Yes...It is a small 5 oz pot and I brewed some tea, then poured it out into
the bowl (that I soaked the pot in) and then did a second steep, and
completely covered the pot and let it set until the water was tepid...then I
couldn't stand it anymore...I cleaned up...dried the pot and brewed some tea
for its intended purpose, several steeps...worked okay for me...
