What is tea filter and how to use it

A tea filter is a type of filter that is placed on or in a tea cup to catch loose tea.When tea is brewed in a teapot in a traditional way, the tea bag does not contain tea; Instead, they are freely suspended in water. Since the leaves themselves are not consumed by tea, they are usually filtered out by a tea filter. The filter is usually installed on the top of the cup to catch the leaves when pouring tea.

You can also use some deeper tea filters to make a single cup of tea, just like using a tea bag or brewing basket - put the filter full of leaves in the cup to make tea. When the tea is ready to drink, it will be removed together with the waste tea. By using the tea filter in this way, the same leaves can be used to brew multiple cups.

Although the use of tea filters was reduced with the mass production of tea bags in the 20th century, connoisseurs still believe that the use of tea filters is still the first choice. They claim that putting leaves in bags instead of free circulation can inhibit diffusion. Many people assert that tea bags often use inferior ingredients, namely dust quality tea.

Tea filters are usually made of sterling silver, stainless steel or porcelain. The filter is usually combined with the equipment, with the filter itself and a small disc for placing it between the cups. The tea leakage itself is often locked into the art masterpiece of silver - and goldsmith's craft, as well as exquisite rare specimen porcelain.
