Description

Loose tea steeps clean when the leaves stay in a little star and the star hangs right on your cup. Fill the basket, close the buckle, and hook it on the rim for a sip with no grit. The polished 304 stainless build makes it a fun everyday tool and an easy gift for anyone who brews loose leaf.

Creative star-shaped stainless steel tea infuser that brews loose tea and hangs on the cup

Solves
  • loose tea leaves floating in cup
  • messy tea leaves when brewing
  • need for a fun, decorative way to steep tea

Loose tea that stays out of your cup

Tired of fishing soggy leaves out of your mug? This polished stainless star hangs on the rim, holds your leaves, and leaves you with a clean sip.

A star-shaped basket that keeps leaves in their place

Two open star infuser halves filled with dried rosebuds and a chain

A star that holds the leaves

The basket is covered in fine perforations. Loose leaves stay inside the star while the water passes through, so you get a full steep without grit on your tongue. If you already own a stainless steel tea strainer, this one swaps the drip for a basket that stays where you put it.

Hangs on the rim, stays put

The long chain ends in a hook that sits over the lip of your mug. The star hangs at the right depth, so you do not have to hold it or fish it out with a spoon. Lift it out by the chain when the tea is ready.

Questions and answers

Is the 5.5 cm star big enough for a full scoop of loose tea?
w
Wanelo · seller

The basket is compact, so it suits a single cup of loose leaf rather than a large teapot load. Fill it partway so the leaves can open up and the buckle closes cleanly. For a bigger batch, use two steeps.

Will the chain and hook stay secure on a mug rim?
w
Wanelo · seller

The hook sits over the lip of the mug and the basket hangs at a fixed depth. It is most secure on a rim that is even and sturdy. Avoid very thin or uneven edges, where the basket can tilt.

How do I clean the infuser after the leaves are packed in the holes?
w
Wanelo · seller

Open the buckle and rinse the basket under warm water right after brewing. Fine leaf dust clears fastest when it is still wet. A soft brush helps if anything sticks in the perforations.

Is the stainless steel safe for everyday tea brewing?
w
Wanelo · seller

The star is made from 304 stainless steel, a common grade for food contact tools and drinkware.

Can I use it as a gift for someone who already has a tea strainer?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. Most tea strainers drip and sit in the cup. This one is a playful, hands-free basket with a face and a chain, so it reads as a new tool, not a duplicate. Pair it with a favorite loose tea tin for a complete gift.
