Who is it for

The timeless brewer.

If you lean on your dishwasher, prefer a pure steel design, this strainer is made for you. Durable, classic, and built to last through years of chai rituals.

Why We Made It

Choice for every kitchen.

Some chai makers want something quicker between brews, others want the simplicity of pure steel - strong, enduring, and ready for the dishwasher. The Stainless Steel Strainer keeps things timeless.

Loka Chai Maker

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.

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.

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.

Your question, answered

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

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.
