so far? the golden needle, jin xuan, and some alishan I've so far been unable to ID on the internet
and some taiwanese tieguanyin
tried any white teas?
not yet but I might get some in my next big yunnan haul
nice
man I want to get into this whole tea thing
150ml feels a bit small to me
I'd get the 200ml version
ok
that way, you can still brew like 130ml of tea and the leaves still have room to grow
oolong leaves get pretty big
I see
anything else I would need?
only things you definitely need are the teapot and scale
maybe a $1 chink timer from ali
that's what I have
alright
is glassware safe to buy from china?
I've bought ceramic and glass stuff from china and the chinks seem to package it pretty well
so
pretty low I'd reckon
off of Ali?
yeah ali
do you have a cool cup?
i wish
I'm using a plain white cup, does the job
ali chinks have tea cups but they're pretty small
yea I've been looking on ali
I feel like if i make a pot of tea i would want a smaller cup because it would keep me drinking
any 200ml cup should be fine imo
yeah smaller cup, that's what I mean
I like the stainless look
no 200, but 150 and 180
I heard metal makes things taste weird
I sort of noticed it with coffee
hmm, interesting, guess i never tried
might just have been a nocebo though
