Sake Tampo (Sake warmer / server)　for 180ml (一合）

 Junshu (45°C or 113°F): This is the lowest level of warming and is known as "body temperature" warming. It is used to slightly warm sake and bring out its flavors without changing its character significantly.

Jokan (50-55°C or 122-131°F): This is considered "warm" sake and can be achieved using a chirori or by immersing the sake bottle in hot water. It is the most common way of warming sake.

Atsukan (60-65°C or 140-149°F): This is the highest level of warming and is known as "hot" sake. It is typically reserved for certain types of sake, like some cheap or low-quality varieties, as the heat can mask the flavors of more refined sake.

 

About Stainless steel Chirori

Durability: Stainless steel is known for its durability and resistance to rust and corrosion. This makes it  long-lasting and easy to maintain. It won't degrade or develop cracks over time like ceramic or earthenware options might.

Easy to Clean: Stainless steel is non-porous, which means it doesn't absorb flavours or odors. This makes it easy to clean and reuse for different types of sake without the risk of flavour contamination.

Temperature Control: Stainless steel is an excellent conductor of heat, enabling precise temperature control when warming sake. It facilitates quick and efficient heating to the desired temperature, while its ability to evenly distribute heat helps prevent overheating or uneven warming.

Versatility: Stainless steel chirori can be used over various heat sources, including open flames, stovetops, and even some grills.

It can also be fitted into a shichirin, which makes it possible to enjoy hot sake together with grilled fish.
