Those guys at upton are fast. Put the order in on Monday night, got it
today. Sipping a nice tall cup of TD60 right now. Ahhhhh... Hey, I'm thinking of getting just an inexpensive extra tea pot for my stuff, a 4-cupper (that's 9.46 deciliters for you Euros) cuz all I have now are 1's and 2's.. Do Upton's chatworth ones do the trick? There are three types, right? The standard, the bone china and the commercial. Anybody have any of those? They have a special on the bone china one right now. Thanks! |

I just picked up a 6 cup standard one in brown from Upton's last week and it
is great! The thing I like compared to my Beehouse pot is that even for a bigger pot the infuser basket goes down deep so if you only want half a pot the water still covers the tea.

That was actually my next question. Usually I only brew about two cups at a
time.. how far are the bottoms of the infuser baskets from the bottom of the pot? Thx!

Hi,
When you get your 4 cup pot, would you post what the true capacity is in ounces? I know it's supposed to be 24 oz (with the infuser in place would be fine.) I bought a 4 cup Brown Betty that was sold as a 24 oz pot. It's really a 1 liter...it holds just over 30 oz. I was interested in a true 24oz that I could also use for 12-16 oz pots as well. I've also found that the BB with or without a tea cosy seems to overheat my morning Earl Grey and kills the bergamot. So I'm in the market for yet another teapot! Thanks!

They have a special on the bone china one right now. YES! I got the 4-cup, 24 oz, bone china. It was the best purchase I ever made so I ordered a 2-cup Arthur Wood Chatsford which turned out to be 16 oz instead of 12 oz and ordered a extra baskets for both pots for when I want something else in between green tea infusions. -- ~~Bluesea~~ Spam is great in musubi but not in email.

What size Beehouse do you have? For my 22 (or whatever it is) oz pot, I put the basket away and use a mug-size Teeli basket instead. I know that the Beehouse basket is short so that infusing stops when you pour the first cup allowing you to enjoy w/o fiddling with removing the basket until you've got everything back in the kitchen, but I don't care about that when I'm making tea for only myself. -- ~~Bluesea~~ Spam is great in musubi but not in email.

I do have a basket from one of my bigger pots that may fit the Beehouse. I'll give it a try. Thanks. Mike |
