Frequently Asked Questions
Kansa utensils are known for their ability to retain and enhance the nutritional value of food. Studies suggest that using kansa Dinnerware can help retain up to 90% more nutrients compared to other materials. This is due to kansa's unique properties — it supports the preservation of essential vitamins and minerals, helping to keep your meals nutritious.
Atya Luxury Kansa products are crafted using a traditional method that involves hammering a sheet of metal through 24–25 operations to create a single product. We ensure smooth edges and high durability by refining certain parts and finishing touches, resulting in a long-lasting and superior product.
Both are valid techniques for creating Kansa products. Sheet products tend to have a slightly rougher finish but offer greater durability. On the other hand, casted/mould products have a smoother finish but are more prone to scratches and require careful handling over time.
Our Kansa products are made using traditional techniques from over 100 years ago, which involve heating the metal sheets. This process enhances the product's quality and durability, resulting in a natural charcoal finish on the exterior.
Don't worry about the charcoal finish; it naturally fades over time with regular use. The utensil will eventually develop a consistent finish that matches the original look.

No, the black charcoal finish on the outside is completely safe. It is the natural colour of Kansa that develops when the products are heated, with no additional colours or chemicals applied.
No, Atya Luxury Kansa should not be used for cooking. The metal alloy, composed of 78% copper and 22% tin, can break down if exposed to high heat. According to Ayurveda, altering the ratio of these metals through heating is not recommended, as it can affect the metal's properties and safety.
Avoid Extended Storage: Do not store food in Kansa utensils for more than 2–3 hours to prevent any adverse reactions with the metal.
Cleaning Method: Use a Scotch-Brite pad with a mild liquid detergent to clean the utensils. After washing, dry them with a soft cloth to keep them looking their best.

Yes, kansa utensils are generally dishwasher safe. However, to maintain their shine and prevent any potential dulling, it's recommended to use a gentle cycle and avoid harsh detergents. For the best care, hand washing with mild soap and warm water is still preferred.
Brass cookware retains more than 90% of nutrients in food, compared to only 13% retention with aluminum or PTFE non-stick utensils. The superior heat conductivity of brass ensures more even cooking and better preservation of essential nutrients.
Yes, the tin coating on the Brass Cookware makes them non-stick and easy to use. This coating provides a smooth surface that prevents food from sticking, making your cooking experience more enjoyable and hassle-free.
Yes, it is generally safe to cook most types of food in brass cookware. However, brass can react with acidic foods like tomatoes, vinegar, or citrus, which may cause the food to take on a metallic taste. To avoid this, brass cookware is often lined with a tin coating, making it safe for all types of cooking, including acidic dishes. Always ensure the tin coating is intact for the best cooking experience.
The tin (kalai) coating on brass cookware typically needs to be reapplied every 12 to 18 months, depending on how frequently you use it. Signs that it's time for a new coating include visible wear, dark spots, or food starting to stick more easily. Regular maintenance and gentle cleaning can help prolong the life of the coating.
Yes, brass and copper are excellent conductors of heat, which means they heat up quickly. This efficiency can help you save on gas and energy, making brass utensils a smart and sustainable choice for your kitchen.
Always avoid leaving brass utensils on the gas without oil, as this can cause the tin (kalai) coating to melt, leading to quicker wear and tear. Proper care — including using oil and avoiding high heat without food — ensures your utensils last longer.
No, these metals cannot be used on induction cooktops since they are non-magnetic.
No, Atya Luxury's Storage and Serveware Brass is not tin-coated. It is completely safe to use without any need for tin coating. Utensils can be safely stored in this brass without concern. Still unsure? Contact Us.
Yes, brass and copper make excellent containers for food storage. Their natural properties help deter small insects, keeping your ingredients fresh and pest-free. This makes them ideal for maintaining the quality of stored food.
Yes, brass storage containers are beneficial for keeping food fresh. Their natural properties help deter insects and pests, making them an effective choice for maintaining the quality and freshness of your ingredients.
Avoid storing salt, tamarind, or any sour substances in brass utensils. Since the masala box is not tin-coated, these items can react with the brass and cause your spices or condiments to turn green over time. This reaction may compromise the quality of your spices.
To clean brass utensils, use regular dishwashing soap for the interior. For the exterior, use Pitambari powder or a homemade paste made from flour (atta), vinegar or lemon juice, and salt. This method will help retain the shine and keep your brass utensils in excellent condition.
No, brass utensils should not be washed in a dishwasher. The harsh detergents and high temperatures can damage the brass and cause it to tarnish more quickly. To maintain their quality and appearance, it's best to hand wash brass utensils with mild soap and warm water.
Copper drinkware helps eliminate microorganisms like molds, fungi, algae, and bacteria, making it effective for water storage while ensuring cleanliness.
The best time to consume water from copper vessels is in the morning. Drinking water stored in copper first thing in the day maximizes its benefits.
To clean copper drinkware, use a mild soap and warm water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that can damage the copper's finish. For tarnish removal, use a copper polish or a mixture of lemon juice and baking soda. Regular cleaning and polishing help maintain the shine and health benefits of your copper drinkware.
