Who is it for

Chai lovers on the move.

If you hand-wash, brew multiple rounds, or want a quick level check, this strainer slips into your routine. Soft grip, quick clean, effortless to handle.

Why We Made It

Choice for every kitchen.

Some chai makers love classic steel, others want something softer and quicker between brews. The Silicone Strainer brings both together: the durability of steel with the everyday comfort and easy clean of silicone.

Loka Chai Maker
Silicone Strainer

Both built for perfect chai - choose which fits your kitchen ritual

We offer the Loka Chai Maker with two strainer options – both engineered for perfect chai, every time. Each is built for safety, durability, and ease. The only question is which one best suits your kitchen ritual.

Silicone Strainer

NEW
  • Hybrid design: highest quality food-grade silicone upper + stainless steel mesh base
  • Stainless steel base with fine mesh to deliver full flavour
  • Dishwasher safe or quick and easy hand-wash
Choose Silicone for quick hand-washing and multiple daily brews.

Stainless Steel Strainer

  • Classic, ultra-durable design
  • Fine mesh delivers full flavour
  • Best for those with a good quality dishwasher or or who prefer a pure metal part
Choose Stainless Steel if you plan to put in dishwasher after every use.

Your question, answered

Both are designed for perfect chai. Choose Silicone if you hand-wash often and want the fastest cleanup. Choose Stainless Steel if you prefer a pure metal part or mainly use a dishwasher.

No. The stainless steel mesh does the brewing, so taste is identical across both strainers. We also don’t compromise on materials - the silicone is the highest‑quality available and certified to EU, FDA, LFGB, and REACH standards

Yes. The silicone version separates into two parts for quick hand-washing. The stainless version is dishwasher safe and simple to maintain.

Because chai rituals differ. Some prefer the durability and simplicity of pure steel, others value the convenience of silicone. Both deliver the same great results - it’s all about your preference.

    Easy chai

    Namaste. I love my new Loka chai maker, could almost be back in India.

    I made my first cups today with their Masala chai blend. Delicious and easy to use and hand wash after. The how to video is brilliant.
