tea bag size description confusion? i am looking for the LARGE tea bag size. i see references to 1 gallon size bags and family size in the tea packaging descriptions. are these the same size?

Family size is not the same as gallon. Regular tea bags are for one cup of water. Family size bags are for four cups of water. Gallon size are for, well, one gallon of water.

no they are not the same. a gallon size bag would be similar to 3 of the family size tea bag. a family size tea bag is similar to about 3 regular size tea bags. SO to make a gallon of iced tea you need either 1 gallon size bag, or 3 family size bags, or 9 regular tea bags. I hope this helps.

These are roughly 2.5 times the size of like a traditional tea bag you would get at a restaurant

I looked this up on Lipton's website because I was also confused. Lipton does not make decaf bags in the gallon size, unfortunately. These are family size bags which are larger than the one cup size, but smaller than the one gallon size. I use 3 of these in my tea maker to make 3 liters.

No, they are not the same. I use 4 family size tea bags for 1 gallon of tea and only 1 gallon size bag for the same. I really like the gallon size better as it seems to give a more mellow tea taste...probably because there is maybe less difference from one bag to another, as well as the amount of tea in the gallon bag. Hope that helps! :)

Yep, Britannia is right. Also, each tea cubby is about 4.5x2.75 inches and can hold about 16-18 tea bags. It's a good product.

No nothing on the package. The bags are about 1-1/4 inches square. The tea is finely chopped inside that is all I can tell you

My bags are 1 oz each. I think there are larger bags however. I bought an assortment of flavors, each in a 1 oz bag. There's more in these one oz bags than you might think, though.

You can probably stuff up to 20 Lipton individually wrapped tea bags in each section, but as the other reviewers have mentioned, it will be tight and you will not be able to read the label on each bag. Each compartment will hold 15 easily. Just for comparison- I was also able to comfortably fit 15 STASH tea bags in a section and 7 Celestial Seasonings packets (each has 4 tea bags in it, but you will need to remove one of the short dividers for this) in the box.

Sorry, just did the count: approximately 15-20 bags per square-depending on the size of the tea bag size (ie Lipton tea bags are smaller then yogi tea bags); but you could fit around 100tea bags...

Yes. Each package contains 240 teabags. Thus, 2 x 240 = a lot of teabags (480)! :)

It's the biggest bag of tea I've ever seen - I had to put it in multiple canisters! I just put a tablespoon (I like it strong) in a little tea strainer and pour hot water over it - steeps very quickly. I love it

You can use any size tea bags. I use the regular single serving ones and I use four per pitcher I brew, but have used the bigger ones in the past and just use two.

I'm not sure if I understand the question. I use this 2.5 gallon jug for kombucha tea and it is a great size for me.

First of all this is a 2 quart pitcher, not 64 ounces, or 1 gallon. I had a problem with this when I ordered it. I ended up getting two of these because I can put in the door of my refrigerator. A gallon wouldn't have fit anywhere in my frig. It has a mesh insert which screws into the lid, which is where you put the tea. I use the Twinings English Classic cold brew tea bags. You could also use loose leaf tea. it works very well, the only issue I have is cleaning it. You have to take the clear rubber rings(gaskets) out of the lid and the part that screws onto the pitcher itself. They tend to get moldy very easily. I use three bags, cold water, and let it sit for about an hour. It makes really good tea. First of all this is a 2 quart pitcher, not 64 ounces, or 1 gallon.

We keep all our tea bags in our box . don't know if loose tea would work. Try a small batch to see if it works. I think it would.

I'm having difficulty discerning what your question is asking, Diana. I use a brewing machine to make abt a 1/2 gallon at a time and I still have packets left from the box I ordered a while ago. If you're using one packet to make cups of tea, I imagine that could last a month or longer. I don't recall how many packets came in the box I ordered, but suffice it to say, it is A LOT f tea!! Hope this helps.

I don't know why they're listing sizes. It's one size only. Go with the one that's priced less. It doesn't make sense why they would have sizes and charge more for the same exact bag. Hope that helps you.

5oz is a lot of tea...if your drinking that much tea so quickly...I would definitely look at a lower end brand. I'm sorry but no suggestions for brand.

are you refering to the people size or the kid size? Royal Albert makes a tea set in regular size and one in a childs tea set. I myself own the regular size.
