I always thought you were supposed to leave a teapot like this :huh: - something to do with the tannin build up making the best flavoured cup of tea.

Yes, I was always told this, however I live in a hard water area and so my teapot not only gets stained, but coated in limescale - and bits of limescale in your tea really ruins it

I use the soda crystals method myself and have to do the pot around every month. I leave it at least 24 hours - so I have a spare pot too

I find nothing beats one of those laundry booster powders like Oxy stain remover. I used LIDL's own brand and it works a treat.
