Know before you buy
The strainer is attached to a central rod that passes through the lid. By pulling the knob on top, you can lift the tea leaves out of the water once your desired steeping time is reached, preventing the tea from becoming bitter.
Yes, the pull-up design is specifically engineered for re-steeping. Since you can easily lift the leaves out of the water, you can keep them in the strainer and lower them back into the glass bowl for a second or third infusion without over-extracting the first batch.
The olive wood is treated for durability, but it should be hand-washed to maintain its finish. Avoid soaking the wood components in water or placing them in the dishwasher to prevent warping or cracking.
Borosilicate glass is highly durable and resistant to thermal shock, making it ideal for boiling water. While it is stronger than standard glass, it should still be handled with care to avoid chips or cracks from impacts.
Yes, the borosilicate glass bowl is dishwasher safe. However, we recommend hand-washing the lid and strainer components to preserve the olive wood and ensure the stainless steel mechanism remains in top condition.
The strainer is designed with a fine mesh suitable for most loose-leaf teas. If you are brewing very fine tea dust or herbal powders, you may notice some sediment in the bottom of the glass, but it is highly effective for standard whole-leaf varieties.
