Technical details
Glass teapot with press infuser, 18 or 24 oz
This borosilicate glass teapot features a press-to-stop inner chamber infuser: press the plunger down and the leaves are physically sealed away from the water, stopping the brew right where you want it. Available in 18 oz and 24 oz. Designed for loose leaf tea and blooming tea. The borosilicate glass is heat-resistant and lets you watch the brew unfold. Not for stovetop use. Hand wash recommended to protect the infuser mechanism. If you want to go bigger, take a look at our large glass teapot with infuser in 34 or 54 oz.
The benefit
Your tea, exactly as strong as you like
You know that moment when you get distracted and come back to a cup that tastes like a wet garden? Well now, that is over, honey. One press and the leaves stop steeping, right at the strength you chose. No bitterness, no guessing, no second-guessing. Just the cup you wanted, every single time. That little press changes everything about your morning.
What it's made of
Borosilicate glass, built to last
Borosilicate glass is the good kind, dear. Heat-resistant, clear as a window, and it will not cloud up on you after a few washes. The press-to-stop inner chamber is the smartest infuser mechanism I have seen on a teapot shelf in a long time, and believe me, I have seen a few. Available in 18 oz and 24 oz, it handles loose leaf and blooming tea beautifully. For more on choosing the right infuser style, our guide on the best tea infusers, ball vs basket, is worth a read.
Picture this
Press, pour, and enjoy without a worry
You measure your loose leaves, pour in the hot water, and watch the tea bloom and swirl through the glass. When the color looks just right, you press down. Done. The leaves are sealed away, the brew is locked in, and you pour yourself a perfect cup. Mind you, the second cup is just as good as the first. No bitterness sneaking in while you were not looking.
In real life
The teapot that actually stops when you say stop
Most infusers just sit there, letting the leaves soak long after you have walked away. This one listens. Press the plunger, and the steeping stops. It is the kind of practical detail that sounds small until you have had one too many bitter cups. Let me tell you, once you brew with a press-to-stop glass teapot, going back feels a little silly. Your tea ritual deserves this.

FAQ
Your questions, answered honestly
What size should I choose, 18 oz or 24 oz?
The 18 oz is a lovely single-session pot, perfect for one or two cups. The 24 oz gives you a little more room if you like to refill or share. Both use the same press-to-stop infuser mechanism, so the brewing experience is identical.
Can I use this teapot on the stovetop?
The description does not mention stovetop compatibility, so I would not risk it, sweetheart. This glass teapot is designed for brewing, not heating. Pour your hot water from a kettle and you are all set.
What kind of tea works best in this teapot?
It is designed for loose leaf tea and blooming tea. The clear borosilicate glass makes blooming tea especially lovely to watch. If you need help with steeping times and temperatures, our loose leaf tea brewing chart has everything you need.
How does the press infuser actually stop the brewing?
When you press the plunger down, the inner chamber seals the leaves away from the water. The steeping stops right there. No more leaves soaking and turning your tea bitter while you are off doing something else. It is a simple mechanism and it works beautifully.
What is the return policy if I change my mind?
Granny Lulu offers free US shipping and a 30-day return window. And if you have a question before or after your order, a real person will answer your email. No automated runaround, just honest help.

What are your delivery times?
Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
Do you offer a warranty on your products?
Yes, all our products are guaranteed for 1 year against manufacturing defects, on top of the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Can I return an item if I am not satisfied?
Absolutely. We offer a 30-day return policy: if a product does not suit you, email teatime@luluteapot.com and we will make it right.
