For this post I wanted to give a quick review of various tools used to brew tea. Each have their own purposeful uses and are good for different occasions. Click on the photos to jump to the product page and of course leave a question of comment on the bottom of this page.
 |
Disposable Filter Pro: Convenient, unbleached, and perfect for a lazy day. Con: The filter can be restrictive to creating a full bodied brew of tea. |
|
 |
Tea Clamp Pro: Easy to clean, perfect for an individual cup of tea Con: restrictive for large leaf teas |
|
 |
Tea pot with infuser Pro: great for brewing multiple pots of tea Con: The spout will need to be cleaned with a brush at least once a month |
|
 |
Gravity Infuser Pro: The best for allowing your leaves to fully brew, fun to watch, and easy to clean Con: must be cleaned within hour to avoid stains.
|
|
 |
French Press Pro: reliable time tested option, the plunger helps to control the strength of your brew Con: the filter can be a little difficult to clean with small leaf teas |
|
 |
Strainer Pro: great for catching loose leaves from a tea pot Con: nothing! |
|
 |
Novelty Teaware - AVOID!!! Pro: Looks cool Con: Not practical, difficult to clean, can be restrictive in steeping. I (Eli) personally avoid using this type of teaware because of the difficulty of use and therefore do not sell these items because it is something that I do not believe in. |
