just buy a ceramic teapot / gaiwan / tasting cup. they're better for brewing some teas and you won't have to bother with silt, rust or permanent stains

This thread is for discussing teas, tisanes, and other herbal infusions.

I mostly brew in one of those tea testing cups I've seen used professionally
does anyone else here also do this? they're cheap and pretty handy, easy to empty like a gaiwan, but the filter is more like what you'd see in a teapot. can't quite control the pour like a gaiwan, but easier to brew small leaf stuff. and you can do the thing where you just rest them on top of the cup and all the liquor dribbles down on its own
