How to preserve the tea after it is bought? the best preservation method is recommended for tea maintenance.

Storage of tea, herbal tea, herbal tea and other types has always been a worry for ordinary consumers? "How long, how to put it, where to put it, and whether to use different containers" are the most frequently asked questions.

For tea drinkers of ordinary consumers, although they do not have to reach the high standard of Pu 'er old tea and aged oolong tea, the target is expected to be placed in a high-standard environment for decades, but there are still a few things to pay attention to:

Avoid sunlight

reduce air

Reduce moisture content

Most of them will see the tea leaves we take home. At first, they will drink happily every day. If they drink quickly, it will be fine. If they drink slowly, there will always be cases where they like the new and hate the old. They want to change their tastes. The rest of the tea will be thrown away for a few months. It is difficult to guarantee that the next time they look back at tea, they will spend a year. If properly stored and sealed, even if it lasts for two years after opening, the flavor change and qualitative change are still acceptable.

Use dehumidifier and moisture box to reduce moisture

Will see many experts, will open dehumidifier at home, set constant temperature every night, constant humidity, is the most brilliant practice, but for ordinary people too difficult, but also a little to provide in Taipei City belongs to the humidity environment, should try to control the relative humidity RH below 50, will be a better storage environment, from time to time or in good weather days ventilation.

Choose a container of good quality to resist light and oxygen

Good quality containers, for stereotypes many people will choose pottery urn, is the traditional old tea should be installed in the old concept of urn. However, it may not be a good choice to put it in pottery and porcelain. Pottery with large pores will still circulate air, which means tea is still breathing, and the conversion speed will be relatively fast. For the idea of keeping fresh, it is not suitable for ordinary consumers. The porcelain is also faced with the problem of whether the tea or herbal tea originally put in is dry enough. If the water content is too high, it is like steaming in porcelain, and it is more likely to mold. Especially for fruit tea, the moisture cannot escape. This problem may be greater than that of pottery jars.

Glass and plastic are often transparent, which makes it easy to deteriorate in storage, but it is inevitable to see foreign black tea brands are displayed in glass, which is the attribute problem of black tea placed in glass, and there will not be too much change. On the contrary, green tea and oolong tea, because the degree of oxidation is not high, the probability of such storage deterioration will be greatly increased, which is a problem to pay attention to.

What should I do if I live in a place with heavy humidity?

Of course, the purchase of vacuum sealing machine is the best way, the use of aluminum foil packaging bags, can protect from light, waterproof moisture into, but also can vacuum to reduce the oxygen content in the bag, seems to be the best way. There are more simplified portable vacuum machines on the market, but the loss of vacuum is also easy to occur, borrowed from friends to use many times, occasionally there will be air leakage regret. After all, as long as the vacuum is lost, oxygen will enter the conversion will become faster, but if you are a friend who is interested in convenience, just want tea leaves, spices, etc. not to deteriorate so quickly, slightly extend the storage time, buy ordinary sealing machine less than 100 yuan, is a relatively convenient choice.

Another way is to buy a higher-specification container, such as an ANKOMN sealed tank, which has a convenient wheel for manual evacuation, which will be more convenient to take out. In the online shopping platform to find vacuum equipment tank is also a lot, but a penny of goods A, the difference in box durability, vacuum effect, sealing cover rubber braid thickness, can make the container of food, tea to minimize oxygen contact, if you buy cheap sealed tank, but there is no seal to eliminate oxygen, moisture substantive effect, but is a waste of money to buy a more expensive box, it is better to buy a glass culture dish.
