Can I put this on a burner to heat up water?

No, once filled with hot water I think it will stay heated on a teapot heat holding warmer I saw on Amazon. This set would fly off the shelves if it could absorb cooking burners. Nice thought though.

No, it's a ceramic (china) pot. You pour boiling water into it to steep your tea. A nice match for this set is a Japanese-style cast iron tea kettle, which you can also find on Amazon. Or, I like a Revere stainless steel copper-bottom tea kettle.

Adam, Tea pots are for only steeping tea as others mention. Tea Kettle is only what you put on a burner.

No, it is for putting a tea bag in and filling with hot water. It is like what they serve you tea in at a Chinese or Japanese restaurant. It is not designed for use on a stove burner.

I gave mine away as a gift, but I would not. It is stunningly beautiful though!

No!! I think you mean on a burner. No! You boil water in a pot and pour it into this.

Yes, just make sure the valve and thermometer are sealed up properly. Make sure you have a big burner too.

Yes, you may. Just move your settings from timer to "on" position. Remenber this is a small pump, you can't have hot water right away.

Being of cast iron, I would think that you could use it on a stove, but it does not appear that it is to be used that way. It is rather small to be heated on a stove. It seems to be more decorative than just being used to heat water on a stove. I would say No, to using it on a stove, or maybe just over a low heat.

Heat in water for one hour. Remove from hot water and place directly on a burner for an additional three hours. Your looking for 400 plus degrees on the matetial. Do not use anything other than a hotplate burner. This can explode.

I heat water in another container and pour it into the teapot. I don't think you would want the flames to touch the sides, and it is rather small, so it may not fit well on a gas burner.

You can't heat water on it. The casing is too cage like. I've used keosene several years old and it woeks. There may be an additive that can be used to insure it stays good.

I would not. It is microwave safe, but I would not subject it to the direct heat of a burner.

I tried it out and a magnet stuck to the bottom section that sits directly on the burner and holds the water in. Hope this helps.

It's not meant to go on the burner. You can pour boiling water into it but it's to be used as a teapot on the table, not for heating.

Yes, but it is not recommended. When I first got it I did heat it directly on the burner, but I don't anymore

Can the range server be placed on a direct gas flame on the stove. I want to boil water in it?

I believe that you could, as the basin the burner fits inside is fillable, though you may like to check with mfr for any possible concerns about high heat retention or other feedback they may have, as I did not try this personally so can't speak to it from experience. Wish you well and an excellent 4th :)

Not if you want it hot. We used it for a hot water urn and the water was lukewarm.

Probably, yes. It is Ike a small cast iron skillet with a 2 foot handle. You can put it on any normal heat source. But on a stove it would not be very practical with the long handle. And to me part of the fun is using it with a camp fire.

If you read my review, you know that I have two of them now. The old one I fixed...well I make it work. The new one works just fine. I use pots much larger than the diameter of the burner but also use a chef's pan and a three quart sauce pan. When using much larger pots, then entire burner heats its 'footprint' on the bottom of the pot. Usually, when a burner is not doing this, the burner itself has gone bad. So, technically I said yes to your question. However, a very large pot should not be used on this device. A very large pot holds too much water and ingredients and the weight alone will eventually cause damage to this device. I wish you the best. HJ
