Brew loose tea and leave the leaves behind. This fine-mesh 304 stainless basket hangs across your mug on folding handles, so the tea runs clear and the cleanup takes seconds. It is a small, steady tool that works with the cups you already own.
Fine-mesh 304 stainless steel tea infuser with folding handles that sits neatly over any cup or teapot
- loose tea leaves floating in cup
- messy cleanup after brewing
- handle that gets in the way of the cup
- stained or flimsy strainers
Loose tea, no floating leaves
Before: leaves drifting in your cup and a sink full of soggy clumps. After: a fine-mesh stainless basket rests across your mug, the tea runs clear, and the leaves stay put.
A fine mesh that keeps leaves where they belong
- A fine mesh that keeps the leaves in
The basket is fine perforated 304 stainless steel with more than 6000 water holes. Tea runs straight through into your cup, while small leaves and broken pieces stay inside. You can lift the basket out at any point and see the difference.
- Handles that rest on your rim
Two folding loop handles hang the basket across the cup opening, so it sits level without a chain or clip. The flange rim keeps the basket where you put it. When you are done, the handles fold flat at 90 degrees and take up almost no room in the drawer.
- Polished steel that rinses clean
The polished 304 finish does not hold onto tea stains the way a cheap strainer does. Tap out the leaves, run the basket under the tap, and it is ready for the next cup.

Set it on your cup and brew
- 1Set the basket on your cup
Open the handles and rest them across the rim of your mug or teapot. The flange holds the basket in place.
- 2Add the leaves and pour
Fill the basket with loose leaves, leaving room for them to open up. Pour hot water over the leaves and let the tea steep.
- 3Lift, tap and rinse
Lift the basket out, tap the wet leaves into the bin, and rinse the mesh right away so nothing dries onto the steel.
Rinse, tap, done
- Rinse right after brewing
Wet leaves left in the mesh can stain the steel and leave residue.
- Tap out the leaves
Most of the leaves come out in one tap when the basket is lifted.
- Dry before storing
Let the basket air dry on the counter so the mesh stays clear between brews.

Questions and answers
The basket is 54 mm across the top and the flange is 70 mm, so the handles rest on the rim of a standard mug and the basket hangs over a glass teapot opening. Check that your cup has a rim you can rest the handles on. Very wide bowls are the only case where the fit may feel loose.
Yes. The basket is fine perforated 304 stainless steel with more than 6000 water holes. Small leaves and broken pieces stay inside the mesh while the tea runs clear into the cup.
A tea ball is cramped, so leaves cannot open up and it is fiddly to load. This basket is open wide, sits across the rim with no chain, and empties in one tap. Compared with paper bags you throw away every brew, one steel basket covers every cup from then on.
Rinse it by hand right after brewing. Tapping out the wet leaves and running the basket under the tap takes seconds, and that is the routine that keeps the mesh clear.
It measures 7 x 7 x 8 cm overall and weighs 60 g, so it fits easily in a desk drawer or a kitchen drawer beside your tea caddy.
