Why Choose a Larger Tea Ball?
When brewing loose tea or herbs, space matters. Leaves and cut herbs absorb water and expand as they steep. A larger infuser gives the plant material more room while allowing hot water to circulate throughout the tea ball.
For best results, do not pack the tea ball full. Leave plenty of space for the herbs or tea leaves to expand and move as they steep.
The fine stainless-steel mesh helps contain small pieces of plant material while allowing water to flow through the infuser.
Great for Loose Herbs & Tea
- Loose-leaf tea
- Cut and sifted herbs
- Root pieces
- Bark
- Twigs
- Berries
- Larger seeds
- Herbal tea blends
Not recommended for powdered herbs. Fine powders may pass through the mesh.
Simple to Use
Place your loose tea or herbs inside the strainer without overfilling it. Secure the clasp, place the tea ball into your teapot, and hook the chain over the edge.
Add appropriately heated water and steep according to the type of tea or herb you are preparing. When the desired strength is reached, remove the tea ball.
Empty the used herbs and rinse the strainer thoroughly after use.
Easy to Clean & Reuse
The stainless-steel construction makes this tea infuser durable and reusable. Rinse promptly after brewing to prevent plant material from drying inside the mesh.
It is dishwasher safe, although hand washing and thorough drying are recommended to help keep the strainer and clasp in good condition.
3.6-Inch Size – Ideal for Teapots
At 3.6 inches in diameter, this is considerably larger than many standard tea-ball infusers. The extra room makes it a practical choice when brewing a pot of loose-leaf tea or bulk herbs rather than just a single small cup.
