This is not a defect but a normal occurrence. Protecting copper from moisture can slow down tarnishing. If tarnishing occurs, the exterior can be cleaned with metal cleaners.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDepending on use, the interior of tin-lined products may take on the color of the food. Cleaning with baking soda is recommended.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor long-lasting use, wash your copper products by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent, and keep them dry.

Products such as flasks, cups and pitchers therefore do not need re-tinning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow Do I Know When the Tin Is Gone?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOver time, the tin coating on the inner surface of your copper product may wear away. If the silver-colored finish on the inside has disappeared and the reddish tone of copper is clearly visible, or if patches have opened or peeled, the tin may have thinned or worn away. In this case, re-tinning your product is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, it must be specifically noted that:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack spots or dark stains on the inner surface do not mean the tin is gone. This is usually a natural color change caused by use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs Copper Poisonous?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, copper is not poisonous.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProperly manufactured and properly used copper products are safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCopper is a mineral essential for the human body. Tin-lined copper pots, pans and flasks used in daily life are suitable for contact with food. In traditional production, the inner surface of copper products is tin-lined, and this coating controls the direct contact between copper and food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, attention must be paid to the following:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcidic foods (such as those containing lemon, tomato paste or vinegar) are not recommended for long contact with unlined copper surfaces. Therefore, quality production and regular tin maintenance are important.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn summary:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e✔️ Tin-lined and properly manufactured copper products are safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e✔️ With proper use and care, they can be used healthily for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e❌ Unlined and unmaintained products should not be preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen produced by skilled hands, copper is both a safe and healthy choice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"COPPERZ","offers":[{"title":"Copper","offer_id":67995842183220,"sku":"MturkBZ-8713647652999-bakir","price":87.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black","offer_id":67995842215988,"sku":"MturkBZ-8713647652999-siyah","price":87.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/7637\/0484\/files\/engraved-copper-ashtray-9040808.png?v=1794453189","url":"https:\/\/mallturk.com\/products\/engraved-copper-ashtray","provider":"MALLTURK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
