not tried it.. but in theory it would work.. Although I'd assume it would be very like cotton wicks in the sense that it would burn easily... What was it made of?

'not all teabags are created equal' Some nutter (some time in the past maybe?)

Well I suppose the paper used for t bags is clean as can be being suitable for use with a consumable and I do see the theory if you manage to make a hollow tube with the paper aiding the wicking process

You got a link to the page ?

I think you're maybe incorrect on that note, or they wouldn't sell unbleached teabags. Same with cotton, gotta make sure it's unbleached (organic).

Wasn't it a specific lemon teabg that was used 'back in the day' of attys and refillable fibre filled whatsits

EDIT: I'm half sure it was lipton lemon teabags that has some special properties. Like the replacement poly fill had to be fluuval and blue foam was like unicorn poop to get hold of

teabag bag as a wick

I wouldn't touch it personally. Teabags are white due to a process called chlorine bleaching*. I guess you might be able to boil it first to make it safe (anyone?) but if you're doing that it's a terrible waste of a cuppa.

*Totally Chlorine Free (TCF) Bleaching exists as well, but to my knowledge I've never found a way to tell which method a particular brand uses.

I have been experimenting with ecowool and cotton wicks

Similar in that I have been rolling the cotton and using it as a 'centre' in the ecowool, so far it has turned out really good!!!
