Yes! There are four average size teacups and the pot hols enough water to fill all four.

Yes it will. This was purchased for a Pastor's wife to have in her office for tea time with visitors. It has worked beautifully.

Three tablespoons of tea is all that this will hold in the bottom half. I doubt that would be enough for two gallons of decent strength tea.

They probably hold a "suggested serving size" for adults. But honestly.. it holds about half of what I would consider a decent adult serving.

Yes, it can contain 2 tea bags, each 2g. But you must keep the bag, otherwise it will leak broken tea.

I think it depends on the size of the tea leaf or flower bud/tea mixture you are using. But for example to use apple pie chi rooiboos tea I can fit 6 tablespoons of dry tea into the infuser. That does not leave enough room for expansion when hot water is poured over the tea. So I would say you could reasonably expect to fit 3 tablespoons (9 teaspoons) of a fine to medium sized tea with room for expansion. you could do a very strong cup of tea, a very large cup or a pot.

A large glass spaghetti sauce jar with screw on lid should hold most, if not all the tea. If there is any excess, put in smaller jar and use first. Hope this helps!

The product is made of a hard plastic, so it probably could hold hot tea and not compromise the material. That being said, it would be very hot to the touch. You would be better off searching for a double-walled glass.

I just filled my tea pot where I feel it would be safe and not too full. Measured it out and it was 700mls. A 8oz cup is 240mls so 2cups is 480mls and so on. At least 3 8oz cups would work.

Imagine so. So far yogi, twinnings fit fine and room left for even bigger tea bags . I love mine & use it every day!

Chase - yes the answers below are correct. It actually will hold about 1.5 tablespoons of tea - but we recommend using less than one tablespoon so the tea has plenty of room to expand. In many cases you can use as little as one teaspoon and get even better flavor as the tea has plenty of room to bloom. Thanks, Don

It really depends on how strong you like your tea. I personally use three family size tea bags. The instructions say you can use regular size tea bags (I usually use 4) and you can also use loose tea.

Of course. You just need to put few tea bags at a time according to your taste if you want to fill the teapot in full.

I love this set. Very cheerful. Small canister is not tiny, tiny, can probably get at least a few cups of powered sugar in it, but since not in front of me at the moment, can't give you an actual answer. We keep tea bags in it. I'm glad we purchased this set, looks good in my kitchen and we get nice complements on these canisters. Hope this helps, but sorry if can't be of more assistance.

I have three bone china tea sets from Teavana and I use it with them. I'm not sure if it is recommended but it works for me.

The teapot holds 4 to 6 cups of tea. It is a mid-sized pot and is very beautiful. I love mine. It also has the classic shape to brew tea .
