I just want to say, you did an excellent job on this video. Even though everything you said, I already knew because I’ve been learning for a while now, but I still think that it was an awesome video and especially if I were a newbie, it would really come in handy. I just wanted to commend you and give you a Pat on the back. Thanks again for doing a bang up job my friend. Keep up the good work. 👍👍
Hello Hunter, thank you so much for the support, it really means a lot to us! Have you gotten a chance to place your Black Friday order yet? We are offering up to 69% off for the next few hours: nioteas.com
Thanks for the video! I have one quick question : How do you wash it (just hot water?) and is there any trick to maintain it in good condition? :) Have a great day!
exo791 I will do a video about it how to wash and maintain it. On a normal day I just wash the Kyusu with warer, warm water. But there are techniques to clean it. Will come next week then 😊🙏🍵
I was surprised as I saw the teapot you used. Its the exact same one I got und I love it. Just out of interest, how much did you pay for it? Mine was 100€ or 117 $. Edit: And is there a reason you chose that exact teapot? I enyojed its weigth, wall thickness and finishing. And what kinds of green tea do you think suit that teapot best?
NayNay2015 its an unglazed Kyusu - I am a big fan of unglazed black Kyusu as they smoothen the taste of tea quite a bit thanks to the minerals in the clay. 🍵
@@NayNay-zm5ln we have the black unglazed kyusu on our website. This is the one we sell the most but we also have a red glazed beginner teapot nioteas.com/collections/teaware/products/black-tokoname-kyusu
Is there concern from lead and cadmium? I heard even if they use materials with no lead or cadmium, use of furnaces that had previously been used to fire pottery with lead and cadmium materials can contaminate new pottery with dangerous levels
If you want a sweet tea I would recommend going for a Kabusecha sencha: nioteas.com/collections/kabuse-sencha these teas are shaded for 10+ days to remove a lot of their bitterness but unlike Gyokuro they don't go into this strong savory direction

Also curious about this as well
I am also curious
Thank you!
you're very welcome, if you want to learn more about teapots, you can watch this video here: czcams.com/video/RJkULGEjKIY/video.html
What is the max amount of infusions you can do?
for Japanese green teas you can usually get 3 solid ones. 4 depending on the tea
Seems like the top cover does not fall out ever during pouring?

Great video. Is the interior of your pot glazed or unglazed?

Nioteas TV which one do you sell on your site?

Nioteas TV my daughter bought me the black one from your site but it is glazed.
Nioteas TV I like it but then I saw this video .......

Good 👍 ,,
How much time can I use the same sancha tea , I mean the same leaf 🍃
you can brew the leaves 3 times and each cup will be a little bit different
@@Nioteas last question ;;)
If I brew the infusion 🍵 today , can I leave the 🍃 leafs 24 hours inside my kyusu until the second brewing??
I would not recommend this! The leaves will go bad overnight
So is this tea sweet ? Can I use a light Chinese tea instead of Japanese tea ?
If you want a sweet tea I would recommend going for a Kabusecha sencha: nioteas.com/collections/kabuse-sencha these teas are shaded for 10+ days to remove a lot of their bitterness but unlike Gyokuro they don't go into this strong savory direction
How much water to leaf do you typically use for a kyusu?
5 grams of leaves and 150 milliliters of water is the standard
@@Nioteas thanks!
How to clean it out?
you can rinse it with water or use baking soda overnight for a deeper clean
That’s such a small amount of tea
What about a cleaning??
Only water I suppose !
yes its really best to only use water. You can use some less harsh cleaning products like baking soda for example
as a left handed person, the side handle idea is stupid
I think they have left handed kyusu teapots
