Choosing a stainless steel teapot, or a teapot in general, is usually affected by several factors. However, the most typical concern is getting a teapot in the right size.
If you are planning on serving some tea to guests, for instance, it would be a good idea for you to get a larger sized one that can easily handle a crowd. A stainless steel teapot with a 30-ounce capacity would be a good place to start because it would be enough to serve tea to a small group.
If you’re the type to drink tea all day and can’t be bother to re-steep to make another batch, you can also get one of the larger sized teapots and just use a teapot warmer to keep your beverage warm as the day winds down. The downside to getting a large stainless steel teapot though for just one person is that you won’t be getting the most out of your tea leaves because you won’t be re-steeping.
If you’re like some people who are heavy tea drinkers, requiring a lot of tea at one time, then it might not be such a bad idea to get a 20-ounce stainless steel teapot. Most tea cups have the capacity to hold 8 to 12 ounces of liquid so a 20-ounce teapot would be able to fill your cup, even if you have a larger one, well before you have to make a second pot.
