While making a perfect cup of tea involving teabags is akin to making a perfect sandwich with American Wonder Bread, steeping the tea for the correct duration is not only the most important part but the easiest part to absent-mindedly overdo (resulting in sour, acidic tea fit only for dyeing dirty socks a chic shade of cream). You can substitute for brain-function with a Penguin Teaboy, a cute little bird with a timer in his side. Set the timer for the proper tea steeping phase, attach the teabag string to his beak, and when the tea is done, the Teaboy will lift the teabag out of the infusion. $19. [GT]
