What should you pay attention to when using a handmade silver teapot?

　　Handmade silver teapots are quite common in daily life, and they’re deeply loved by people precisely because of their many advantages. Now, let me share with you some important things to keep in mind when using a handmade silver teapot. If you’re interested, feel free to take a look!

　　There are quite a few things to keep in mind when using a handmade silver teapot. First and foremost, you need to be aware of dry-burning. Heating an empty silver teapot can cause the entire body of the teapot to deform irreversibly, leaving it beyond repair—such a teapot would have to be returned to the manufacturer to be melted down into raw silver material. Additionally, you shouldn't heat these teapots in a microwave oven. Unfortunately, some people aren't familiar with these important points, so I’m going to explain them clearly here today. The reason is that microwaves work by emitting microwave radiation to heat food or objects.

　　At this very moment, if you place metal objects into the oven, the microwaves emitted will reflect off the metal surface and bounce back into the microwave oven itself, causing a high-frequency short circuit. Therefore, when using handmade silver teapots in the future, you must absolutely avoid heating them in this manner. Be aware that this is definitely the wrong approach—under severe circumstances, it could even lead to fire or explosion.

　　When using a handmade silver teapot, you can't use an induction cooker. This is because the handmade silver teapot itself has radiation-resistant and magnetic-field-shielding properties. Therefore, ordinary household induction cookers cannot be used with it; you’ll need to purchase a specially designed induction cooker.

　　In addition, when using a handmade silver kettle, it’s important to avoid direct flame heating. This is because heating the surface of the silver kettle with an open flame—due to uneven heat distribution and slow heating rates—can cause the surface to turn black or the bottom of the kettle to slightly deform. These are all important points to keep in mind.

　　Here, I’d also like to share with everyone what’s best for heating handmade silver teapots. The answer is an electric ceramic stove. This is because the electric ceramic stove is a new technology developed in Germany, utilizing electric ceramic infrared heating technology—a model that’s currently very popular on the market. It can heat cookware made from a variety of materials. Moreover, when heating, it’s fast and ensures even heat distribution. It emits no radiation, so there’s no need to avoid using it around pregnant women. From now on, you can all try this method. Here are a few additional tips as well.

　　After heating, the back panel will still be warm—be careful not to get burned and avoid unnecessary trouble. Do not use steel brushes or hard-bristled brushes to clean the surface of the kettle, as this could scratch the finish. In addition to these areas, you should also avoid striking the kettle body with external force. Although the kettle is made of metal, it’s not as tough as you might think and can easily dent the surface if struck forcefully.

　　The above article has introduced to you some important considerations when using handmade silver teapots. If you weren’t previously familiar with these points, now’s a great time to learn about them—hopefully, this will be helpful to many more friends. Well then, that’s all for today’s knowledge-sharing session. Stay tuned for even more exciting content in the next episode—don’t forget to tune in!
