    I’ve always just made my green tea with the stove top kettle/boiling water. I liked it, but it was bitter. Then I got an electric kettle where I could control the temp of the water, and wow - what a difference. I’ve been drinking Rishi super matcha, mix of matcha and I think konacha, though it is a bag tea. Looking forward to trying more of the loose green teas I have.

    • @Nioteas

    As an advent tea drinker, some cups I've made it just felt like it was either I drank too much or too little. I know when it comes to tea, people ask, "How can it be too little or too much?" But, I try to tell them, it's not how much is consumed, but whither if you're brewing it right.

    Hi! I just started drinking tea and got a Gyokuro to try out. Used the ratios this video suggests and brewed 3 infusions, didn't recall correctly so brewed at 70 degrees.
    After some time I got caffeine high? I don't know but spent the afternoon with anxiety and what not. Is this normal? Should I start with a low caffeine tea first before getting into something like Gyokuro? thanks!

    • @Nioteas
      @Nioteas  2 роки тому +2

      yes this is a high caffeine tea with about as much caffeine as a cup of coffee. The theanine seems to help most people avoid this jittery or anxious feeling, but it is possible to still have too much. I guess you should start out with a lower caffeine tea. The Karigane Sakamoto is good because it has a similar flavor with much less caffeine

      you can do a 2nd and 3rd infusion with all high quality teas I can think of (of course teabags don't count as they are low quality and designed to infuse quickly) but some teas can be infused many more times that that

  • @MagusPrimeX
    @MagusPrimeX Рік тому +1

    I have a question that I feel silly to ask because I think I'm missing something really basic. I'm used to brewing black English teas at home 1 cup at a time, so with my electric kettle it's a straight forward process of almost always 1 tsp of leaves into a strainer and after heating the cup I just add the strainer and fill the whole cup with water, wait, remove, and drink directly.
    I want to try making some of these Japanese green teas as well and the directions are more drastically different in ratio then I expected, like 210mL to 2 Tbsp of leaves. How do you measure the water you use when brewing like this? Usually I hear over a liter in the electric kettle and fill the cup, but no way it does a quantity as small as .2L. Do you actually pour into a glass measuring cup first and then the pot? I think I'm missing something basic.

    • @Nioteas
      @Nioteas  Рік тому

      after awhile I just start to eyeball it, it doesn't need to be completely exact. You can start with half a cup
