The type of tea determines the preset
temperature.
The respective dispensing temperatures
are recommended by Miele for making
these types of tea.
You can change the dispensing
temperatures of individual teas by
changing the brewing temperature for
a particular tea (see "Parameters -
Brewing temperature"). Temperatures
given are approximate and can vary
according to ambient conditions.
Whether you use loose tea leaves,
blended tea or tea bags depends on
your own personal preferences.
Follow the instructions for making
tea on the tea packaging.
The amount of tea to use varies from
one type of tea to the next. Always
follow the recommendations of the
manufacturer on the packaging or of
the supplier. The amount of hot water
used can be adjusted depending on the
type of tea and the size of the cup (see
"Portion size")
