It might actually be a good idea to weigh the water.
Like:
1. Teapot on the scale
2. Tare scale
3. Weigh leaves
4. Tare scale
5. Weigh water
I'll try a 200-gram infusion of sencha next (0.0315 stone for metrically impaired

)

10oz Yixing pot that will be used for darker oolongs. It has either a baby dragon or a small foo dog/guardian lion on the lid.
Double Lidded Tea Tin

Nice Cinnamon Kitty! Looks like a Foo Dog to me. The foot on the ball is the give away. Or at least it appears he has his foot on a ball.

Nope, you have seen them all now - the rice pattern that is.
All too small or too big. Until the teaware raid at GeekGirl's house.

I just bought this cup...won't actually have it for a few (2-5) weeks. Excited to see it in person!

Haha, I was thinking about bidding on that one too, but decided against it. Apparently we share links too much around here!
