Tea Filters, L

great product

A little long but works well for making a cuppa. Much easier to use than a diffuser.

I make a quart of double strength tea every 2-3 days. After reading the reviews I still wasn't sure which bags to order. The Finums did not disappoint. The bag is generous and has a long, fold over flap on top. It does stay closed and the distal end of the flap can be hung over the side of your container. It stays because it becomes moist from capillary action and just clings to the side. I am saving money because instead of using two Lipton Family Size tea bags per batch, I now buy regular size Lipton's at Costco. I just cut them open (usually while watching TV) and empty the leaves into a small ziploc bag and tuck in a tablespoon measuring spoon for convenience. Since each large Lipton bag is approximately 1 Tbsp., I just place 2 Tbsp. of the loose tea in a Finum bag and I am ready to pour the hot water in and let it steep for 2-3 hours. The Finum bag is big enough to hold 4 Tbsp. I believe it would still allow enough room for the water to circulate around the leaves adequately.

I'm from the land of Ceylon tea. Needless to say, I love strong black tea. I have never been able to form any attachment to the insipid leaf they call "tea" sold in the grocery stores; even the expensive ones in the pretty boxes on the top shelves. I prefer loose leaf tea - which isn't cheap. Even though I like to use a tea pot, there does tend to be some waste which has me going back to the store more often that I'd like. I find that the Finum filters give me the best of both worlds: the convenience of tea bags with the delight of a good cuppa. They are very easy to use: spoon the loose tea into the bag and let the tea steep as you would a tea bag. When the tea is well steeped, discard the bag and the used leaves within. No muss, no fuss; just good tea.

These filters work well. The brand I occasionally buy from the grocery store almost always wicks the tea out and I end up with a puddle of tea on the counter. These only wick tea out occasionally, and then only when I've accidentally bent the extra part down instead of pulling it up. These filters don't add much flavor to the tea, though I still don't use them for very delicate teas. I prefer the large size because it is large enough to give the tea plenty of room and also to stick out of any cup I use.

This is one of those products that make your day. You can make your own tea bags so that when you brew a pot of tea, the loose leaves aren't a hassle to clean out of your tea pot. Simply open the end of the envelope and fill up the bag with your tea, then make a knot in the end of the bag and you have a wonderful tea bag. I wish I'd known about these sooner. I bought the large size and it is plenty big enough to fill it with enough tea to make a very large pot of tea.

Only thing missing is a way to close the bag.

Tea leaves need room to expand when you brew tea, so a metal tea ball doesn't usually allow enough room for that expansion, especially when you're brewing a pot of tea. These filters are big enough to allow for enough tea for a pot, but not too big for a cup. These tea filters are easy to fill, economical, and easy to dispose of. Instead of having struggle with cleaning out the metal tea ball, just throw the filter away.

Bolsas perfectas para rellenar y poner dentro tu te preferido

Molto soddisfatto del mio acquisto i filtri sono di ottima qualità!

Diese Teefilter habe ich das erste mal mit Johanniskraut benutzt. Er hat wunderbar kräftig geschmeckt. Der Teefilter selbst hat alles ausgehalten. Nur ist er etwas zu groß für normale Tassen. Stört mich nicht so sehr. Das einfüllen fand ich nicht schwer, man muss nur wissen wie es am leichtesten ist. Testen werde ich sie noch mit meinen anderen Bio Heilkräutern vom Balkon - Frauenmantel, Schafgarbe, Blutweiderich, etc. Für 3€ echt gute Leistung!

Parfait

Enfin de grands filtres ayquel je peux fire un noeuds. bonne qualité.
