How are the size and shape of the tea residue filter tube designed?

The size and shape of the tea residue filter tube are not designed randomly, but are carefully considered to meet the various needs of the tea brewing process and enhance the user experience.In terms of size, its length is usually determined by the height of common tea sets. Generally speaking, it needs to be long enough to reach the inside of the teapot, teacup or fairness cup to effectively filter the tea residue, but not too long to cause inconvenience in operation or occupy too much space in the tea set. For example, for ordinary teapots, the length of the tea residue filter tube is mostly between 8 and 12 cm. This length can reach the bottom of the pot for sufficient filtration, but it is not too long to be difficult to control when holding it. The design of the diameter is more clever, ensuring that there is enough filtration area to speed up the filtration speed, and at the same time, it must be adapted to tea sets of different calibers. The common diameter is 2 to 4 cm. On the basis of ensuring filtration efficiency, this size can be well connected with the openings of most teapots and teacups, and it will not be too loose to cause incomplete filtration or too tight to be difficult to insert.In terms of shape, the tea residue filter tube is mostly cylindrical. The advantage of this shape is that it has a stable structure. Whether it is placed on a flat surface or used in a tea set, it can stand or hang steadily. Moreover, the cylindrical side can provide a large filtering area, so that the tea residue is fully in contact with the filter tube wall, improving the filtering effect. The two ends of the tube body are usually specially treated. One end is designed to be slightly narrowed to facilitate insertion into the spout or cup of the tea set and reduce tea spillage; the other end may have a small bulge or edge to facilitate the user's hand-held operation to prevent slipping during the filtering process.In addition, some tea residue filter tubes will also be innovatively designed in shape. For example, some will be designed with a slightly curved shape to better fit the internal curve of the teapot and capture the tea residue more comprehensively during filtering. Others will add some grooves or textures to the tube body. These designs can increase friction and facilitate hand-holding on the one hand, and on the other hand, they can also guide the flow direction of the tea to a certain extent, making the filtering process smoother and more efficient. In short, the size and shape design of the tea residue filter tube is a perfect combination of practicality and aesthetics. Every detail is designed to bring a convenient, efficient and pleasant tea brewing experience to tea lovers.
