Quick, easy and no mess

| My wife bought one of these when we were vacationing in Eureka Springs a year ago, and I thought it was another gizmo to add to the cupboard. Was I wrong. I started using it more and more, mostly for green tea, and thought it would be good to have one for work as well. So I ordered one from Cooking.com and use it all the time. I just put the tea leaves in the container, add hot water, let it sit for 5 minutes, then set it on top of my cup. The valve on the bottom opens up and the tea pours into the cup, with out the leaves (with the green tea I buy from China, the leaves are full leaves, and I can get another 2 cups out of it, so refilling is easy). The nice thing is, I can use it for coffee as well as black tea. The coffee, especially if you grind your own, tastes so much better. To clean, I just invert in a trash can, and rinse out what's left. |
One of the products that makes you say, "Oh! That's how it should be!"

| I got a pot of tea at a cafe recently and they served it up in an Ingenuitea. Within about 5 seconds, I realized this was the perfect way to make tea - or coffee, actually, and that this is how tea should be made. If you like loose tea and tea balls are awkward - not to mention hot to take out, etc. - the Ingenuitea is the BEST. No drip, no mess, no nothin'... simply tea. Ingenious, indeed! |
Perfect? Maybe! If you like tea, buy this!

My only complaint is that it only makes 16 ozs. at a time. Since you're using loose tea, or even bags (it works with both), it would be easy to brew more. Maybe it would take longer to heat, though.
In any case, this teapot works very well. I have no complaints. It cleans easily and does a great job.
Oh, maybe one other complaint... the only way to stop the tea brewing (once it's done, is to completely empty the teapot. So, if you're making tea and all of it won't fit in the cup, you have to put the tea in some other container or it will become bitter.
Something cool... I make the tea and then put it over ice... instant iced tea! Great for hot days.
Highly recommended product. |
Now this is something to write home to mom about!

| I also first saw the ingenuiTEA at a local cafe. They use about 8 or 9 of them to brew up their loose leaf teas. It is the best system that I've seen/used. It really is easy. The only issue I've noticed is that it becomes stained quite easy, but hey, that's what tea does! It can easily be washed with a SMALL amount of bleach and a lot of water. We also use ours in the dishwasher and it's held up perfectly for over a year. This is also a fantastic deal on amazon. |
Perfect way to brew tea

| I just purchased one of these after using a friend's, and I love it. This is the perfect way to make loose leaf tea for one. Unlike with tea balls or spoon-size infusers, the leaves have plenty of room to unfurl as the tea steeps and there's no clasp to come undone. Unlike with basket infusers, there's no dripping or mess when it's time to remove the leaves. You simply get perfectly brewed tea with no mess every time. I can't recommend this enough. |
