New machine could spell the end of Teabags

The humble teabag could be squeezed out of kitchens after scientists brewed up plans for the perfect cuppa.

A prototype machine which has been developed promises a quicker, better and cleaner brew, which could challenge the dominance of coffee makers such as the Nespresso.
