When it says enjoy 3-5 cups daily, are you expected to use a new tea bag for every cup of tea?

Yes you need to use a new bag each time. The tea isn't strong enough to recycle. I steeped a second bag in boiling hot water for 20minutes and it still tasted like water.

I brew 3 bags at one time with the proper amount of water (24oz for 3 bags) and I drink it for half of day then brew 3 more in the afternoon and drink it all by bedtime. I would not have the patience to drink a cup at a time. It has worked amazingly for me. I add almond, coconut or soy milk to mine.

I do yes. I want fresh tea. The potency I would also assume helps with lactation.

If you wanted to use tea bags, why did you buy the tea pot in the first place? You can just use any cup for that.

You can find recommended amounts of tea bags or tablespoons of loose tea in the owner's manual. Since many people's tastes vary, you can use more or less depending on how you prefer your tea. We advise trying different amounts to find the best mixture for your taste.

2 to 3 cups if using a larger japanese tea cup... If using a 60 ml cup maybe four, especially if you are doing a gung fu type serving- several smaller servings in a row...

I have had this teapot for almost a year, and never knew it was called a "chai" pot. As far as I can see it seems absolutely normal to me. I use it for making 3-4 larger cups of tea daily (with teabags). My favorite teapot, by the way.

Three cups as in one gets three regular sized cups of tea from it. I really like mine.

Yes. I thought I was ordering just one box of 100 tea bags, but instead I ordered 5 boxes of 100 tea bags each. We still have a lot l left, needless to say. The tea is ok. I think I got spoiled by some loose leaf organic green tea I got from some company I can't find anymore. Pooh.

We use 20 cups per week, in your case this may not be good. Fresh tea always has nice flavor.

You can probably stuff up to 20 Lipton individually wrapped tea bags in each section, but as the other reviewers have mentioned, it will be tight and you will not be able to read the label on each bag. Each compartment will hold 15 easily. Just for comparison- I was also able to comfortably fit 15 STASH tea bags in a section and 7 Celestial Seasonings packets (each has 4 tea bags in it, but you will need to remove one of the short dividers for this) in the box.

I would use 3 tea bags. But please! Venture into loose tea, you will love it!

Hi Courtney. It's pretty strong. I would start with one tea bag with three cups of water. Don't forget to allow bag to steep 5-10 minutes.

Definitely. In fact you realize you usually use too much tea with traditional teapots (and waste). You can easily run a second batch. Just add half a spon on top.

I make one cup per bag. This tea is fabulous. I would highly recommend it to someone who would like to try some new flavors. It's a wonderful variety with the standard teas included.

Yes, definitely. I used it for tea as well just the way it is. If I need more than just one cup of tea, I would measure the water, and placed the tea bags in the infuser and make three, or four cups of tea at once. Good luck.

I agree, it depends on the size of your cup, but 6 to 8 cups should be about right.Nancy A.

I use 4 standard green tea bags. You could also use 1 of the family sized bags as well.

Yes, there are 100 individually wrapped tea bags.....just like normal tea bags...1 per cup. My cup is big so I like 2 bags. You will love it! Great flavor.
