Stop compromising precision for speed. This stainless steel ball infuser delivers consistent extraction and durable performance for high-volume tea and infusion service, balancing rapid infusion with fine mesh filtration to protect flavor integrity. Foodservice managers and operators will find its compact profile and robust construction suitable for steeping loose leaf blends across cafes, hotels, schools, and hospital kitchens.
#@@# Mesh Filtration#@#
The fine mesh lining captures small leaf particles while maintaining optimal flow through the strainer, reducing grit in cups and carafes. Operators can steep delicate teas without flavor loss because mesh density prevents the escape of fines during vigorous agitation.
#@@# Durable Construction#@#
Manufactured from 18/8 stainless steel, the unit resists corrosion, staining, and repeated thermal cycling in commercial environments. Staff can sanitize and handle the infuser frequently without accelerated wear, extending time between replacements.
#@@# Consistent Capacity#@#
At 3.5 inches in diameter, the infuser accommodates a practical volume of loose leaf material for standard portions. Chefs can control brew strength by adjusting leaf mass inside the chamber, enabling repeatable results across shifts.
#@@# Secure Chain Attachment#@#
A welded chain secures the infuser to rims and handles, preventing accidental immersion loss and simplifying retrieval from tall containers. Line cooks and servers gain efficiency during peak service because the chain allows single-handed placement and removal.
#@@# Compact Footprint#@#
The spherical profile fits within most cups, mugs, and small pots, conserving workspace on crowded service lines. Kitchen staff maintain organized prep stations since the infuser occupies minimal counter space when not in use.
#@@# Lightweight Handling#@#
Weighing approximately 0.13 pounds, the infuser allows rapid maneuvering and reduces fatigue during repetitive use.
