Just FYI, you can buy stainless steel loose leaf tea infusers. They don't cost a lot ($6->$15) and loose leaf tea is shockingly cheap. Just get a nice airtight container and some moister absorbing packets and you'll have great tea for a while.
I bought like 1lbs ~2 years ago for about $20 and still haven't worked all the way through it :D.
- prophesi 2y agoI will also say that loose leaf is an order of magnitude better tasting than bagged tea. The crush-tear-curl process of bagged tea will elicit a bitter brew from anything that isn't black tea, and lose a lot of its flavor. Not to mention they're likely using the leftover chaff from loose leaf production. I like to show friends a properly brewed Dragonwell green tea and a bug-bitten oolong to convert them to the loose leaf way.

- brewdad 2y agoI picked up a couple of these at IKEA years ago. Sets on the lip of most mugs for brewing and then can be removed and placed in its holder to contain drips. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/ljudloes-tea-infuser-stainless-steel-80360239/ https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/ljudloes-tea-infuser-stainless-...
