The verdict
Where this pick fits.
Borosilicate glass with a stainless steel infuser sleeve. Watch the leaves bloom and the water turn amber in real time. Refractive light through wet leaves is the entire point.
Glass walls. Watch the water turn. The whole point is seeing it happen. It earned its spot in our lineup by solving the stage it's supposed to solve, without pretending to solve every stage after it.
