I've always used the same pot for both, I'd venture if a vessel works for sencha it should do at least a decent job for gyokuro.

Ed - I'll let you know about the organic gyokuro when I get around to opening it. I might not be able to give a very balanced view as it's both the first light steam, I think, gyo I've bought and the first organic one.

... and all of this talk about gyo has forced me to brew up some kame-giru-shi!

And where is that from? :wink:

Wish I had some, I won't be getting any gyokuro til Winter which is when I normally and logically include more non sencha in my tea menu.

But ohhh, anticipation ...
