Oh no Chemekke!! Yikes, as Chip said, that's two people!!
I think the only way to glue would be to secure with rubber bands.
You may need a cardboard circle cut to fit to help stabilize.
In my cup this morning - Ying De Red, Fall 2008 from Red Circle Tea.
According to Red Circle it's a "hybrid of Feng Huang Dan Chong and
Yunnan big leaf."
Have a nice day everyone!

The only "golden oldie I have is my metal tea infusor so I have to go with the favorite new vessel which is my 100ml gaiwan from yunnan sourcing.

My vessel that reigns supreme is neither an oldie or a newbie. (Considering I've only been drinking tea a few months) But it is my infuser mug from Rishi in which I brew my black teas. I use it nearly everyday since I replaced my daily coffee with a daily black tea. Sadly I don't have as much time to sit down and use my other pots to brew greens and oolongs. So those pots don't get used as much. I do have a few yixing pots on the way so we shall see!
Chiran sencha supreme right now. I think I actually prefer this one over YM.

Good news in case you did not know, Chiran Supreme is also Yutaka Midori breed leaf! So, you are safe for now. Chiran is a famous old samurai town, so you will want to watch what you say about Chiran Supreme.danibob wrote: Chiran sencha supreme right now. I think I actually prefer this one over YM.

Ha, I missed that, I think that is new, but I have not read the description for a couple years, just click "buy now."brlarson wrote:O-Cha now says of YM, ``Considered by many connoisseurs to be our finest sencha green tea! '', at least I think that's been newly added.
I am still not declaring a favorite newbie since I have too many newbies to choose from
, but it is definitely NOT a golden oldie. I have yet to share what is in my cup today, however it has been a great TeaDay. Started the day with the very same O-Cha Chiran mentioned above, quite tasty, then Kagoshima from Yuuki-Cha (also YM leaf), and finally Sencha Premier from Adagio, all very enjoyable sessions. SweeTea managed to be right by my side each time so she certainly had a banner TeaDay as well. Pyrit is always close by, but thankfully does not enjoy good tea, TEAh, stuck her head in my empty Hagi cup, but I don't think she is becoming a convert.

Don't have a single favorite brewing vessel, but since really most of my brewing vessels have only been mine for a year or less, I'd have to say my fav is a newbie!
This morning I shared a nice pot of Kenilworth Ceylon with my DH. He asked "what's the difference between this and a teabag?" I opened his favorite Lipton teabag and poured the contents on a saucer...I was surprised to see how much tea was in there and how much it is "dust" no wonder you can make a cup of tea that will strip paint with that!
After having lunch out and running a bunch of errands, I made a 2nd steep. Sat outside (unexpectedly sunny and warmish today) and savored the tea and the day!
Tonight I was craving greens...right now in my cup Den's green kukicha. First time for trying this tea...I like it a lot. It brews up a nice clear clean pale green color. It has a light clean refreshing flavor. It is not as intensely flavorful as sencha, but it is about half the price, so I think it is quite a bargain. If you see more posts from me later on you'll know if the caffeine level is high or not!
Happy steeps,
