The Bodum Assam Tea Press is an ideal choice for tea enthusiasts who appreciate precision brewing and a clear view of their infusion process. Using a proven French press-style mechanism, this teapot offers exceptional control over tea strength and flavour for both loose-leaf varieties and tea bags; however, users should handle the borosilicate glass body with care to avoid accidental breakage.

Yes, the borosilicate glass is heat-resistant, but always use caution when handling the hot exterior.
No, the design of the Assam press allows the leaves to be pressed to the bottom, effectively separating them from the tea so it does not continue to steep.
Yes, you can place tea bags directly into the filter basket as you would with loose-leaf tea.
This model features a 1.5-litre (1500 ml) capacity.
The glass handle is designed to stay cooler than the main body, but use caution if the pot has been sitting with boiling water for an extended period.
Ensure the elastic silicone rim is properly seated around the filter basket before plunging.
Do not force the plunger; if there is significant resistance, lift it slightly and then press down again gently to settle the leaves.
Use a mixture of vinegar and water or a mild glass cleaner to restore clarity to the borosilicate glass.
Setting up the Assam Tea Press is straightforward: ensure the filter is securely attached to the plunger rod before use. The unit is designed for use with standard hot water; always ensure you are using water at the correct temperature to avoid damaging the glass. For care and maintenance, the teapot should be hand-washed with mild detergent and a soft sponge. While some parts may be dishwasher safe, hand-washing the borosilicate glass is recommended to maintain its clarity and prevent scratches. Always inspect the glass for small chips or cracks before heating to ensure safety.
