Know before you buy
Yes, the Symbi infuser is designed for compatibility with most standard-sized mugs. Its basket shape and handle are engineered to sit securely across the rim of typical tea cups.
The high-quality stainless steel mesh is designed to effectively strain standard loose-leaf teas and herbs. While it works perfectly for most blends, very fine herbal powders may occasionally leave minor residue.
Because it is made from durable stainless steel, you can simply rinse the basket under warm water after discarding the leaves. It is also dishwasher safe for a more thorough cleaning.
Absolutely. The basket is ideal for steeping dried herbs, flowers, or fruit infusions. Its design allows for full water circulation, ensuring you get the most flavor out of any botanical blend.
The handle is designed to remain outside the water line, which helps it stay cool to the touch. However, if you are using a very deep mug or boiling water, we recommend using caution when lifting the basket.
