Making Tea with your AeroPress and The Mesh AeroPress Metal Filter

Did you know that you can make an awesome cup of loose leaf tea with your AeroPress?

Using the inverted brewing method, add your loose leaf tea of choice into the chamber, add hot water and stir, place your Mesh AeroPress Metal Filter over the chamber and lock it in place with the cap. Let it sit for about 4 minutes and flip it over to press a fresh cup of tea. 

Did you know the #aeropress is great for loose leaf tea? If you're using a metal filter of course. This is a photo of white mulberry tea brewing in an Aeropress. Tea provided by @puravidafit.

Note that this is only possible with The Mesh: Aeropress Metal Filter. You cannot use a paper filter because the loose leaf stems will tare the paper. Not only that but the paper will filter out too much of the teas flavor.

Announcing the winner of yesterday's contest today at 5pm PST. It's not too late to enter. Check out our last post for details. #aeropress #aeropressed #aeropressmetalfilter @puravidafit #coffee #barista #tea #whitemulberry #morerablanca

Try it and let us know what you think.

*** For those of you wondering what kind of tea is brewed in the photos above, it is a White Mulberry Tea from Pura Vida Supplements. It's supposed to be some real healthy stuff :)
