It is no secret to regular readers of this blog that I have a tea problem. This is a solution for my tea problem, a 10-piece set of various tea accessories! It’s a Mind Reader tea organizer that includes:

• six square tins/canisters for loose leaf tea (or anything else you want to put inside them)
• one steel loose leaf infuser with a separate lid (this counts as two items)
• one tea spoon (for picking tea leaves, not for stirring/drinking tea)
• Two-story Tray, open up top with drawer at the bottom

You can use them all together as a set, or split them up for different uses in your kitchen or office. The last picture in the gallery over there shows general dimensions of the products.

It is currently on sale for $25 at Amazon by Amazon actual where it averages 4.5 out of 5 based on 31 customer reviews.

NOTE: some of the earlier reviews said that the products they received were slightly different from the pictures shown at the Amazon page, so check the customer reviews (they include pictures) to make sure you are okay with either option!

TIP: whenever you see empty canisters or containers that say “hold 4oz of tea”, keep in mind this is stupid. Tea varies in size and weight, you cannot measure an empty container’s volume by weight. An accurate way to give a measurement would be of something known, eg the container can hold 4 fluid ounces (a measurement of volume).

If you buy a lot of loose leaf tea, or you like to share your purchases with friends and vice versa, it’s a good idea to have extra tins for storage and sharing. Low cost so you won’t cry when you give them away, but still usable enough 🙂 Which brings us to this 6-pack of a 3×3 inch square tin going for $10 total at Amazon.com. The top is transparent, so you can see what’s inside. It is about two inches tall. It averages 4.4 out of 5 based on 130+ customer reviews. Again though, consider the price, you can’t expect miracles at $1.75 per tin! Limit thirty six-packs per customer.

NOTE: it holds about 8 oz by volume, not by weight. This is obvious when you think about it, because you can’t measure an empty space by weight. If you fill it with feathers, it will weigh a lot less than 8 oz. If you fill it with heavy metals, it will weigh a lot more than 8 oz.

TIP: if you are looking to get some tea so you can fill them up and hand them off to friends and family, here’s a good bang for the buck, 1 lb of Gunpowder Green Tea from Davidson Teas for $10 (or less if you do “Subscribe & Save”).
