A tea maker gives you the same quality as traditional tea preparation while saving your time and facilitating the whole process. There are a variety of tea makers on the market, but all boil down to two main types: manual and electric ones. The manual tea maker requires you to first boil the water and only then pour it into the infuser.

This type is highly popular because of the ease of use, compact design, and is perfect for using outdoors. Electric machines utilize electricity to brew tea, something that makes the process quicker and easier. They automatically boil the water, cool down the tea, and offer extra features like the auto shut off and different levels of brew strength.

Best Tea Makers Compared

In this guide, we have rounded up the most popular tea makers in the UK that feature different designs and functionality. The Bodum ASSAM Tea Maker is perhaps the best teapot on the British market. Suitable for both tea bags and loose tea, it preserves maximum flavor and aroma. The teapot features a borosilicate glass body and a filter with an elastic silicone rim.

The product comes in two capacity options — 0.5L and 1L — and is also available as a set including one 1-liter tea maker and two 0.35-liter mugs. Note that the 0.5-liter option has a stainless steel filter while the 1-liter one is made with a plastic filter. 

If you want a Bodum teapot with a capacity of 1 liter yet with a stainless steel filter, go for the Bodum ASSAM SET Tea Press.

Additionally, this brand offers a high-end model — the Bodum Chambord Tea Pot with a classic design and a practical filter system. Stainless steel filter, lid, and frame as well as a heat-resistant borosilicate glass body. This elegant teapot comes in three colors: shiny silver, gold, and rose copper.

If you like a bedside tea maker, look for a vintage Swan Teasmade tea maker. It allows you to wake up to a hot cup of tea or coffee every morning. It boils enough water (600 ml) for at least two cups of tea or coffee.

If you are looking for a tea-making machine, you may like an electric double-decked Arzum Turkish Tea Maker. The lower pot is 1.7 litres and is used for boiling water. Tea leaves are put into the upper teapot, and when water is ready, it is poured from the lower pot into the upper one to start the infusion process. It can be used to brew any other tea, including herbal tea.

If you are looking for something unusual, try this Teabloom Stovetop & Microwave Safe Glass Teapot. This tea maker is fully made of handcrafted borosilicate glass and includes two Teabloom jasmine-infused tea flowers. It offers a generous 1.2-litre capacity and brews up to 5 cups of tea. You can buy this stylish teapot for yourself or as a gift for someone special.

For sleepyheads, we recommend the Breville BRITA HotCup Hot Water Dispenser with Integrated Water Filter. This 3.000-watt device is ideal for instant tea as it boils a cup of water in less than a minute. That said, it is made with a huge, 1.8-litre tank that holds enough water for up to 9 persons.

If you need a portable single-person tea maker, we advise that you get this Bodum Tea for One Glass with Tea Infuser with a capacity of 0.35 litres. It includes a tea glass, an infuser, and a lid to keep your tea warm. The device holds both the leaves and heat well while being not too hot on your hands. Measuring 10.8 cm in width and 14.6 cm in height, the product weighs less than 200 grams.

For Matcha tea you will like T2 Insulated Matcha Tea Flask. This 300ml stainless steel flask is ideal to brew you matcha the old fashioned way.
