Thats exactly what you end up with when you reduce the plunger in a
tea press, except a little piece of rod sticking through the top which
you cap to hold the filter in place. Notice the filter just below the
spout. I did this for tea presses from 100mL to 1L which you can find
dirt cheap in discount stores. The owner of my local tea shoppe gave
me the heads up.

PS I would buy this one if I saw it in retail.
