Know before you buy
The scoop is designed to measure exactly one 8 oz cup of large-leaf or herbal tea. For denser or smaller-leaf teas, such as Sencha or rolled oolongs, we recommend using a half scoop to achieve the proper strength.
Yes, because it is crafted from durable stainless steel, it is safe to clean in the dishwasher. Hand washing is also a simple and effective way to maintain its finish.
The deep bowl design is intentional; it helps contain loose-leaf tea effectively, preventing spills while you transfer the leaves from your tin to your infuser or teapot.
It is highly versatile for most loose-leaf and herbal varieties. Just keep in mind that because leaf size and density vary, you may need to adjust your measurement—using a full scoop for fluffy, large leaves and a half scoop for compact, dense leaves.
