TIPS fOR OPTIMAL TEA BREWING

• Water quality affects taste. For best
results, use filtered water.
• Finer tea particles and leaves will
infuse more quickly than whole leaves.
As a result, finer tea particles often
release too much tannin too quickly,
creating a harsher taste. Adjust the
brewing time until desired strength
is achieved.
• Using the tea scoop provided,
spoon roughly one scoop of tea
per cup / 8oz / 250ml of water.
