What's your take on this contraption? It supposedly stops your biscuit crumbling into your tea. please log in to view this image http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2757820/Now-THAT-S-teabag-Mesh-biscuit-catcher-stops-soggy-crumbs-ruining-brew.html?ito=social-twitter_mailonline#ixzz3DWAC8IOG It's largely irrelevant to this non-dunking coffee-drinker.
Part of the joy of dunking is the contest between the integrity and the solubility of the biscuit. No doubt ER will clear this up.
I'm against it. People who **** up the dunk should not be protected from the consequences of their own actions. It's all about the timing, and that moment when you think "I might have overdone it here, my biscuit's gonna go". Lose that tension and you lose everything.

It's the excitement of that moment in time when you may have just let the biscuit dunk for too long before stuffing it in your mouth, the tension is unbearable as you say to yourself "have I left it too long" and the soggy biscuit falls to the bottom of the mug to be retrieved with a teaspoon later. It's a delicate balance and a decision not for the faint hearted. Life is full of dilemmas though.
I always saw it as win-win because if the biscuit breaks, you still get to enjoy the biscuit-soup at the bottom of the mug.
Anyone ever dip their balls in their mates pint when he has to leave it unattended to go the toilet ? Oh such a laugh telling him to enjoy the chlamydia and watching the **** squirm and empty reach.
