Guide Review - triniTEA Electric Tea Maker from Adagio Teas
When I use a traditional tea pot to brew my tea, I have a bad habit of forgetting about the tea until it is too late. Then the tea becomes bitter, cold and undrinkable. Not any more. With triniTea, every cup is filtered at the perfect time. I can drink a cup now and another one hours later without any difference in the strength or temperature of the tea.
It's much easier to operate than a first impression led me to think when I unpacked it from the box. The newer model has improved on the design of the pouring spout, but it still requires a slow pour at the correct angle to be sure it doesn't spill. But then, tea shouldn't be a rushed experience, anyway.
Since I've had the triniTEA tea maker, I haven't used any of my other pots. I'll probably save those for special occasions when I want to set a traditional tea table. For everyday use at work, at home, or when entertaining, you can't beat this no-brainer way of brewing tea.
