More tea time! We have had folks ask us how the Breville One-Touch Tea Maker compares to making tea in the traditional manner, so we decided to experiment. Using the Bonavita Gooseneck Variable Temperature Kettle and the Sowden Penrose teapot, we brewed up batches of Dammann's L'Oriental and Darjeeling loose leaf teas. We tried to approximate the same temperature, dosage and steep duration to determine if these was a difference in the cup. Watch as Jess preps these up and we taste them to find out!
