Fill 'n Brew, it said.
But … but … but. If you fill these little guys, you're gonna be picking up tea leaves! See this opening? That's it. There's no way to close these tea bags. They don't fold over upon themselves like some do, and there's no extra-long filter to hang over the side of a cup. My rowdy little tea leaves were soon plotting their escape, and I ended up just hanging the (wet and messy) tea bag over the rim of the cup and letting some liquid dribble down the side while my tea steeped, which was not exactly what I'd hoped for. I must have bought a dozen different types of tea filter over the years, but my goodness, this is the first batch I've ever bought that aren't designed to close! Who knew such a thing existed? (I do now, alas.)
I bought a little tea click to use when I'm camping. https://marktwendell.com/tea-click-paper-tea-filter-holder.html It's easy to use and I prefer not to put tea leaves down the sink in our travel trailer.
ReplyDeleteThanks for warning us, Angela! Those filter bags sure sound like a mess.
ReplyDeleteI got some like that with a tea pin. It is a long hat pin that the bag hangs on. The pin rests on the cup for brewing. Not great!
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad that they are so short. I wonder if you could use them with a pin stuck through the top or something clipping it shut?
ReplyDeleteI have bought similar filters by Finum but theirs come with a stick:

Hmm, good concept but not so good execution! Thanks for the warning, if I had been in Publix and found these, I'd have tried them, too.
