Crafthouse by Fortessa Infuser

While the infuser is designed for spirits and cold drinks, the glass and stainless steel construction can handle warm liquids. However, avoid using boiling water to prevent thermal shock to the glass, and be mindful that the black walnut accents should not be submerged in high heat for extended periods.

The integrated strainer is designed to catch larger solids like fruit slices, herb sprigs, and whole spices. If you are using very fine ingredients like loose tea leaves or powdered spices, you may want to use an additional fine-mesh filter when pouring.

No, the infuser must be hand washed. The black walnut accents can warp or lose their finish if exposed to the high heat and harsh detergents of a dishwasher, and hand washing will help preserve the integrity of the wood and the overall aesthetic.

For stubborn residue, use a soft bottle brush with warm, soapy water. Avoid abrasive sponges or scouring pads, which can scratch the glass and dull its clarity over time.

Yes, the unit is designed with a lid to keep your infusions covered while they sit. This helps maintain the flavor profile and prevents any unwanted debris from entering the vessel during the infusion process.

Yes, the 44-ounce size is designed to fit on most standard refrigerator shelves. It is an excellent way to keep your pre-batched cocktails or infused spirits chilled and ready to serve.
