Using a gaiwan

Thank you for the link I do feel there should be applause after all those drum rolls!

Love the baleful expression of the cat. He (?) doesn't seem too thrilled. Maybe you need to try gong fu on some catnip.

Wow! So who is Yumcha? I have never seen such lovely gaiwans (unless you count a jade one I saw in a museum). I see no plates with any of them. Do the very finest gaiwans not come with plates? No chicken-fu available for those sweet babies. The little bit of history in that post was wonderful. Thanks for sharing it, Tim.

Just stunning!

Or, alternatively, you could find a thicker porcline gaiwan.

False, the thicker it is the hotter it gets. You want thin walled -- as thin as possible.

Well, all I know is that I have a thin walled gaiwan that I have to use ovenmits to handle while brewing.
