Each purple clay pot carries its unique story and charm, waiting to be opened. The way to open a new purple clay pot is quite simple, just gently rinse the white quartz sand in the pot with clean water, about two times, and then rinse it slightly with boiling water, and the pot will start to accompany you through a wonderful tea time. 
The biggest feature of purple sand is its strong adsorption, whether it is in the pot or other substances, it can be easily adsorbed. However, if it is cooked with tofu, etc., purple sand will easily absorb these flavors. Not only can this cause damage to the pot itself, but it can also seriously affect the taste of the brewed tea. Therefore, we should note that the quality of purple sand actually depends mainly on the mud and production process. 
Nowadays, many pot lovers pursue the so-called "purple sand master", but they are often lost in the exaggerated propaganda of merchants, believing that only the master's purple sand is the best. But in fact, the so-called "masters" are often just a means of propaganda for businesses, and the purpose is to raise the standard. Could it be that in your mind, the pot of the "master" is only worth a few hundred, a few thousand?This may be a reflection of the market and consumer vanity. 
Therefore, I hope that every pot friend can look at it rationally and not blindly follow the trend. It's a good thing to like purple sand, but the premise is to see more, understand more, communicate more, learn more, improve your appreciation ability, cultivate your perception of pots, and learn to identify basic purple sand mud. When you look at the works of those "masters" again, perhaps your vision and appreciation level has reached a higher level.
