What is a stainless steel tea infuser?

A stainless steel tea infuser is a reusable tea filter for loose tea. This stainless steel tea infuser gives the leaves room to open in hot water, so aroma and flavour can spread into your cup or teapot.

Who is it suitable for?

This tea infuser suits you if you brew loose tea in a cup, a glass, or a teapot. The holder and drip tray make it easy to place the filter and keep your surface tidy. It is a simple choice when you want one small tool for daily use.

How do you use a stainless steel tea infuser?

Fill the filter with loose tea leaves, hang it on the rim, and pour in hot water. When the tea has steeped, lift it out and set it on the drip tray. The wide basket gives the leaves space while they brew.

Customer Questions

Does this stainless steel tea filter fit in my cup or teapot?

The tea filter has a diameter of 5.5 cm and is 7 cm high. From handle to handle it measures 10.5 cm, and it is on those handles that the filter rests on the rim of your cup, glass or teapot. Do measure the inside dimension of your cup or pot: if the opening is narrower than about 5.5 cm, this filter will not fit in it.

What is the drip tray for on this tea filter?

When the tea is ready, you take the filter out of your cup or pot and place it in the drip tray supplied. The last drops collect there, so you do not get wet rings on your table or worktop. Handy if you want to leave the tea leaves for a second steeping.

How much loose tea do I put in this tea filter?

Count on about 2 grams of loose tea per cup, roughly a level teaspoon. If you are making a whole pot, multiply that by the number of cups that go into it. This filter is deliberately roomy, so the leaves can expand and release their aroma and flavour properly: so do not press the tea down.

Is this stainless steel tea filter dishwasher safe?

Yes, this tea filter is dishwasher safe. Throw out the wet tea leaves first and give the filter a quick rinse, then no residue is left in the mesh. If tea stains or limescale build up over time, soak the filter for a while in water with cleaning vinegar and rinse it well.
