Tea set and tea maker are both appliances for making tea, but their principles and uses are different.

1. Steamed tea set

A steaming tea set is a kind of apparatus for boiling tea with steam. A steaming tea set usually includes a saucer, a steamer, a strainer and a cover. After the water is heated to boiling, the sieve filled with tea leaves is put into the steamer, and then the steamer is covered on the saucer, so that the tea leaves are evenly expanded and inactivated in the steam, and the original fragrance and sweetness are maintained.

Steamed tea sets are suitable for making some high-grade green teas, such as Biluochun and Longjing. If tea leaves are not immobilized, it is easy to have a "green" taste.

2. Tea spoon

A tea stove is an appliance for boiling water and soaking tea leaves for cooking. Common tea makers are stainless steel tea makers, ceramic tea makers and glass tea makers. Boil water and tea leaves in a tea maker, and then pour the tea leaves into a teacup to make tea.

Tea boiler is suitable for making some old teas, such as Pu 'er tea and black tea. The tea leaves are completely soaked by the tea maker, and the rich aroma of the tea leaves is extracted. In addition, tea sets are often used for other purposes in home life, such as hot water disinfection.

In a word, steaming tea sets and tea makers are suitable for different tea-making methods, and the correct appliances should be selected according to the varieties and requirements of tea.
