How Should the Product Be Cared For and Used?
- Wash by hand with liquid dish soap.
- Do not wash in a dishwasher.
- Never let it come into contact with bleach.
- After washing, dry it with a soft cloth.
- Do not clean it with hard scouring pads.
- Due to the nature of copper, copper-colored products can oxidize. 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.
- Depending on use, the interior of tin-coated products may take on the color of the food. Cleaning with baking soda is recommended.
- For long-lasting use, wash your copper products by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent, and keep them dry. Do not expose them to very high heat.
How Do I Know the Tin Is Wearing Off?
The tin coating on the inner surface of a copper product can wear away over time. If the silver-colored finish on the inside disappears and the reddish tone of the copper becomes clearly visible, or if patches open up or peel off, the tin may have thinned or worn away. In this case, re-tinning the product is recommended.
However, it should be specifically noted that:
Black 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.
Does Copper Need to Be Re-Tinned?
- Copper products exposed to fire should be re-tinned periodically (on average every 3–5 years).
- Copper products not exposed to fire will not need re-tinning.
- Water is not acidic, so it does not corrode tin. Products such as flasks, cups and pitchers therefore do not need re-tinning.
Is Copper Poisonous?
No, copper is not poisonous.
Properly manufactured and properly used copper products are safe.
Copper is a mineral essential for the human body. Tin-lined copper pots, pans and flasks used in daily life are suitable for food contact. In traditional production, the inner surface of copper products is tinned; this coating keeps copper from coming into direct contact with food.
However, the following should be kept in mind:
Acidic foods (such as those containing lemon, tomato paste or vinegar) are not recommended for prolonged contact with an untinned copper surface. Therefore, quality production and regular tin maintenance are important.
In summary:
✔️ Tin-lined, properly manufactured copper products are safe.
✔️ With proper use and care, they can be used healthily for years.
❌ Untinned and poorly maintained products should not be preferred.
Copper, when produced by skilled hands, is both a safe and a healthy choice.
