    Could be a problem if you microwave it together with the tea bag.

    Also I find microwaves to not heat up the water properly, leaving some cold spots.

      The microwaves will heat your water more evenly than a kettle.

      Liquids have this amazing property, that if you heat them , they auto-stir just by themselves.

      (But personally, I’m uneasy about microwaving a tea bag with paper on one end, or worse, a staple. There’s probably no problem at all, but it doesn’t feel that way.)

      So give it a quick stir? Also if it’s at a boil, the bubbles are going to mix the fluid well.
