Iron Chagama Maintenance Guidelines
Cleaning After Each Use: After using, ensure the iron chagama is emptied and rinsed with warm water. Avoid using detergents to prevent residue build-up.
Drying Properly: Thoroughly dry the outside with a soft cloth. Leave the lid off to allow the inside to air dry completely, preventing rust and mold.
Handling Cast Iron Chagama: To prevent rust, regularly dry the chagama completely after each use. Occasionally heating the empty chagama can help evaporate moisture. Some practitioners apply a small amount of tea oil to the exterior as a protective measure.
Preventing Limescale Buildup: Boil a mixture of water and vinegar inside the chagama to remove limescale, especially important in areas with hard water.
Avoiding Thermal Shock: Avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent damage to the iron. Gradually heat and cool the chagama.
Storing Properly: Store the chagama in a dry place with the lid off, avoiding direct sunlight or damp environments.
Regular Inspections: Inspect the chagama regularly for signs of rust, wear, or damage. Address any issues promptly to maintain its condition.
Professional Maintenance: For significant maintenance needs, seek professional care or advice, especially for high-quality iron chagamas.
