If you want to use it as a travel cup, you can sandwich the tea between
the two lids. Turn the cup upside down while steeping. When finished,
turn the cup right side up again, and remove both lids together.
If you want to use it as a teapot, put the leaves directly into the
body of the cup. Put the filter lid on, and pour boiling water in. When
your tea has finished steeping, pour into your mug. The screen will
keep the leaves in the cup.
The personal filter cup comes in three sizes. 6oz, 8oz, and 12oz.
Proper use of an aroma cup

The proper use of an aroma cup, and drinking cup, used in the Gong Fu Cha tea ceremony.
This electric tea kettle will change your life! One of the most
important aspects of brewing tea is water temperature. The Pino Digital
Kettle Pro has a digital readout that lets you set a desired
temperature to the degree. Then the kettle maintains it there for as
long as needed. It also displays the current temperature, so you can
pull the kettle off early, or get an idea about its progression.
The kettle is classy looking and easy to use. I personally use this
kettle for our tea tastings and at events when I serve tea at other
locations. It will boil two cups of water in about 2 minutes.
