Is there any specific brand of tea this is used for? Would it work it Teavana tea?

It works with any tea sold in bulk. This is the beauty of it; you have the widest tea selection available; no need for tea bags or anything like that. I never had any issue with any tea I have used.

I don't know, this company also has some similar pots specifically for tea if that's what you need.

This works equally well as a tea pot, you just measure your fresh loose leaf tea and place it in the container, pour in the hot, not quite boiling water wait a minute or so and apply the press. Makes wonderful tea. Haven't used tea bags at this time but it would probably work well also.

I am sorry, but not being a real tea drinker, I cannot tell you what I do not know. Try an English household, for surely the will know more than I. I don't drank enough tea to know good from bad. Matter of act, I would Love to find the right tea for myself, yet try as I may, I have failed. Still looking,

That depends on the kind of tea you are using and the potency you are looking for. I've used this to make a 1.5 liter size pitcher of sun tea and I've also used it to make a 18 ounce size of hot tea. You will have to experiment a bit to find your flavor level. Since it is big, you have more room to "play". Sorry I couldn't give you a more direct answer, hope this helps

Yes it can be used for real tea. My daughters use it for hot chocolate mostly.

I thought this was for loose tea. It's all I ever use it for. It works really well and is a robust, quality product.

That is a good question, I have only heard of people trying it as is and the taste is pretty good but I don't see why you couldn't try putting something else in it. Either way, it is quality tea.

great for tea. I'd throw in some worm castings or compost as well at least. I sometimes make teas with a long list of ingredients, depending on what I'm using it for.

I have used mine with finely ground tea and it works but not as well as with regular tea. The screen will let some of the grounds thru.

It is not tea... I have only used it for smoothies and milkshakes, in which it works great for both. I suppose you could brew some black tea and mix some of this in it. The ingredients list on the back of my package: Taro Flavor Powder, Granulated sugar, Glucose, Non-dairy creamer. It is pretty sweet, I didn't need to add any sugar (wish I could take some out ;p).

Yes it is but it is small so i am not sure you would want to use it for "real" tea.

I don't specifically know about this product, but my boyfriend uses the Tea Tree Special products, and he loves them. They work well and smell really good, so you will love them. I'm sure this product is similar, although it didn't work as well for me.

Oh yes it does work for loose leaf tea. I actually have 4 of these. One for coffee one for espresso one for tea bags and one for loose leaf tea. This is a great product and one of the best things I have ever spent my money on. You won't be disappointed!

I don't know, but it's worth a try. My parents use one just like this to make apple cider. They put the mulling spices at the top and put apple cider in it instead of water, and it works well. I would guess it would work with tea.

Yulia - not its not meant to press the tea. In fact we advise against pressing your tea. In many cases it releases tannin and creates a bitter taste.Thanks, Don
