Steeping notes
-
First steeping - Tea: 3 grams. Time: 3-5 minutes. Water: 50C/122F, 80 ml.
The purpose of this steep is to create an rich, umami syrup-like broth. -
Second steeping - Time: immediate. Water: 70-90C/160-195F, 200 ml
In subsequent steeps, you've already primed the leaves and extracted much of the umami, so enjoy the other flavors with water at hotter temperatures. - Third / fourth steeping - Time: 30-60 seconds. Water: 70-90C/160-195F, 200 ml
- Remember, steeping at a hotter temperature extracts caffeine and bitter-tasting catechin (antioxidants) while cooler temperature extracts only the umami-tasting L-theanine and other sweet flavors. Since the bitter flavors overwhelm the umami flavors, we recommend the above.
- Also try cold steeping as well as ice steeping!
