Mayde Tea -ruostumaton teräs haudutin

Switched from teabags because I hated the bleached paper taste, and this little basket fixed that completely — no glue, no plastic, just clean steel. The lid keeps my chamomile warm while it steeps, which I didn't expect to care about.

The lid actually does double as a drip tray, which I didn't expect to use as much as I do. No more fishing soggy bags out of my mug, and the tea tastes cleaner without that papery edge.

I was skeptical about switching from teabags, but this infuser is so much cleaner—no bleachy paper taste leaching into my morning brew. The steel mesh is fine enough to keep even dusty rooibos contained, and the lid doubles as a drip tray, which I didn’t expect to use as often as I do.
