Could you use this product with tea bags?

Put it like this, the tea bag is already an infuser, so if you put a tea bag in this, it's like filtering something through twice. You could lose some flavor. How about you just open the tea bag and pour the contents into this infuser?

I have not used it with tea bags, but I don't see any reason why you can't A tea bag would certainly fit inside the Manatea.

I don't see why not! I just stuck a tea bag in mine, and it fits if you fold it. You may have to move it around a bit, instead of letting it sit though.

you can use it with small ones. I don't think a big tea bag would fit in it. But I have fit small ones in it before.

Sure, but if you just stuffed a tea bag in there it would take longer to brew. A better way might be to cut the bag open and pour the loose tea into the infuser.

I would think you can. Just put the tea in the basket where the Coffee would go. Never tried it though.

I don't think that would work. There would be no seal around the bag to force the water through the tea. There is a reusable metal filter that could be filled with loose tea.

I have no idea about the tea bags. I use the tea that comes with it and other loose leaf tea. I have always used a lot of tea when I make it. I used to use 6 family size bags to make a pitcher of tea. I have noticed that when I use the amount that they call for, the tea is weaker than I like so I use more. I'm sorry I couldn't be more help, since i like my tea strong, I am probably the wrong person to ask.

The holes are small, you can get a straight pin through them.If your tea is fine like that in a tea bag it will not work.

Not fine enough for ground spices, or even thai tea mix. Using paper teabags to infuse spices separately would probably be less messy.

I think it probably would. The infuser basket is quite narrow, so larger tea bags would probably have to be worked with a bit to get them down in the basket. I have never used the cup with any hot liquids either, but I believe the plastic is sturdy enough to hold up to hot water/tea infusing.

I think it would depend upon how much tea that you use. If you go through a lot, probably not a problem. Some tea bags still come packed in paper, even. If I was adding new bagged tea without wrappers, I would probably wrap it in a baggie until the rest of that type was used.

Sorry Cheri, I just open the tea bags and take what I need for the particular container I am using. I use it as though it is loose tea.

Great question! While the tea bags can be stored, the tea itself should be used immediately. Remember, this is a LIVING product - each tea bag contains billions of beneficial microbes, lying dormant in hibernation. Once you soak the tea bag in water, you start to awaken them. When you stir and add water, now they are wide awake and ready for work and food... so let them loose!Simplest rule of thumb is work backwards: 1. Soak tea bag only when you know you

Yes, I'd say you can store tea bags, no holes. If your cabinets are older, this won't work. If your cabinets are flat underneath- more like IKEA cabinets, it would work fine.

No you shouldn't use half a tea bag. This bag shoul come with 4 tea bags, making five gallons each bag for a total of 20 gallons of compost tea. If you decide to use each bag more than once it's your call, but it could be less potent. This will also increase the total gallons.

You can add tea bags no problem. There is more than enough room for one bag, I usually add two bags because I like my tea strong and don't have too much of a problem getting them to fit.

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.

hello, yes you could steep tea bags in this tea pot. I would recommend two tea bags, it makes 3 8oz cups of tea. I love my tea pot I use it daily with tea bags and loose leaf.

I haven't tried tea, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. It is a great product, I love it!

I have not tried to put tea bags in it, only loose tea. It easily fits about 1.25 to 1.5 tablespoons of loose tea.
