Questions & Answers
Question : Some suggestions to get rid on rust on a steel tea strainer safely...?
Please and thank you. I am attached to my strainer because I cannot find another with markings inside for loose tea measurements.....
Answer:
I think that is not a rust because still shouldn’t get rusty , it is the stain of tea, so leave it for a 5m or 15m into the mixture of a little drop of thick bleach and water , you can also put your spoons or coffee mug in that mix to become shiny, after that wash with washing up liquid

Question : Tea strainers, infusers, kettles, etc...?
What is the difference between a tea strainer and infuser? If I have some loose leaf tea, and I don't want any large bits floating around in my cup, which should I use, the infuser or strainer? Are they the same thing? If I buy one, should I get a certain type of metal? Are some non-toxic, and others toxic? Chrome, brass, aluminum, copper, etc...Also, do most tea kettles come with some sort of strainer in the spout or somewhere inside the kettle? Is a tea pot the same thing as a kettle?I'm asking because I have some loose leaf tea I really want to try, but I need a way of seeping it inside the water, but without getting a lot of it IN the water. A few small particles are fine, but no big chunks.Thank you so much!
Answer:
There's a small teashop that I go to to purchase my teas and they also sell teaballs/infusers. They're really simple and will wind up saving you money in the long run as opposed to coffee filters. Your standard tea infuser will run anywhere from $1.99-$12.95, depending on size and manufacturer. Also there are teapots that have infusers with them that run about $20 or so. And if you're worried about toxic materials I have included a link to a website that specializes in non-toxic items. I would suggest looking up teas in your phonebook and then going to one of the local stores and asking one of the attendants to advise you on the best infuser as well.

Question : Tea strainers?
My tea strainer is one of those mesh ones. But my favorite tea (which I haven't been able to find in bags, only loose) is very fine, and half of it goes right through the mesh. Do coffee strainers work for tea? I don't drink coffee, so I don't want to bother buying a bunch of them if it's not going to work. Or any other suggestions?
Answer:
i have both of these itemsThe Ingenuitea pictured here http://www.adagio.com/Tea infuser from Crate and Barrel http://www.crateandbarrel.com/family.aspx?c=725&f=23942&q=tea&fromLocation=Search&DIMID=400001&Searc hPage=2both are sure to catch your tea, but I prefer the Ingenuitea. It's such a great itemI suppose you could use coffee filters, but if you will drink tea for a long time, invest in one of these items.

Question : How do you pour loose tea without leaves going through the strainer?
I serve afternoon tea at a very classy hotel. Usually we serve the tea in the tea pot with a bag so that we know no leave will go through to the tea and there won't be a lot of mess to clean up. Well, I'd like to serve tea loose but lately when I do some of the leaves still get through the strainer and seeing the leaves floating in the guests tea cup looks so unprofessional and unappetizing. What can I do?
Answer:
Tea expands in water, while it's dry it falls through the holes in the strainer. I think it's better to let the leaves float free & pour through the strainer (now they are expanded & easily caught.You could always try a French press. It gives the leaves room to float around as well as a little show when you press the leaves down.

Question : How long does loose leaf tea keep?
I was very excited this morning to find my tub of loose leaf teas and strainers! However some of the tea is relatively ancient. It's all in bags and stored in an airtight container in the back of a cupboard, however some of the teas may be approaching their fifth or sixth birthdays.I don't think tea ages quite like wine, so what should I do with all of this? Is is still good? Still safe?
Answer:
My first reaction to this is that it is probably safe to use... however, to make certain-sure, why not Google the brand name for its website and see if a FAQ or 'contact us' feature will get you an answer from, so to speak, the teapot's spout!For what it's worth, aging the leaves prior to rolling is part of the tea processor's procedure...and something that dry, lacking animal or dairy components, is probably fine. Flavour, however, is autrechose! I've had a big tub of Earl Gray's breakfast tea for 3 years and it's still de-lish-us.

Question : How can I get more of the flavor into my tea?
i went to Teavana yesterday.. and i got this tea which was really good at the store.. but when i tried to put it in the strainer/tea holder and make some for myself.. it tasted really watered down..basically because there wasn't enough flavor coming through..how can i get more of the flavor in my tea? so its really dense with flavor in every sip
Answer:
The key is to wait and let the tea soak into the water, or you can just use more tea!

Question : Is packet green tea as good for you as lose leaf green tea?
I was wondering if it was worth investing in a tea strainer thing and some lose leaves, or is the packet green tea just as good?
Answer:
Health-wise, they're about the same, but loose leaf is fresher & has more flavor.You don't need anything fancy, tea steeps better when it has room to move, so it shouldn't be brewed in a confined diffuser or tea ball. I use a french press for my green & white teas and an iron teapot for black tea. Once it's ready, you can pour it through a cheap strainer, right into the cup.

Question : help on growing a herb garden for tea?
also, are there tea pots with strainers built in? I'm not very up to date (or backwards!) on old teapots and the like, but would obviously want a teapot that I could boil the leaves/herbs in straight.I was hoping to start growing my own herbs for use with teas etc, as I'm an avid tea drinker but would prefer to do it the old fashioned way, and organic aswell. what would be the best herbs or plants to start with?
Answer:
I suggest that you get a book on herbs you will enjoy it and you will have it as a reference for ever.You will find that you can make herbal tea out of so many herbs that it would take me Absolutely ages to write it all down.You can also make tea out of some wild plants like nettle. Most herbal teas can be made by just pouring boiling water over the fresh herb and letting it stand for a while to infuse. If you do this you do not need a strainer. Other herbs you can dry for winter use. I would suggest that you have a strainer separate to your tea pot. This stops the tea pot from getting all clogged up around the spout.Herbs I grow in my garden for herbal tea are borage, lemon balm, sage, rosemary, thyme, lovage, various types of mint and of course nettle and dandelion which grow them self. All of these are very easy to grow and come back every year. There are many more than this, but i find these are enough for me.I grow most of my herbs alongside my flowers and they look very attractive.I hope you find this useful.

Question : if i put manure in a tea strainer and filter water through it, will the water become nutrient rich?
will it become good for irrigation of plants?
Answer:
In order to ensure that the water-solubles in the manure do break down, you must make a "tea" of it.Hopefully, you will have composted or oven-dried the manure with low heat, about 200°, for several hours or even overnight. This will kill off the weed seeds, which are an inherent part of herbivore (cow, horse, rabbit, etc.) manure.Place a coffee can full of manure in a container or bucket. Cover it with about 2x the amount of warm water & let it stand, covered, overnight. Strain the solids out & add 50% more water. (This will ensure that it does NOT burn your plants.)Use this diluted tea as you would a liquid fertilizer. If it's for an edibles garden, I would experiment, fertilizing one plant of each type to see how it responds.Have fun & happy gardening!

Question : Where can I buy good quality herbal tea like "Suki Tea" in the UK?
Other than online, where can I buy really good quality tea. I am looking for camomile tea especially, but I don't want it in tea bags like the Twinings one you can buy in supermarkets. I want a speciality one where you buy the dried camomile blossoms and put them in a tea strainer. Does anyone know where I can buy Suki tea or another similar brand, Harrods? somewhere like that?.. Thanks.
Answer:
Any specialty tea-shop surely? Used to be a couple of good ones in Bristol..er..23 years ago. Maybe still are.Continental markets always have Suki and other proper teas and Grounds coffee shops which I think are limited to NI have them. Why not try a decent coffee-shop in your area.
