Review on Cuisipro 747057 Tea Infuser by Andrew Arneson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Surprisingly handy little tea infuser

I have to admit I was surprised at how much good design can do. It's amazing the little features some designers can come up with! I don't know who ended up thinking of including a saucer with a tea infuser so you can set it down afterwards without needing a separate plate, but they deserve some sort of commendation for being the only person to see and solved what probably should have been . obvious, but it wasn't. The pestle is great. It really speeds up brewing when you're impatient. It's the same as sitting and stirring a tea bag or swinging a brewer in water, except it's more elegant. The holes are small enough to land in the water with a minimal amount of tea leaves. This is pretty close to using a tea bag and better than the minuet brew mugs we have. It can also be washed in the dishwasher! I just take it apart, put the parts in the part of the dish rack that closes and all is good. No sign of rust or damage. You can brew two cups of tea at the same time. So you can use it in your cup or teapot. I confess I'm surprised that I can say so much about the tea infuser, but I like this one. This not only works very well, but also provides a topic of conversation!
