      Here’s an interesting, humourous  article on being a tea snob somewhere in China.  It was translated by the site’s author and remains a good read:

      Also, we need a “general” section on the forum for things (like this!) that don’t fit the above sections.

      :-))) I am so deprived that I can only afford an electric kettle for tea. I don’t think I can afford any coal burning stove, not to mention olive pit coal. Not rich enough to sit there whole day waiting for the water to heat up :-))))

      Using a big cha pan in nice wood is not so bad taste; it really depends on the other elements in your environment too. I have one.

      Not sure what a cha pan is; tea table?

      I currently use a microwave; haven’t even invested in an electric kettle yet 😀
