HOW TO BREW

  1. Measure 3-5g of tea leaves using a scale, or measure 2 tablespoons. Place the leaves on a clean, dry dish.
  2. Pre-warm the teapot by pouring hot water into it, then discard the water.
  3. Add the measured tea leaves into the center of the pre-warmed teapot.
  4. Boil water to 100°C.
  5. For green tea: Cool 200ml of water to 80°C (about 1 minute).
    For red tea: Use water at 90°C.
  6. Pour the cooled water from the chahai into the teapot over the tea leaves. Let the tea steep for 1 minute.
  7. Decant the brewed tea into the chahai to separate the tea leaves from the liquor. Alternatively, divide the tea directly into cups.
  8. Serve the tea while it’s hot, savoring the harmonious blend of flavors.
  9. Reinfuse the same tea leaves up to three times:
    2nd infusion: Steep for 30 seconds.
    3rd infusion: Steep for 1 to 1.5 minutes.
  10. Repeat the infusion steps to enjoy subsequent brews, adjusting steeping times to your preference.
