Tea bag/tea filters.... which and where and who and how?

[illspeed]

I just started using tea bags today. I cut the bag around the sides to make two squares. then rolled one up fairly loose and pulled the old filler out of an old cart. I cut the rolled teabag to 3/4 the size of the filler that was in the cart then i cut the original filler down to a quarter. Then i cut the rolled and now sized teabag lengthwise about halfway to create "fingers" i inserted it into the car then put the factory filler on top of it. So far it seems to last much longer than just the filler than came with the carts to begin with and hasnt become mushy at all. the draw is really good too. This is on a 510 cart.

oh btw i just used supermarket storebrand teabrand teabags

also does anyone else taste a tiny bit of tea or just my imagination?

here is a little video i made on how to do this with a 510 cart...

it is not probably the best way but it is by far the quickest i have found!

be sure to fluff the material a bit once its in the cart i did not really do it in the video but it is what it is...

Curiosity got the better of me. Trying a rolled piece of unbleached coffee filter paper now.

Not bad. We'll see how it works for a while..

Cool! Next payday I'm hitting the Big Lots down the street to stock up on tea bags for cheap. Wait, I have some tea bags I never use lying around in the kitchen!

ETA: This tastes great. And thanks to the video it was uber easy. Thanks for posting.

Thank you so much for sharing/making that! Probably one of the best one's I've seen to date!
After destroying most of my tea bags a few weeks ago trying to learn it off what I was reading, looks like I'm going to have to get more and try it again!!

Awesome!
And thanks to the OP for getting some of this all in one thread!
When I first heard about using tea bags, I immediately considered using some "Good Earth" tea that I've had for awhile. It's a really spicy tea, and since my "regular" cigarettes are cloves, definitely NOT a problem if there's some legacy taste.

This is from bizzyb0t
There's been some recent developments in cart filler materials. Tea bags made of hemp (I use nylon gossamer tea bags with great results, personally), coffee filters, etc.

Since Nylon melts at 350+ F and Polyester melts at 255+ F, I figured it was a smart choice. You heard it here first

Someone else came up with using tea bags in general, but I came up with using rolled strips of nylon gossamer. For one, wicking is out of this world, durable, doesn't melt when touching a really hot atomizer bridge like polyester and washable/reusable. Holds the juice without trying to keep it.

I have been using these the past week or so and they work great, they don't seem to wear out.

Thanks for this iiMath,

I was looking for the exact way to do just this. Looks pretty easy and I have a ton of bulk teabags from China Town that I don't plan on drinking. Recycling at its best.

Peace,
