Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum Assam 51-Ounce Tea Press
Customer Review: great pot, a few changes would help
Summary: 5 Stars
As a constant tea drinker who prefers using loose tea, this has been a welcome find for me and I have also given it as a gift. I love that when I use it for the Numi Tea flower , the opening flower is seen in all its glory. But because the press would ruin the visual, I wish there were a cover for those times when I don't need a press.
Another improvement that would add to the perfection is an insert that does not stain, such as a glass one. I know that the British purists think that the tea tastes better made in a stained strainer or pot, but I am not one of those. My purist nature loves a shiny, clean pot and insert,
But I still love it and would buy it again if an earthquake caused it to break.
Description of Bodum Assam 51-Ounce Tea Press
Bodum 1846-01 Assam Tea PressWho knows more about tea than the British? When the British Tea Council asked Bodum to develop a new way of brewing tea, the result was this unique press that's almost as much fun to look at as it is to use. Simply fill the strainer with tea leaves and add boiling water--a slow process, but well worth the time. (You could also use tea bags, but why would you want to?) The clear jug lets you see the tea as it's steeping, allowing you to customize its strength to your taste. When the tea is strong enough, slowly depress the plunger to stop the brewing. You won't have any tea leaves to read at the bottom of your cup, but there's no mess and no need to remove the strainer before you pour. But be forewarned: the Bodum press doesn't retain heat quite as well as a traditional teapot, so you might want to use a tea cozy if you're not drinking the whole pot in one sitting. It's a shame to cover up such a beautiful design, but that's the way the tea leaf tumbles. --Mary Park
