I have a small, weabout 2 cups size, porcelan(suramic?) tea pot. I just put dry loose tea leaves inside and poor hot water over it. I make it very strong. Then when I am ready to drink tea I just put some in my cup and add hot water. Of course it could be kept hot or warm, but I do not like scalding hot tea so if it is cold it's even better. Just like in the olden days, before tea bags.
