	Classic Mesh Infuser Ball We have these classic stainless steel mesh infusers in four different sizes and we have a few tips for you to help you choose the correct size for your needs. Keep in mind some tea leaves will more than double in size when they steep, so never fill your tea ball more than 1/3 to 1/2 full. If after steeping, your tea ball is packed tightly with tea, then you are wasting tea and dollars. You want the water to have plenty of room to circulate. Therefore, choose the biggest infuser that will fit in your teapot. With that in mind here are our sizes and guidelines. 1.75" Mesh Ball - For a single cup or petite mug. 2.00 " Mesh Ball - For over-sized mugs, travel mugs and 2 - 3 cup teapots. 2.50" Mesh Ball - For 3 - 6 cup teapots 3.00" Mesh Ball - Large teapots. This size is also perfect for mulling spices, fresh cooking herbs, and bath teas.

	Gold Mesh Infuser Our favorite infuser by far! This infuser fits down into your teapot or mug suspended by little wings. The mesh is fine enough to catch the smallest particles giving you a crystal clear infusion. The medium size filter works well for large mugs and for teapots up to 6 cuppers. For teapots bigger than 6 cups, please order the large filter.
