Easy to clean and sturdy
I was worried about cleaning inside the ball, but the opening is wide enough to get a brush in easily. It also sits nicely at the bottom of my mug without tipping over.

Worth the upgrade
Upgraded from a silicone infuser and the difference in taste is noticeable. No rubbery smell, just pure tea. The 316 steel is clearly higher grade.

Great quality, slightly small capacity
This is a premium product for sure. The build quality is excellent and it doesn't rust. My only minor complaint is that it holds about 2 teaspoons, so if you like very strong tea, you might need two of these.

Best infuser I've ever owned
The 316 steel feels incredibly durable compared to my old 304 models. The mesh is fine enough that no loose leaves escape into my cup, and it cleans up instantly under running water.

Good but chain is a bit short
The infuser itself is fantastic quality, but the chain is a little short for my tall travel mugs. It works perfectly in standard cups though.

Perfect for loose leaf oolong
I brew a lot of oolong that requires multiple steepings. This ball allows the leaves to expand properly while keeping them contained. The screw top is tight and never leaks.
Q: Is this infuser safe to put in the dishwasher?
A: Yes, our 316 Stainless Steel Tea Infuser Ball is fully dishwasher safe. However, hand washing is recommended to maintain the brushed finish for longer.
Q: What is the difference between 316 and 304 stainless steel?
A: 316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, which provides superior resistance to corrosion and rust compared to 304 steel, making it ideal for frequent contact with hot water and acidic teas.
Q: Does the chain get hot when brewing with boiling water?
A: The chain can become warm if submerged in boiling water for extended periods. We recommend using the handle or letting it cool slightly before removal.
Q: Can this fit in a standard K-cup compatible mug?
A: Yes, the spherical design is compact and fits comfortably in most standard mugs, including those designed for single-serve brewers, provided the mug is at least 3 inches wide.
Q: Will fine herbal dust pass through the mesh?
A: The mesh is ultra-fine and designed to hold most loose leaves and larger herbal particles. However, extremely fine powders or dust might occasionally pass through.
