Just as you wrote, the chill autumn weather makes shupu immensely appealing. I was up at 4.30 a.m. yesterday, huddled over my teatable in the pre-dawn gloom, enjoying a Hobbeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10719619695211038389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-69939544132003501872013-10-13T19:05:38.432+01:002013-10-13T19:05:38.432+01:00Hi Hobbes , did you purchase a brick back in 2007 ...Hi Hobbes , did you purchase a brick back in 2007 ? If you did and have not drunk any in the last couple of years , I recommend you revisit . I purchased two bricks about five years ago . Had a couple of sessions when it first arrived . Then basically forgot about it until about two or three weeks ago . Quite a transformation has taken place ! It now has a lovely calm aged flavour - old wood , Tofu Misohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14534009023660477264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-63681874642655229212007-04-27T20:18:00.000+01:002007-04-27T20:18:00.000+01:00If you notice the photographs under my Tenbu/Fuka ...If you notice the photographs under my Tenbu/Fuka post on my blog, my similar tray to yours is showing signs of neglect and use. The wood is losing some color and white inner wood is showing here and there. I think I will need to refinish it with a common household furniture finish, which is available at any home improvement store. This should add a good degree of water resistability, too.~ Phyllhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06089209028096768776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-57445585095413438372007-04-26T17:48:00.000+01:002007-04-26T17:48:00.000+01:00Samurai,Hold onto that kidney - the pot is availab...Samurai,<BR/><BR/>Hold onto that kidney - the pot is available from YS for a trifling $15, or thereabouts. Scott is very fair with his pricing, and his descriptions: it's a robust pot, and won't win any pottery competitions, but is highly pleasant to use. The pouring action is prompt (unmatched in our collection, except the Xishi pot from Teamasters), and the lid fits well. Well worth a look.<Hobbeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10719619695211038389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-753589427119541238.post-89763156611913640402007-04-26T11:36:00.000+01:002007-04-26T11:36:00.000+01:00I think I have basically the same tea sea, but wit...I think I have basically the same tea sea, but with a darker wood.
