I drink a lot of tea and thereby many different varieties of coarse fruit on the very fine black tea or Roibuschtee. So far, I've always had to do with paper filters and the various Teehaltern and glass jugs. This pot I discovered by accident in my tea shop. The plastic filter is also suitable for very fine tea. It is easy to clean and retains almost all crumbs. The pot itself sums a liter and keeps very long warm. Only you should make sure that you the jug before all pouring boiling water, hot flushes shortly beforehand, otherwise there's broken glass. Unfortunately happened after three months with me, but was my mistake. The pot keeps absolutely tight and the tea is still hot even after several hours. After I had wrecked my first pot, I've again bought one (here on Amazon). Here's a tip for cleaning up: After some time formed inside the pot a slight deposit. Simple baking powder or baking soda or Kukident tablet pure and hot water on it. Through the released oxygen, the coating dissolves. Then simply rinse with clear water and the pot is like new.
