I have had this teapot about 3 months and in this last month it has been in constant use and yesterday these stains appeared, is it rust? Should I throw away the kettle or can it be saved?

    Even if it is, some iron oxide wouldn’t hurt. Some cast-iron teapots even depend on it for improving taste, I’ve heard.

      Though there are different flavors of iron oxide. Gun bluing is iron oxide, but so is rust. One is protective and the other is detrimental.
