Take precision tea steeping to new heights with this fine stainless steel tea basket. Numerous micro holes line the walls of this structured metal filter allowing for three critical processes that lead to great-tasting tea: 1) cross-flow in a large volume basket releases full-bodied tea infusions, 2) fine filtering so that even the smallest leaf bits and herbals, like rooibos, don't escape into your infusion, and 3) rapid draining when your infusion is complete allows for precise steeping and re-steeping. Go ahead and turn any mug into your tea mug, and start steeping like a boss!

Jacob O. ★★★★★

The micro holes really do the trick—my sencha came out clear with zero grit, and the basket holds its shape even after a vigorous rinse. Steeping feels more controlled than my old ball infuser, and cleanup takes seconds.

Kevin ★★★★★

I’ve tried loose leaf in a teapot and those little ball infusers, but this basket’s structured walls keep the leaves from getting crushed while the micro holes let the water flow through evenly. It’s easy to lift out and rinse, and my morning brew comes out bolder without any grit at the bottom. Jus

John G. ★★★★★

The micro holes really do the job—my tea comes out clear with zero grit at the bottom, and the basket holds its shape even when I pack it tight. Steeping feels more controlled than my old ball infuser, and cleanup is just a quick rinse under the tap.
