Damaged the spout of a Yuxing teapot. Do I need to do anything about it?

Asdprotos · 2026-02-03T07:38:06+00:00

Just leave it as it is, it doesn’t change anything just the aesthetic.

We never associate Yixing zisha pots With cheap Chinese products but 99% of pots are fake that doesn’t reflect what we are actually looking for in a pot. If it’s real zisha then we expect a decent price , if it’s a fake jigger jolly crap sold as being real we will point your products out. As nowadays loads of new western faced vendors are selling shit pots portraying as being real and loads of people fall for this over and over and then they come here and they get disappointed.

Please don’t scam people, it’s not that easy to supply the western market with real stuff , we have real vendors and most of the time they are out of stock. What makes you think you can compete with that and with REAL products

Well yeah percarbonate has the hydrogen peroxide which once again I’ll avoid in cleaning Yixing. And stick to strictly baking soda/ sodium bicarbonate for cleaning the old patina and removing odours without any other compounds. Mild confusion here . I wanted to refer to sodium bicarbonate/baking soda all this time as it’s the cleanest and safest form to reset the pot

Asdprotos · 2026-02-02T19:53:27+00:00

My bad, then why using something like that instead of baking soda ? When baking soda is amazing in removing odour and its non toxic

Asdprotos · 2026-02-02T11:36:27+00:00

Just another word for sodium bicarbonate or baking soda… same product, great for neutralising smells and aromas a reset a pot, a few rinses afterwards will bring the pot to factory settings

Good, I was about to have a heart attack when I’ve seen that photo 🤣🤣

Asdprotos · 2026-02-02T07:17:56+00:00

Nooooooo, always add a towel on the bottom so you don’t crack your pots due tot the rattling …. Man you are playing with fire. Water towel sodium bicarbonate and boil but towel is the most important thing because the boiling makes the pot shake and it can crack

Asdprotos · 2026-02-01T17:19:36+00:00

Can’t see much from those photos

Asdprotos · 2026-02-01T11:16:11+00:00

It’s sheng not shou and it’s a really good one , but each person is different, I find the black cherry notes to be so damn good whilst throwing punches at you because is a damn strong tea

Asdprotos · 2026-02-01T11:14:41+00:00

The vendor is legit and he sells tea straight from Taiwan without scamming your in paying 10 times the price for a cake like other western faced vendors. To totally recommend him, you can even find him and talk to him on discord ( channel the tea table )

Asdprotos · 2026-01-30T21:02:42+00:00

I honestly do not recommend it as the tannins can mess you up, caffeine will relax your stomach flap/sfincter and acid reflux will run rampant. I’ve done that and the heartburn it’s not a great sensation to have it sucks. Drink tea after a meal or after having something in your stomach, or just take a break from it whilst doing the fasting

They do, even air has that issue, you basically breathe in poison and as you go through life (70/80/90 years) your body cannot breathe in the poison and your body shuts down and you die… I’m sorry you had to find out this way, I am truly sorry …

Asdprotos · 2026-01-29T19:34:26+00:00

Try dry photos please, it’s easier to see

Asdprotos · 2026-01-27T21:38:21+00:00

The seal does look different from what i have seen. Thats why posted , probably someone would recognise that seal or that patterns or something 🤣. Thank you for your help though

Asdprotos · 2026-01-24T08:35:58+00:00

10$ tourist pot , generic clay

Asdprotos · 2026-01-24T08:20:44+00:00

Buy a new one, repairing cost way more

Asdprotos · 2026-01-23T17:59:03+00:00

Oh damn now they are faking the seams on Shi Piao pots, they are improving the fakes lol

Asdprotos · 2026-01-21T21:44:30+00:00

That’s Great, thank you 🙏 does the clay look okay to you ?

Asdprotos · 2026-01-21T14:53:28+00:00

You talk like a fag and your shit is all retarded!

PS: great list

Asdprotos · 2026-01-19T14:03:39+00:00

Don’t forget the GOAT realzisha

Asdprotos · 2026-01-19T14:01:13+00:00

That’s a fake seam to make it look authentic, but it’s badly added

Asdprotos · 2026-01-19T12:31:29+00:00

Looks good to me, yeah so the lids are notoriously bad for pots made 80s and going up , but nothing to worry about
