People often ask me, "How can I brew tea to make it taste better?" It's actually quite simple. Now, I'll share with you four practical tools that I've summarized to help you brew better-tasting tea!
-
Temperature Control Kettle
A temperature control kettle allows you to adjust the water temperature for different teas, ensuring each type is brewed to perfection. Whether it's 100 degrees for certain teas or a cooler 90 degrees for others, this kettle has got you covered.
-
Digital Scale
Precision is key in tea brewing, and a digital scale ensures you get the perfect tea-to-water ratio every time. No more guesswork - just accurate measurements for a consistently delicious brew.
-
The Right Water
The quality of water can make or break your tea. Soft water with the right mineral content brings out the best in tea, enhancing its aroma and flavor. For those in North America, mountain spring water is a great choice. Experiment with different water types to find your favorite.
-
The Ideal Brewing Vessel
A good brewing vessel is as important as the tea itself. Porcelain is a versatile choice that reveals the true character of any tea. For aromatic teas, use porcelain with small pores; for mellow teas like aged white or Pu'erh, opt for Zisha or wood-fired vessels with larger pores for a richer taste.
