Pu-erh Tea Processing
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 бер 2017
- Pu-erh tea processing is made in four steps: withering, kill-green, rolling and sun-drying. We follow a batch of tea leaves from natural tea gardens during the whole process and monitor its water content at each step. You'll be surprised by the results!
We shot this video in our tea factory in Jingmai Mountain in March 2017, during the early Spring harvest. Presented by William, filmed by Yubai.

such an articulate farmer. makes me want to quit my day job and start a tea farming operation! 😅😅
1. Harvest
2. Weathering for 5-6 hrs
3. Steam the leaves by rolling and turning over continously in the wok non srop doe use low heat for 20 mins.
4. Spread the leaves to steam off
5. Roll the leaves by hand gently for 20 mins or until rolled.
6. Spread the leaves overnight to completely finish off the moisture and clear oxidation
7. Spread under the sun for 12hrs until dry and crispy
8. Store in a dry place
This is the best explanation of how to make proper Puerh. Thank you so much for making this!
Hopefully this technology will never be lost.
Wow! This was such a treat to watch! As a tea lover this was beyond interesting. Thank you!
Great video, I learnt alot from it ,thanks ❤
I have watched this video again and again and still love it. It looks simple, but I think to know the right timing is an art. Thanks William and Yu Bai ^^
Wow you guys really spoiled us this time. Thank you very much for showing the whole processing of making my beloved loose raw pu'er tea. All of the very best to you all.
So fascinating. Thank you for sharing the process of making tea with us!
Thank you!

Wow! What a fascinating process! You very very concise and explained everything very well! It’s nice to see an artisan at work!
I'm learning so much from your videos. Thank you.
That was VERY interesting. And, I admire the amount of work you put into withering the tea. Just watching it made my arms start to ache! It makes me wonder how the first tea came into being! How did they ever come up with this complex process in order to create a liquid beverage that we love so much! Ancient peoples were remarkable in their creativity. I will never take my cup of tea for granted, again. Your presentation and explanations were excellent. Thank you.
beautiful video. The way you approached the tea world is also very interesting. It is not easy to find a manufacturer like you that sells and shows the production process. It's great to see how what you buy is created. compliments.
You are amazing. You really did a very good job of teaching. I appreciate your detailed explanation.
Amazing chap. You explain, the processes so well . I am glad to have watched the video, and thanks for sharing it.
Absolutely Amazing! Thanks for making and shaking this.
Very explicit and clear. What a lot of dedication. Now we know more why Farmerleaf tea is so great.
Very informative. Very instructive.
Also, through the raw style of shooting and minimal editing, I get a sense of visiting your beautiful place. Many thanks. Greetings from the Netherlands, Europe.
Thank you for the effort showing us every step of this process! :)
Fantastic......
The way you explained about the process & the way you carried out the entire process was very clear..
Very informative video.
I never praise anyone easily, but you deserve my appreciation.
Well done..... God bless you.
This is such a great video. Not only is the step-by-step processing a great learning experience, but also, your discussion of "redness" versus "greenness" in processed puerh is quite enlightening, and sheds light on why certain puerh in my collection has the flavor and aroma that it does (of course beyond the many other factors at play, e.g. terroir). It is also great vocabulary that can be used to further describe puerh tea. In your personal opinion, would you prioritize drinking redder teas when they're younger due to the potential of unpleasant aging? Perhaps this prioritization is more relevant to those of us with relatively small collections of tea (
So detailed! Thank you so much for the excellent presentation!
Splendid video! Thank you for taking us through the whole process so well. Hope I will be able to savour Pu-erh Tea some day.
This is wonderful! Thank you for sharing your craft!

Wow, you rock!!! Thank you for showing this process. You explained it well and it is now clearer in my mind.

Great content
That is an excellent job you've done. Beautifully explained. Would you have a similar video of Oolong manufacture?
Wow!
Thak You
Very good and informative! Thank you for sharing this, it really tickles the tea nerd in me! ^^
I saw on your website it looks like you don't use chemical pesticides and fertilizers. Do you stick to clean farming or does it happen that not so nice chemicals are used in your tea farm and farms around you?

Very good
Thank you so much for this interesting and informative video! I am trying to make tea at home with various plants-basically I'm trying to apply the "craft" of tea to various leaves around me. Is there another way to roll the leaves without a machine? Will rolling by hand work? And will you talk about the storage of the finished tea leaves -what is the proper way to store and age tea? Thank you.
Very good and educative. Can I take the 'youtube' and place it as an essential educational matter. Please reply.
Again thanks.
Do u wash the leaves? I ve seen another video where the tea was 1st soaked in a warm water.
You were brilliant. Thank You.
Also can you make a video of how to make green tea...the video is very elaborate & educative...thanks & good job...👍🏻
We don't make green tea in Jingmai, i am not qualified enough to show that processing.
Can I do this process in a wok in the kitchen? Thank's for a great video
Brilliant. Well done. Where’s the website for placing orders? Regardless, I greatly appreciate the education.

Thank you!
❤❤❤❤❤
Kan die tee geoes word en die ouderdom van die struik een jaar is ... en waarom .....?
I live in Siberia and i have no fresh tea leaves so i may use raspberry leaves and some local wild plants
Hello William - thank you for making these wonderful videos. I'm curious: if you apply these tea production methods to the leaves of other plants (i.e., NOT camellia sinesis), can you get anything interesting or useful, or does it only work with tea?
I know people tried applying similar methods to a herb called "ivan chai" and got interesting results.
Hello, great video, so much knowledge. I've been trying to find the chinese word for pan-frying (or kiln-burn process as you called it), but I am not able to. It sounds like "Sha Ting". Thank you
Thank you! The kill-green process is called Sha Qing 杀青:
@@farmerleaf61 Once I put it in Google, it found your 5 years old video. I am sorry for bothering. Your channel is a tresure. Thank you so much, be well.
Why is it important to let the tea oxidize over the years. What's the difference if you just let it oxidize faster during the processing?
Great presentation, thanks. It demonstrates the richness in the traditions of making this type of tea. Question; what is the approximate temperature at the kill-green pan?
thank you for watching, we start the sha qing at around 250 degree Celsius at the bottom of the wok and once the leaves are in the wok, it drops at about 150-200. We generally finish the session at 120-150.
@@farmerleaf61 is there a simple way to understand that pan is warm enough? I want to give a shot with some leaves thay I have collected, but unfortunately have no way to mesure if the temperature of my pan is ok or not. Btw, thanks for the video!
Of the 3.5KG finished tea, how much of those yellow leaves will be sorted out (approximately)...?
In early Spring, you typically get 2-10% yellow flakes, in autumn, it can go as high as 50%! It depends a lot in the coarseness of the raw material and to a lesser extent on processing.
sir, what is the tempesure when u first firing the fresh weathering leaves.
So is this green tea atlast?
At 16:40 it looks like he's gonna roll a massive joint
hi there, thank you for sharing this information in the video. i just dehydrate parsley to be used as a spices, but from a 7kg batch the end result is only as low as 500 grams :( . is there any way that i can do to increase the weight of my dehydrated herbs? Thank you!
How about making green tea? Do we need to withering the tea leaves? And what is the temperature of doing shaqing? And how to do next?
Thank you so much
Love the channel! How do I purchase pu erh from you?
