Strainers and Infusers
An infuser is an indispensable tool which you need while making tea. Usage of the infuser solely depends on what tea you are making. The tea should be left for infusion inside the infuser for at least 3 to 5 minutes. But this is always advised that you should not fill the infuser more than half of its capacity.
This is because the tea leaves will need some place to expand. A tea strainer is used while you have placed the tea leaves inside the tea pot. Otherwise the tea will not taste at its best. The tea infusers are available in various shapes and sizes. You can also find them in sets with the strainers and other tea accessories.
