brewing temperature may drop by 10-20 ° C, tealeaves
warm unevenly, brewing mode is disturbed which very
badly affects the result. It is important to follow three basic
rules when warming the teapot:
1. The teapot should be heated evenly;
2. The teapot should be about the same temperature as
the water with which you intend to make tea; Warmed
teapot should be dry. If you have no habit of drinking green
tea, add more tealeaves because compared with black
teas their taste seem weaker.
If you brew tea in a hard water, add more tealeaves be-
cause hard water impairs the transmission of tea taste. If
you drink a small leaf tea, you can reduced the dose for 1-2
teaspoons, as small leaf teas have a sharper flavor. If you
drink tea immediately after a hearty meal or smoking, a
standard dose of tealeaves must be increased, because
mouth feel is usually blunted.
Procedure of adding tealeaves into the teapot must be per-
formed as fast as possible: quickly open the teapot, quickly
add the required amount of tealeaves into the teapot, pour
boiling water and close. It is recommended when adding
tealeaves, to make a couple of shaking circular motions,
as if «smudging» tealeaves inside the hot teapot. Pouring
boiling water over the tealeaves can be done in one or
more steps. Most standard scheme for brewing black tea,
to brew it in two steps: first, the boiling water is poured on
a volume of about 1/3 of the teapot, the tea is swelling for
1-2 minutes and then topped up with boiling water, and
then you have to wait until the tea is brewed. Black tea can
withstand no more than two infusions. Brew it once, and
immediately refill it with boiling water, the gap between the
first and second brewing, must not be more than ten min-
utes. White and green teas can be refilled 3-4 times.
Infusion – is a very delicate process. Cover the teapot with
a cloth and put it in a secluded place, or directly on the
table. In any case, you should not heat the teapot or boil
tealeaves.
Black tea is brewed for 3-5 minutes. Oolong and green
teas are brewed for 1-3 minutes.
