FAQs
Can I use this for larger pots?
The warmer is designed for pots with a base up to 16 cm in diameter. Larger pots may be unstable and may not heat evenly.
Is the wooden base heat-resistant?
The wooden base is designed to hold the unit together and provide a stylish look; however, the heat is primarily focused through the stainless steel insert.
What type of fuel does it use?
It uses a standard tea light candle as its heat source.
Can I put the warmer in the dishwasher?
No, the components are not dishwasher safe. Hand washing with a damp cloth is recommended to preserve the wood.
Is this suitable for outdoor use?
It can be used outdoors, but ensure it is on a flat, wind-sheltered surface so the tea light candle does not blow out.
Troubleshooting
Teapot is not staying warm enough
Ensure you are using a standard-sized tea light candle and that it is fully lit. Using a pot with a very thick bottom can sometimes slow heat transfer.
Stainless steel platform is stained
Use a specialized stainless steel cleaner or a mix of water and mild dish soap with a soft, non-abrasive cloth to gently lift stains.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Tuto Warmer is straightforward: place it on a level, heat-safe surface and position your teapot or heat-safe bowl centered on the stainless steel disc. It is compatible with most circular teapots that have a base diameter of 16 cm or less.
To ensure longevity:
- Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel platform with a damp cloth after it has completely cooled down. Use a gentle cleanser if tea residue accumulates.
- Wood Care: Keep the wooden base dry. Avoid submerging the unit in water or using abrasive sponges that may scratch the finish.
- Safety: Never leave a lit tea light unattended and ensure the warmer is used in a well-ventilated area.
