Does this mesh ball work in all teapots? despite size?

No, it's really just designed to brew a single serving of tea 8oz to maybe 16oz maximum. Over filling the mesh ball doesn't allow for tea leave expansion and reduces the infusion. You could use several in a full tea pot in theory.

Check size, the opening only needs to be larger enough. 2" or larger. Estimated.

I wouldn't put it in a teapot - just put it in your mug and pour the water over top and let it steep in the mug.

I think it should work, the mesh ball is good enough to hold loose tea for 2 cups of water and the stem is long enough to stand still on my long coffee mug.

If you are doing only a cup of almond milk at a time, this might work. It is just 3-inches in diameter, and it fits nicely into a mug when steeping a cup of hot tea. The mesh is very fine, and catches all but the finest particles of tea leaves. However, if you are wanting to strain a larger quantity of almond milk, you would want a larger strainer for the job.

It fit mine, which I guess is a stardard size . Only long term issue I have found is that when you want to fill a pot with water it takes a long time.

Good question, I purchased the G&H; Tea Services Paris Tea-Cup Fits 2-1/2-Inch to 4-Inch openings Use in teapots or teacups. this is the best tea infuser ever! However, the depth of two inches is perfect but the top of four inches protrudes out of the pot. I steep in a separate container then transfer. The teapot top opening is Two and one-quarter inches across. I hope this is helpful.

I find only two Le Creuset knobs on Amazon. The small one is the same diameter as my Le Creuset teapot knob but appears to not be tall enough, perhaps only one inch compared to the two inch height of the teapot knob. It might do the job in a pinch.

The diameter of the tea ball is 1-5/8 in. The handle is 5-1/2 in. from it's attachment point on ball to the end of the handle.

I don't see why it wouldn't. I may be a little large since a teapot is usually smaller than a Keurig but should be OK.Good idea.

I use a tea ball for loose teas and have never encountered your problem. It is a very lovely tea pot and we use it daily.

I had the same complaints with my teapot. I was surprised that a big name company would produce a teapot with problems like you indicated. I finally gave up and it went to Goodwill.

Great product! I have an average coffee mug. I don't think it would fit a teapot. I don't use it for taht. I use it for my tea/coffee mug. I don't drink coffee, but I drink my tea in a mug not a tea cup. I would think a teacup would be a bit shallow.

The Good Grips Twisting Tea Ball has a 1.5 inch diameter; therefore, it's possible to cram two tea bags into it but am not sure how easy it would be to twist the ball "close" or how well it would ultimately work. Should you be comfortable emptying the contents of the two tea bags into the infuser like loose-tea, then it would work just fine.

Yes it should work just fine with any large wand. It uses a lot of regular dishsoap though, also, so be forewarned! :) Still worth it...the bubbles are amazingly huge and so fun!

The bottom of the small Bee House measures 4 inches long (end to end), while the smaller inner circle (designed to fit on top of the mug, or pot in your case) is 2.5 inches. I have no experience with the other pots you mentioned so i can not comment, but if the opening of those pots are less than 4 inches in diameter it should work just fine. Hope that answers your question! Edit: this is the quote from the product description "It will also fit the top of any mug that is between 3 inches to 3.5 inches in diameter." There is a more definitive answer.

You might want the larger size. If you use the larger one, I think it should work just fine. Be careful as you remove it from the pot. It will need to besupported because it will flatten out without the sides of the pot to shape it.

Yes, if you have one with a rounded bottom that will fit the base of the tea maker.

infusers are not designed for tea bags, they're to be used with loose tea that has not been ground finely like the bags. The ball is 2" diameter, so place the amount of loose tea that you hope to use into a piece of plastic wrap and roll it into a ball. If the size is under 2" in diameter, this will work for you.

Depending on the shape of the handle of your teapot, these should work. They aren't that wide, so you might need 2. I've been happy with my handles, but I am using them on pot & pan lids.
