Can I pour hot water into it? Maybe sometimes I want to make tea in it, is that OK?

It is not recommend to use hot water in it. It can distort the appearance of the bottle and can be very hot to the touch since it is a plastic bottle.

Absolutely! The infuser is a screen mesh material, so you could either put your tea bag below it and just ignore it completely while you drink your tea (usually what I do) or you could lay the tea bag on top of the infuser and fill with hot water. If you do this you would need to remove the tea bag before drinking as it would be next to your mouth, but either way it works fine. Sometimes I just throw a tea bag in with the sip-thru lid instead of the infuser as the drinking hole is small enough the tea bag won't come through.

I am not sure that pouring very hot (e.g. boiling) water in it is a very good idea. It's not insulated, so it would get very hot to hold, plus I'm not sure whether the plastic would emit any chemicals due to hot water or not. I put relatively warm water in it with no troubles, but it's only about 100F or so.

You can put hot liquids in it. But it isn't insulated. You may want to look at the wide mouth version.

This is a teapot for holding tea, not for boiling water. You'll still need a kettle for that.The handle doesn't get hot when using it for serving.

I use it to steep the tea so I pour boiling water in to it. I know there is a candle warmer for it to stay hot. I wouldn;t put it on the stove myself.

We'll.... Certainly you can PUT hot water in it, but it won't STAY hot, because it is single wall. It is not a double wall "thermos" type of container. The outside will be as hot or cold as the liquid you put into it.

It's not meant to go on the burner. You can pour boiling water into it but it's to be used as a teapot on the table, not for heating.

Havn't tried, but I don't think so. You pour boiling water into it, as in tea!

I dont this it would be useful. Tea neds to stay few minutes in hot water here the water drips quickly

I'm sure it is since it can handle boiling hot water. However, it's better to hand rinse to avoid a soapy taste. This makes drinking tea fun. It's the little things in life

Yes, that is the only way you can get water in it! If you use all the water it will shut down until you add more water. It works great for office meetings or at home. I use mine every day as I am an avid tea drinker.Hope this answers your question.

I haven't put really hot liquid in it. I usually want to drink it relatively soon. BTW, you shouldn't use very hot water to brew tea as the heat can kill off the nutrients in tea.

Sure, as long as the glass is room temperature or already hot. Just don't pour it into a cold glass pitcher or any glass for that matter. Lets say you have ice tea in the pitcher and wanted hot tea, make sure you dump the ice tea and rinse the glass pitcher with room temperature water or luke warm water, then you can pour in boiling water.

No- I boil the water in a tea kettle- then I pour a little water into the tea pot to warm it. Throw the water away- then add your tea and boiling water to the tea pot. Let it brew for a few minutes then pour your perfect cup of tea! I am a Brit so am experienced tea maker.Good luck!

Not sure, never tried hot water. Maybe you could try warm water and let it sit at room temp until tea has flavored the water to your liking. Or sun tea brewed in the sun.

you add hot/boiling water to this teapot. It just acts as a vessel for brewing the tea and should not be used to heat water in.
