I, and my coworkers, probably use at least half an ounce of dry tea a
day at work. It'll be gone in about 2 months I brought in a
communal Mr. Coffee that we use to brew tea in. I figured should buy
some cheap loose tea to put in it. I started messing with loose tea
when I discovered that bagged tea gets spendy quick. Cruddy stash
bagged tea is upwards of 30 bucks a pound. I realized I could get good
tea and use that for cheaper
