The Teapot Hour aims for accurate, readable writing about home coffee, tea, and slow drinks. We explain our choices plainly, make room for uncertainty, and take responsibility for keeping published information clear.
Accuracy and clarity
We check factual statements against dependable material available to us and review explanations for clarity before publication. We do not present personal taste as objective fact, or claim a method will produce identical results in every kitchen. If a point depends on a particular ingredient, tool, or technique, we aim to make that context clear.
Independence
Editorial decisions are made for the reader and the subject, not as a promise of favourable coverage. A commercial relationship does not guarantee inclusion, a particular opinion, or a positive description. We aim to keep editorial coverage distinct from material created as part of a partnership.
Corrections
If you spot an error or an unclear explanation, contact us with the relevant article and detail. We review correction requests and update material when warranted, making significant changes clear to readers where appropriate. Questions and corrections are welcome through the Contact page.
Partner material and illustrations
Paid or partner material is identified clearly where it appears so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial coverage. Some illustrations on the site may be AI-generated; when relevant, they are labelled, and they should not be mistaken for documentary photographs or evidence of a brewing result.
