How to Use a Tea Diffuser
Those who want to enjoy a proper cup of tea employ the use of a tea infuser. The tea infuser utilizes loose leaf tea placed into hot water to steep. Infusers are environmentally conscious as only the tea leaves are thrown away instead of a paper tea bag. Infusers come in different sizes to make a single cup or an entire pot.
Instructions
Spoon Infuser
1 Pour hot water into your tea cup or pot.
2 Open the spoon infuser by pushing on the clasp holding the two sections together. Place the loose leaf tea into the spoon and close the clasp.
3 Put the spoon into the tea cup or pot. Let the tea steep to the desired strength and remove the infuser. Discard the used leaves.
Tea Infuser Ball
4 Fill a tea cup or pot with hot water.
5 Unscrew the two halves of the tea infuser ball. Some tea infuser balls will not unscrew unless they are aligned in a certain way.
6 Fill one the ball with loose tea about half way. Filling the ball more than half way may not allow for the leaves to steep properly and can result in bitter tasting tea.
