Care Instruction: -
When cleaning a copper lagan with tin coating, follow these steps to ensure its longevity and performance:
- Use a mild dish soap and warm water to clean the lagan after each use.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could damage the tin coating.
- To remove stubborn food residue from the lagan, heat some water in the vessel to loosen it. Then, gently scrub the surface with a soft sponge or cloth. This will help preserve the tin coating and extend its lifespan.
- Rinse the lagan thoroughly with water to remove any soap residue.
- Dry the lagan immediately after washing to prevent water spots and tarnishing.
- Avoid soaking the lagan for extended periods, as prolonged exposure to water can damage the tin coating.
- Periodically apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the tin-coated surface to maintain its luster and prevent corrosion.
By following these care instructions, you can keep your copper lagan with tin coating clean and in optimal condition for years to come.

Copper Lagan – Frequently Asked Questions
Is Copper Lagan non-stick?
Yes. The tin coating (kalai) inside the Copper Lagan makes it naturally non-stick and easy to cook in, without the need for synthetic coatings.
Is it safe to cook all types of food in Copper Lagan?
Absolutely. A tin-coated Copper Lagan is safe for cooking all types of dishes. For deep frying, kalai is not always required since oils and fats do not react with copper or brass.
How often does Copper Lagan need re-coating (kalai)?
The duration depends on usage. With regular cooking, kalai may be needed once in 10–12 months. For convenience, you can also use our DIY Kalai Kit to re-tin the vessel at home.
Interesting Facts About Copper Lagan
Since copper is a good conductor of heat, food should always be cooked on medium or low flame. This not only preserves the kalai but also saves gas.
Avoid leaving the Lagan empty on the flame without oil or ingredients, as this can cause the tin lining to fade faster.
