The Korkmaz Efendi Teapot Set (Model: A221) is a classically designed Turkish double-teapot system that focuses on high volume and ergonomic comfort. It is often favored by larger households due to its substantial 3.5 Liter total capacity. ## Technical Specifications Feature Details Model Number A221 Total Capacity 3.5 Liters (approx. 118 oz) Top Teapot 1.1 Liters Bottom Kettle 2.4 Liters Material 18/10 Cr-Ni Stainless Steel Base Technology Solar Base (Triple Capsule) ## Key Features Maximum Capacity: With a 2.4L bottom kettle, the Efendi is slightly larger than the "Retro" or "Nostalgia" sets, making it ideal for hosting gatherings of 10–12 people without needing a refill. Solar Base System: This set uses Korkmaz’s signature triple-layer capsule base, which provides the highest heat transfer on all hob types. It is designed to save both time and energy by heating up rapidly and retaining heat long after the stove is off. Full Induction Compatibility: Unlike older or cheaper models, the Efendi works perfectly on induction, gas, electric, ceramic, and halogen stoves. Ergonomic Stainless Handles: The handles are crafted from stainless steel but are specifically designed to be heat-resistant and ergonomic, ensuring a safe, non-burning grip without the need for gloves. High-Gloss Polishing: The exterior surfaces are carefully polished to a mirror shine that is both hygienic and long-lasting. ## Usage Tips Traditional Brewing: For the best results, place the loose tea in the top pot and allow the steam from the bottom kettle to "warm" the leaves for a few minutes before adding the hot water. Double-Lid Design: The set typically includes a lid for both the top and bottom portions, allowing the lower 2.4L kettle to be used as a standalone water boiler. Maintenance: While the set is dishwasher safe, hand-washing with a soft sponge is recommended to maintain the high-gloss "Inox" finish and prevent water spots.
