One is enough, but it's fun to have a few and rotate among them.LaybackPandas wrote:is 1 yixing pot enough for all raw pu's or do you need more?

One is enough, important thing is to get it right.

One is enough, but when does "enough" have anything to do with it?

0, as I don't feel I need a yixing for something like raw puerh, which can vary drastically. I find a Gaiwan works just fine.

One is fine. That being said, if you can afford the occasional really old stuff, 2 is the right amount IMHO.

I use 2. One for Wet stored and the other for aged dry stored.
I use a gaiwan for all of my young sheng.

I currently keep three out and rotate the pot when I open a new cake.
I have twice that many still in the box's they came in.
I would like to put them on display someday.
