Product Description
Size: 0.8 liter | Color: Black
Tea Control 0.8 with a patented Brew-Stop filter ! The Tea Control 0.8 (28 oz) ideally brews 2 to 4 cups. Control the strength and the taste of your tea with a simple turn of the lid. How does it work? Put loose tea or a tea-bag in the filter then pour in hot water to fill the entire teapot, place the lid into the filter and let the tea brew. When your tea is strong enough, simply turn the lid of the Tea Control - this separates the tea from the drink and releases all flavour into the pot. Remember: you will not have to remove the filter.You can brew your tea right a the table - no dripping, no waiting - just enjoy nearly 1 liter of delicious ready-to-drink tea. The stylish borosilicate glass pot allows you to monitor the expansion of the leaves and the spreading of the tea color and flavor. High tech material (PA) makes the patented infuser very durable and completely taste and odor free. The eye-catching design has been awarded with the exclusive European Red Dot Award. Riensch & Held is the German manufacturer of the finum brand which heads a unique range of utensils around tea and coffee. We are focusing our efforts on innovative design and technology, quality manufacturing and superior customer satisfaction.

Gimmick with poor execution,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Finum Tea Control (Kitchen)
Lots of little things make this not work as well as you might hope, and ultimately make it nothing more than a gimmick.
1: The holes are too few to get a good circulation around the tea leaves 2: The too-few holes are also too large and let lots of leaf bits through, more than my mesh filter equivalent 3: The too-few, too-large holes get stems and leaves stuck in them and are difficult to clean, a problem made even worse by: 4: The edges of all the plastic bits are sharp right angles, making cleaning the inside of the filter literally painful. 5: The little bit by the top of the filter where the black(or colored) plastic meets the clear plastic gets a tea leaf stuck in it every single time I make tea. 6: The "control" mechanism, by nature of the flimsy plastic bits, constantly misses a large number of tea leaves that just float around anyway. Defeating the purpose of the whole device, or at least minimizing the benefits 7: The tea leaves that do get cordoned off by the "control" mechanism still sit in hot water unless you pull the whole filter mechanism out, meaning your next infusion has all the bitterness you might have saved from your first infusion. I'm replacing it with another regular teapot with a mesh strainer. Too much gimmick and hassle for not much payoff.

Spectacular Engineering, Design, & Quality,
By Dragoness (San Jose, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Finum Tea Control 1.2, Black (Kitchen)
I've been drinking tea my whole life and have recently become somewhat of a tea snob. I've been looking for a teapot with an infuser for a while. When I saw that this teapot had a way to stop the steeping process, I was enthralled.
I drink tea throughout the day and I drink the lighter Chinese teas. I don't like the bitterness of tea that has been oversteeped. The greatest thing about the teapot is that it really does keep the tea warm for 2-3 hrs in room temperature. For boiling hot tea, I usually keep my thermos handy with boiling hot water and pour 2-3 cups of hot water into the teapot at a time. (Good tea leaves are reusuable for at least 5-6 pots in a day.) I'm so happy to have such a aesthetically pleasing teapot on my desk at work and not having to use the lower grade tea in the teabags anymore. The infuser is also large enough to allow leaves to fully open and get the full flavor. The tea balls work somewhat but this works perfectly.

A Simple, Stylish Way to Make Great Tea,
By
This review is from: Finum Tea Control 1.2, Black (Kitchen)
As a coffee man, I have precious little experience in brewing good-tasting hot tea. Consequently, when I wanted to expand my hot beverage horizons a bit, I was left with a cup full of the bitter leaves of disappointment--using a regular teapot, I can't make a good cup to save my life. I bought this product from my local coffee shop to see if it could offer any help in the way of making tea.
Immediately after removing the pot from the box, I could see evidence of quality. The glassware reminded me of the stuff we used in my organic chemistry lab, which is to say that I found it sturdy and aesthetically pleasing. Its instructions explained (in clear but translated English) a fairly simple process. The first pot of tea I made with it was as beautiful in taste as it was in color. I can't speak for experienced brewers, but for a novice to intermediate who wants to make the process a bit easier, this seems to be a good way to go. 2115|R2XFR8UY0NPQ77;2115|R2ZDP4WZUYII4W;2115|R15NQ6L5KAT0Y;
