Review: Dump the bag and loosen up! - A simple yet effective device. If you like loose leaf tea but don't want the hassle of teapots and strainers then this is ideal. I bought the 500ml size which is perfect for one person. As it's a transparent jug you can see exactly when you've brewed for long enough and the valve release mechanism hasn't failed after a month's daily use but has remained drip free as soon as I lift it off my mug. Easy to clean afterwards as well which is another reason for buying. I now have a delicious mug of perfectly brewed Assam tea every morning without the paraphernalia and guesswork.
Review: Quick way to make great loose-leaf tea - I've often been a traditionalist when it comes to loose-leaf tea: a teapot is the way to go. But, I saw one of these devices in use in an episode of 'The Walking Dead' and i was intrigued enough to look for one online. It turns out there are several brands to choose from but they all seem basically the same. Vasy to use: Open the lid, put the desired amount of loose tea directly into the bottom of the pot, add hot/boiling water, close lid, watch for desired depth of colour for strength, place pot over mouth of cup. If your cup is smaller than the pot capacity (c.500ml in this case) then you'll have to lift the pot off to stop the tea flow. But if the amount of tea you've made is less than it will stop by itself. There is little or no drip when you lift the pot off, but a small plastic base is provided as a stand, and cleaning is easy. I tap out most of the soaked leaves into a bin and then rinse the rest out with water, pouring it over a piece of paper towel or a small strainer to capture the remaining leaves, rather than let them clog the drain. It's at least as easy, if not easier than cleaning out an infuser basket. I have been very pleased with the taste of the tea from this machine. i've detected zero plastic taint from the BPA-free pot. Overall, I've found myself going straight for this rather than my teapot now, so that must be good.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this dishwasher safe?**
A: It's safe and gets rid of the "brown stain". But last time I used the dishwasher the mesh filter had some residue of particulate dishwasher grime.

**Q: is the cup provided?**
A: NO. It is as per the picture. An effective infusion method for leaf tea particularly large leaf as all the liquor passes throught the leaf to the cup.

**Q: Does the lid come off completely?**
A: No. The lid flips up but is not removable. Overall, I find this tea maker very effective for leaf tea. I use quite a strong black tea and it does stain the inside. Soaking in a light bleach and rinsing well seems to remove most of the stain. I would be happy recommending this product

**Q: Any good for ground coffee?**
A: I haven't tried but I don't think it will work. The coffee will probably block the mesh and by the time the water drips down, it will be cold. Again, just a guess.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a great gadget and buy!
*by M***Y on 20 May 2020*

I started out looking for a cheap tea strainer due to buying boxes of flavoured teas that inevitably had at least one bag that let the tea leaves through and into my mug. However, as soon as I saw this great item, I thought this would be an even better solution and I am so glad I bought it. It does exactly what it says and means that I have enough capacity in it to enjoy two cups (250ml approx each) of my favourite night-time brew. There has been no leaking at all and it keeps my second cup nice and warm until I'm ready to drink it. As an avid tea drinker, this is going to be invaluable and I highly recommend it. Ordered one evening from Amazon and it was here the next day. Very, very impressed with both the item and the super fast delivery.
