For those wanting to buy one, it's sold by IKEA as the Idealisk tea infuser, $1.99. Also available in lots of other stores, I guess. https://www.ikea.com/us/en

  I've had one of these for what feels like centuries. Sturdy. Machine washable. Inexpensive as hell. Along with my single-serving french press also from Ikea[0] some of the most value per dollar I've ever got.

  The ingenuiTEA is the best tea brewer I've used, it works great for all loose teas. https://www.amazon.com/Adagio-Teas-ingenuiTEA-Bottom-Dispensing-Teapot/dp/B000FPN8TK https://www.amazon.com/Adagio-Teas-ingenuiTEA-Bottom-Dispens... When I drink tea I usually drink something spicy like Chai and use either my ingenuiTEA or a Cafetière.

  Other price extreme: Vorwerk (of Thermomix fame) is selling a loose tea machine: https://temial.vorwerk.de/ https://temial.vorwerk.de/ Only 600 Euros!

    Wow, that thing has GPL’ed code in it. Who says GPL code is anathema for business? Personally, I prefer my tea makers without Apache in them; I recently got the Breville BTM800XL (a.k.a. Sage The Tea Maker™), and it is very nice, in that it is fully automated.
