Bredemeijer Cast Iron Tea Warmer Jang, Black G005Z

Nice design and finish . Manufactured well and nice to look at. A little bulky visually with Tea pot on , but as the pot cools quite quickly with the result, warm Tea , It is necessary if you like your Tea hot . It may seem strange to say as cast iron is known for heat retention and good distribution of heat, but this is what i found in this case , the pot thickness will of course affect heat retention and there is weight to consider.Overall a good solution for keeping Tea hot.

I like this item, there seems to be some confusion as to what this item can be used for. It's a cast-iron teapot heater for use with a cast iron teapot, normally used to heat a large amount, 1 liter, of black tea for all-day consumption of black tea. Black tea needs high temperatures for long periods of time the longer and hotter the better the tea, normal kettles only reach 90 or less and then cool down and black tea tastes bad like this. You would normally heat a large cast-iron teapot, 1 liter, with tea loose black tea on a special cast iron warmer that can be used on a hob, the hob warmer heats the tea over one hour, towards the afternoon you can move the teapot to a warmer like this one that uses tea lights to continue to brew the black tea. This is even more important if you drink white tea as it needs even higher temp at longer times than even black tea.Now, having griefed people about the use of this item you can do what you want with it, but I wanted to share the world of tea with you and hope you will use it for its intended use. There aren't many tea shops in the UK mainly coffee. But there are great tea importers on amazon and you can get every tea from All around the world. I don't recommend putting this on a hob as it's dangerous. buy the hob warmer which can be used with all hobs including induction hobs if you want to do this as it is specifically designed to be less dangerous, I don't recommend putting a China teapot on this, it is just bad for the ceramics as they are not for use with open flames and I don't recommend putting a glass teapot on this it will ruin both ceramics and glass teapots, it is also not a hob warmer so don't put it on your hob.I do recommend this item it is excellent.

Just love this item well made

Like this, but it’s bigger than I expected (taller and makes the squat tea pot look a bit odd) and yes I would have ordered blue to match my tea pot. But they don’t sell one. It’s great quality though.

I'm very impressed that one tea light candle can keep my tea so warm! I also tried 2 tea lights and the tea was very hot! Great idea. Works brilliantly with my iron cast teapot.

Was so surprised it did the job with 2 tea lights, after trying so many of the cheaper ones. Loving my evening teas, especially in this horrid weather

Really great little product. It's a lot more attractive than the impression give in the photograph, and a lot heavier than it looks. It would take some effort to knock this off wherever it is placed. Tea light candles fit inside without any fiddling, and air flow is excellent. Four holes around the base allow the unit to draw more than enough air to feed the flame. While we did initially purchase a heat resistant mat for this to sit on, it's not necessary. Heat transfer from the tea light, even without a mount plate is minimal and this is safe on the majority of surfaces. It works perfectly, and we've been using it to keep coffee hot in a glass pot, the liquid is kept nice and hot as long as the candle burns, so no worries over like warm or cold drinks.This item is well made and attractively finished and looks a treat on the dining table and out in the yard on summer evenings. Really pleased with the purchase, and to save us carrying around I'm very tempted to buy another one.

Love it. Fits in three nightlights which is enough to reheat a cold pot of tea or keep a hot one steaming for several hours! Sturdy, well ventilated, sits steady, teapot does not slip. Official NewBest Thing!I use it with an old Denby teapot which fits it exactly. Much smugness.
