Brew, strain, then pour into the small cups. After brewing, the cups stack on or inside the main vessel so the whole set packs into the case. The case is shaped to the kuaike set, so the pieces do not rattle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is falangcai-style decoration?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFalangcai is a Chinese style of colorful, enamel-like painted decoration on porcelain, often with flowers and gold outlines. On this set the colored pattern is fired onto the porcelain surface, giving bright, raised-looking motifs on a white body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis set serves one to three people. Pack it for the office, a hotel room, a road trip, a picnic or a campsite, or give it as a tea gift to someone who travels often. Bring your own loose leaf tea and hot water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRinse every piece with warm water after use and let them dry completely before packing them into the case, so the case stays fresh. Avoid sudden hot-to-cold temperature changes, and hand wash to protect the decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is a host cup?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe host cup is the slightly larger cup for the person brewing. The two smaller cups are for guests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many cups does one brew fill?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe largest vessel holds about 45 ml and each cup about 45 ml, so one brew fills roughly 1 cups. Gongfu-style tea is brewed in several short rounds, so the set easily serves one to three people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the travel case protect the cups?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The pieces stack together and fit inside the padded case, which keeps them from knocking against each other in a bag or suitcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompare more \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/travel-tea-sets\"\u003etravel tea sets\u003c\/a\u003e, or browse \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/dehua-white-porcelain\"\u003eDehua white porcelain\u003c\/a\u003e, or read \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/explore-teaware\/how-to-use-a-travel-tea-set\"\u003ehow to use a travel tea set\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tealibere","offers":[{"title":"Peony","offer_id":67916929401108,"sku":"MS4095578207-01","price":64.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0942\/7353\/6276\/files\/peony-falangcai-style-kuaike-travel-set-00.webp?v=1793163184","url":"https:\/\/tealibere.com\/products\/peony-falangcai-style-kuaike-travel-set","provider":"Tealibere","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
