UV coating is legit, right?
sometimes you can get chinked on the size of lens on chinese sunglasses so be careful for that
yea UV is legit
not bad <:thonk:288060975775612929>
I can't find the golden needle tea
most sunglasses, even chink ones, got uv coating
I own two pairs of these
pretty much my daily drinker right now
Dog bless
before my other puer cakes get here
do you store it in stainless steal container or what it comes in?
I just store it in the wrapper
air is good for puer
just store it away from light
What should I buy with the tea? Should I buy myself one of those tea pots?
get one of these glass teapots or ceramic gaiwans they sell, I'd say
how long does 1 cake last?
I use 7g each time for 130ml, so 100 / 7 so about 14 days
that's a 100g cake on ys
nice
for brewing, I start out with 15 seconds for the first infusion, adding 5 seconds each infusion
?
what do you mean?
I'm no tea expert
gongfu brewing method
instead of just infusing it in water for a couple of minutes, in gongfu, you use more tea leaves than you usually would but you infuse it for a short amount of time
wow that seems like a lot of work tbh
have you noticed a difference between the taste of regular infusion vs gongfu ?
gongfu is definitely better for noticing taste notes
the tea gradually changes with each infusion, rather than dumping all its notes into one cup
how long does it take you to brew 1 cup?
The actual steeping time or the preparation too?
all together
About a minute (give or take) to get everything out and weigh the tea while the water is boiling and 15 seconds to brew the first cup
