If you have trouble preparing a good tea or herbal tea at the right times, this tool can be very useful. The hourglass for herbal teas and teas allows you to control the infusion times of the ingredients, respecting the precise times to the minute. We know that the infusion time is a fundamental factor for the success of a hot drink.
Keep the right infusion time for tea and herbal teas
By getting the infusion times wrong, you risk not allowing the correct extraction of the active ingredients, nullifying the properties of the infusion and wasting the leaves / ingredients. Infusing less than necessary or for too long makes the tea or herbal tea useless - sometimes even undrinkable if we forget to remove the strainer. In addition, in terms of the taste of the tea, the right steeping time is an essential part of the infusion process. For example, leaving green tea in the water for too long can leave a bitter taste in the mouth; extracting a delicate white tea too soon can make it lose its aroma. The flow of the granules, from the bottom to the top, indicates exactly the necessary minutes, which in Natura d'Oriente herbal teas and teas are shown on the packaging. This device is simple but effective, and keeps track of the infusion time in a practical way. It also features a linear and elegant design, which adapts to any shelf and desk,
Infusion hourglasses for different time measurements
Thanks to this timer in the shape of a classic "hourglass", tea preparation becomes perfect. In our proposal, there are hourglasses for tea and herbal teas for 3 different times, in terms of minutes and colors (both of the grains and the non-transparent bottoms). The timer is indicated on the lid. The infusion hourglass that measures 7 minutes, is ideal for infusions and herbal teas - you can find it in pink. The infusion hourglass with the time measurement of 5 minutes, is suitable for those who want to prepare black tea, and for this reason it is designed in this same color. The tea hourglass that measures 3 minutes, can be used for green tea and other teas that need to be infused for a short time - it is a tool designed with green grains and packaging. The set of hourglasses is also a nice gift idea, for infusion enthusiasts.
