Re: Yixing
Nice job. It still surprises me sometimes how spanking clean these come out after a bath like that.
I can imagine this being a soothing distraction from the madness around you...

Re: Green Tea Vendor Topic
Maybe a different way to go at it: to those who buy a lot of Japanese tea - was it compared to other vendors better price for quality before the change? Maybe the original pricing was just too low to make it viable for them to sustain? Take for example Hojo, which is price quite highly (for decent q...

Re: Green Tea Vendor Topic
That was his usp: selling stuff that is hard to find on the Japan market as it’s not wha the majority there prefers to drink. I doubt he had many Japanese customers to begin with. If any mostly walk-in to the shop/teahouse.

Re: Introduce Yourself
Thank you. I will be travelling to Tokyo and Kyoto next week and planning to go to Ippodo in Kyoto to try some of their offerings. Prepare to be disappointed. While the shop in Kyoto is a nice old building, there is not much in it, trying is if I recall correctly also only possible in their attache...

New pot, seal by 湯伯明製 [Tang Baiming zhi]. Medium-fired clay, volume 110 ml. Matte, smooth surface, made with the help of a mold, probably.

Re: Brass kettle useable?
My great grandmother passed away last year, and I got this kettle from her. I have no idea if I can actually use it to brew tea or not, and the only thing it says is “Made in Germany” on the bottom. Does anyone know if it’s usable? ./download/file.php?id=15010 Clean it, cook water and try how you l...

Re: Yixing
i_viter You are welcome, hope it works out for you! I have had some pots fired again, but that was more to get underfired clays up to a usable standard.
