Making tea in a teapot...

[Biddlybee]

Do you ever make tea in a teapot?

If you do, do you use loose tea or teabags?

Is it weird to use teabags to make tea in a pot?

I never thought so!

i make tea with teabags when i use my teapot, but only because i dont use my teapot often enough to warrant buying loose tea, else i would use loose tea coz its better form a teapot

Tea in a teapot cools down too quickly. Tea should be mouth scaldingly hot.

I clicked on loose in a pot, but the majority of the time it's a bag in a mug.

If I make tea in a tea pot, I sometimes use loose tea, sometimes teabags. No option for that. Poll fail. Unless it's multiple choice.

My thread title was misleading

I've only ever had loose tea at post afternoon tea

It's multiple choice, because I knew there'd be people like you and innit

If I warm my teapot, it stays nicely hot. But then I prefer my tea not to scald.

The same....and no mention of a cosy....a cosy is an integral part of my tea pot experience.

Even if you warm the teapot, it still cools too quickly.

I love my teapot too much to hide it in a cosy. The other day I almost started a thread about how much I love my teapot.

Ok, that might be where my poll does fail... and my teapot does too - I don't have a cosy

I was called a freak for using a teapot though

I am hankering after this in a big way....

Freak.

Me and four others so far

You're against the teapot full stop aren't you? I bet you stir the bag in your mug so it's ready quicker and can scald your mouth!

Teapots are gay.

 

[stupid dogbot]

Loose in a teapot, ideally. With nice green tea.

Mine's not it's silver.

Praise be! Tea drinkers can spell loose tea. How wonderful. I used to always buy loose tea and make it in a pot. I had a range of different teas kept in jam jars. Now I buy teabags and still make it in a pot. Assam is my favourite but some of the blended teas are good as well.

Just occasionally I make it in the cup, but it means having somewhere to put the teabag for use later in making a second cup.

 

[ViolentPanda]

Loose tea in teapot, and very rarely, a mug of tea-flavoured drink made in a mug with a teabag.

 

[danny la rouge]

It depends. If I'm on my own, teabag in a mug. If I'm making a lot, for guests, say, then tea in a pot.

We picked up rather a nice teapot from a local charity shop recently.
