A stainless mesh ball that opens on a sprung hinge, with a chain and hook so it can hang on the rim of a pot rather than sinking to the bottom. It is the simplest way to brew loose leaf in a vessel that has no basket of its own.
Features
- Sprung hinge that holds the two halves closed under the weight of wet leaf
- Chain and hook to hang the ball from the rim, so it is easy to lift out
- Fine mesh that holds back broken leaf and most small particles
- Stainless steel throughout, including the chain and hook
- Opens flat for emptying and rinsing
- Opens flat on its hinge for emptying and rinsing
