I would have no place at the house for something that big... I might could go with something like this:

I have seen 1 1/2 liter size electric ones but they are rare.

Although you'll see tea in this,it is primarily russian food.First part is breads and then it goes into everything else.....Geeze man I love Slavic food. I seem to really like this form of self torture heh......

As I go through this tread I have noticed several things...

1. There are so many diffrent tea types

2. There are so many ways to brew tea

3. There is so many types of drink wear

4. We each have our favorite

I'll be honest, my favorite brew style & type of tea would have to be Middle Eastern, SADAF would probably be my favorite brand and served in Middle Eastern drink wear... Don't get me wrong, I like all the diffrent teas, but if I had to choose one style, there it is...

Seems Chad & Steph like their Russian Teas, while other's like Asia...

Da moi druge ! I like my rusky cha !

i agree with everything you just said, and as for my teas, i pretty much like all of them,just not big on English or what i would consider mild(to my palette) asains. i like stronger and much bolder teas. that being said, i wont turn anything down without really trying it first. and Steph, it was a traditional one,not electric, that's why im kicking myself.

MichaelFrancis, Don,
the response of my friend from Dragon Tea House:

Hi Béla,

Thank you for the link, the new delivery ship is impressive ;-)

We do have some problem with China customs recently, shipping time
takes much longer than it was, for Russian custoners, they may wait
for more than two months now. We are so sorry for this. The situation
is improving now. We are having holidays for Chinese lunar new year
from Feb. 7 to Feb. 17.
Happy the year of snake!

Thanks, Bela.

I'm not sure it's China customs that is the problem. All of the problems I have with international packages come from NY customs.
