Product Description

Turkish style double kettles are very hard to find both online and in stores. Break out of the old tea routine by owning a double kettle.

Directions for using the double kettle to make Turkish black tea:

To make the Turkish black tea like the Turks do you will need two kettles of different sizes: a big and a small one. The big kettle must be made of metal and the small one can be made of metal or ceramic.(in this case, ours is 18/10 stainless steel)

First fill with water the big kettle and place it at the stove. Then put the small kettle above the big kettle. At the small kettle put black tea (the measure of black tea is a dessert spoon for each person). Light the stove. While the water is boiling in the big kettle the second small kettle will also be warmed. Please notice that the small kettle contains only black tea and it does not contain water.

After the water boiled, you should put this water on the small kettle where there you have the black tea. (The measure of the water is relative to the number of persons who will drink the tea. For example, if just two people wants to drink tea you should add a little bit of water, if there are more people you must put more water).

Now you must wait 15 minutes more or less, this is necessary so that the tea can cook. You will see that after 15 minutes the tea stays in the bottom of the kettle, this means that the tea can be served.

Note: They can also be used as two separate tea kettles. Both come with their own lids when not stacking for all-in-one use. Like getting two tea kettles for one price. An excellent value!
* Beautiful, unique design. An interesting conversation piece in your kitchen.

This review is from: 18/10 STAINLESS STEEL TURKISH SAMOVAR STYLE DOUBLE TEA KETTLE & POT

I got this for my parents to replace their discolored Turkish teapot they brought back from Istanbul. Theirs was exceptional quality, very heavy gauge metal, and fine workmanship. This one works fine, but it is flimsy sheet metal compared to the original. The price was probably 50% less than their original teapot. This was one of the few available at the time on Amazon. If a better one was available, I would have paid the difference.
