To maintain the premium finish and the integrity of the smart components, here is the dishwasher safety guide for the SAKI Turkish Tea Maker Pro:
The Pots (Upper and Lower)
- Bottom Kettle (Stainless Steel): Not dishwasher safe. The bottom kettle contains the heating element and electrical pins. Submerging it in water or putting it in a dishwasher will cause permanent electrical damage.
- Top Teapot: Hand-washing is best to preserve the exterior finish, especially if you have the Matte Black or other colored Pro models.
The Lids and Infuser
- Magnetic Infuser (Mesh Basket): Yes, dishwasher safe. The stainless steel mesh can be placed in the utensil basket or top rack of the dishwasher.
- Lids: Not recommended for the dishwasher. The lids contain the magnetic attachment points. High heat and harsh dishwasher detergents can weaken the magnets or damage the seal over time.
Recommended Cleaning Method
For the longest lifespan of your tea maker, follow these simple steps:
- Hand-wash the pots and lids using warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge.
- Avoid abrasive pads (like steel wool), which can scratch the stainless steel and the glass.
- Wipe the base and the exterior of the bottom kettle with a slightly damp cloth only.
