this

Wayyyyy to small to use for tea, ridiculous
