Three main factors to pay attention to when making tea! Tea temperature should generally be how many degrees for how long the best bubble

In fact, many people will worry about not knowing how to make tea. Even though I have tried tea when I bought tea outside, I think it tastes good and I only buy it because of my favorite taste, but when I get home to brew it myself, I find that I can't always taste it. To solve this problem is actually very easy, first of all to understand clearly, the three factors that affect the taste of tea: the proportion of tea, water temperature and soaking time. # 1: the first thing to master the tea-water ratio is the tea-water ratio. Different sizes of capping bowls or purple sand pots will result in different amounts of tea. Assuming that the capacity, water temperature and soup time of the tea containers are the same, if the amount of tea is too small, the taste of the tea will be lighter; on the contrary, if there is too much tea, the taste of the tea will be too strong. Therefore, the capacity of tea utensils and the amount of tea have a very close relationship, the two cooperate properly in order to brew the best flavor of tea. The cover bowl capacity of tea made by editors is 120cc, and the amount of tea used in different kinds of tea is slightly different. If you soak oolong, it is recommended to buy about 7 grams of tea. If you brew black or white tea, the proportion of tea can be reduced to 5 grams, and green tea can even be reduced to 3G. You can make reference to this ratio and measure the amount of tea you buy when making tea according to your own taste and the size of the tea vessels at home.

# 2: understand the brewing water temperature, secondly, the water temperature used to make tea is also a major factor that directly affects the taste of tea. Caffeine, tea polyphenols and theanine acid in tea dominate the taste of tea soup. The release of caffeine is the source of bitter taste of tea soup. The release of tea polyphenols will make tea soup astringent. Theanine acid can give tea soup a sweet taste. Some experiments have shown that if the water temperature is higher, the more caffeine and tea polyphenols will be released, and theanine acid can be released smoothly no matter at high or low temperature; in other words, if you brew tea in boiling water of 100 degrees Celsius, the tea will be more bitter and astringent. On the contrary, if you brew tea at a lower water temperature, the tea will be more fresh and sweet. This is why cold tea is sweeter and less bitter than hot tea. # 3: pay attention to the soaking time at last, the soaking time will also make the tea thicker or lighter. If the tea is brewed in 100 degrees boiling water and soaked for too long, the more caffeine and tea polyphenols will be released, and the tea will easily become bitter and astringent, even completely overshadowing the sweet taste of the tea, which will be difficult to taste. On the contrary, if the temperature of the tea is too low and the soaking time is short, the tea has only the sweetness of theanine acid and does not have the sweet taste of the tea, so that the taste of the tea will appear too weak, or the so-called "water taste" will appear. In addition to making tea at the wake-up tea meeting, the first soak will soak for about 15-30 seconds, depending on the individual's taste, and the second can be soaked for 30-45 seconds, and so on. With the increase of tea-making experience, the easier it is to master, as long as the proportion, temperature and time are well coordinated, the problem of bitterness or light taste can be avoided. These are the three elements that need to be paid attention to when brewing tea. Making tea itself is a changeable thing, and occasional misses are really normal. After reading this article, I hope it can help novice tea lovers to make a good cup of tea more easily.
