How to use

To use the Maku tea infuser, press the handle to open the stainless steel sphere. Scoop your preferred amount of loose-leaf tea into the infuser, then release the handle to close it securely. Place the infuser into your cup and pour hot water over it. Allow the tea to steep according to the specific requirements of your tea variety. Once the desired strength is reached, lift the infuser out of the cup, press the handle again to open the sphere, and discard the used leaves into a compost bin or trash.

What to consider before purchase

• Check if the 4.5 cm diameter fits the opening of your favorite mugs
• Ensure the tea leaves you use are not too fine to avoid sediment
• Consider the handle length to ensure it reaches the bottom of your preferred cups

Usage recommendations

For the best flavor, always use fresh water heated to the appropriate temperature for your specific tea type. After each use, rinse the infuser thoroughly or place it in the dishwasher to prevent tea tannins from building up on the mesh.
