Anyone know where they sell that tea brewer that has the pump action?

You can also get the same type of tea pot without the pump but has that little screen for about 10 bucks at Ikea. It's kind of a novelty if you ask me to use for a single person. You could use a tea infuser instead with any type of pot or jug if you really frequently use that method of tea making.

In another thread, someone mentioned that it was this one made by Bodum:

The thing I liked about the tea pump (French Press?) is that it seemed to make the tea much stronger. Also, it looks like they can be used with Teabags instead of just tea leaves, no?

Getting fresh tea leaves for the infuser might be a bit trickier...

You can use either loose tea or tea bags with either option.

Not the same one, but after watching the episode I looked around a little and found the IngenuiTEA 16oz Teapot (http://www.thinkgeek.com/caffeine/accessories/96bb/) on ThinkGeek.com. I'm thinking about getting this one.
