Green Tea

Brewing Green Tea

Use about 1 level teaspoon per cup (adjust according to taste)
Add water that is around 75-80°C
Allow to brew for 1-3 mins and be careful not to over brew.

Green teas are very sensitive to water temperature. If the tea is infused with water that is too hot it will be rather bitter and display a slight 'metallic' taste. Get the water temperature correct and discover the true delights of green tea.

We recommend that for most green teas water temperature should be around 75°C to 80°C. In practical terms this means allowing the kettle to cool down for about 5-7 minutes after it has switched itself off from boiling... YES! AS LONG AS THIS!!
