A tumbler 'Twisty' review that allows you to twist the bottle to separate black tea and tea leaves, keep the strength you like, and keep warm



There must be many people who have experienced 'I wanted to drink black tea, but when I was concentrating on my work, the tea came out too much and it became astringent ...'. In order to prevent such a sad situation, 'Twisty ' is a tumbler that can separate tea leaves and black tea when the extraction concentration reaches your liking and keep a certain concentration. As a tea lover, I had no choice but to try it, so I actually bought it and used it.

Twisty is delivered in a transparent case like this.



Looking at the side, the content is 380 ml, the heat resistant temperature is 100 degrees, the cold resistant temperature is -20 degrees, and you can enjoy both hot water and water.



The case contains an instruction manual, notes, and the main body.



The size of the main body is 67 mm in diameter × 205 mm in height, which is about this compared to the iPhone SE with a total length of 123.8 mm.



It looks like this when you hold it in your hand, and it weighs 330g by itself.



The letters 'Max' on the side of the bottle indicate the maximum water level.



Twisty had caps on both sides of the bottle, and when I opened the outer pig on one side, there was a black inner pig inside.



When I removed the cap on the other side, it contained a metal filter for tea leaves.



The bottle is designed to partition the part where the metal filter is located. When the circle on the main body side and the '○' on the cap side of the metal plate on the side of the bottle match, liquid can pass between the partitions.



If you look at it, both holes in the two dividers match.



However, if you twist both sides of the metal plate and match the circle on the main body side with '●' ...



The position of the hole shifts and the liquid cannot pass through.



So, I will actually make tea using twisty. first. Put the tea leaves of black tea in the metal filter ...



Tighten the cap tightly.



Turn the bottle over and open the other cap.



If you pour hot water here ...



The light blue gradually becomes darker.



If you think it's just right, turn the bottle over and move the tea inside completely to one side.



After turning the bottle over, all you have to do is twist the bottle to separate the tea leaves from the tea. As you can see from the movie below, at first it was necessary to put a lot of effort into twisting.

If you look at the bottle after twisting, you can see that there is no tea below the metal plate. At this time, all the liquid moves to the part above the metal plate and the water level rises, so it is necessary to keep the Max line when adding hot water.




You don't have to have an inner pig, but if you put it on, you can prevent the liquid from flowing out at once, which is convenient when you drink black tea directly from the bottle.



After that, you can thoroughly enjoy the tea that is kept to the strength you like.



It's a convenient size to carry around, so it's easy to take it to a picnic, etc ...



Even at home, school, office, etc., it is convenient because there is no such thing as 'I noticed that the tea was too much and it was astringent ...'. It seems that it can be used in various situations.



The amount of 380 ml is about two tea cups.



Even if you run out of black tea, you can make a second brew just by turning it over and pouring hot water.



In addition, it is said that the bottle has a two-layer structure not to keep warm , but to prevent the outside from becoming hot and dew condensation, but how the temperature of the liquid inside changes. I will also look at it. First, when I measured the temperature when I made black tea, it was 76.8 degrees. The bottle is lightly warmed by pouring hot water in advance before making black tea.



Even when the temperature of the tea in the bottle is over 75 degrees, you can hold the bottle by hand without any problem.



When I measured it with 'FLIR ONE ', which uses a smartphone as a thermo camera, the side of the bottle was 49.5 degrees.



About an hour after making the tea, the temperature of the tea reaches 48.4 degrees.



After another hour, it was 38.3 degrees. It is said that the double structure is not for heat retention, but since the temperature of about 40 degrees is maintained even after 2 hours have passed, it is not possible to say 'make tea in the morning and get hot until noon'. It seems that you can enjoy tea at your own pace without saying, 'I made tea with all my might, but when I noticed it was cold when I was working ...'.



I also enjoyed cleaning the metal filter after making tea, saying, 'Just throw the tea leaves in the trash can and wash them.' Since the filter has a fine mesh, the tea leaves will not be clogged.



By the way, can you make it with a tea bag? So I tried it. Put the tea bag with the thread cut in the bottle with the metal filter removed ...



Pour hot water.



It turned out that tea leaves and black tea can be separated and can be used in tea bags without any problems. Tea bags are even easier because you don't have to rinse the metal filter. It has become an item that can be used by both those who want to stick to tea leaves and those who want to emphasize efficiency.
