Brewing Guide
Please brew tea however you’d like or experiment. Below are general brewing instructions:
Below, I am suggesting using the entire mini cake in your brewing in either gong fu or western brewing. Especially in the gong fu brew, this will produce a strong brew. If you would prefer to try it with a little less strength, you could break the cake in half.
Gong fu brew (gaiwan or small teapot)
150ml or similar size
1 piece/cake per vessel
90C-100C
1st brew (rinse/open up cake): 20 seconds + 10-20 secs for additional brews
can be brewed multiple times
Western brew (mug/teapot)
350 ml or similar size
1 piece/cake per vessel
90C-100C
2 minutes + 1 minute for additional brews
