Steeping Guidelines

Gaiwan or Zisha Teapot
Both Gaiwan and Zisha Teapot are perfect for appreciating the tea’s aroma and flavor through multiple infusions. Use water at 212°F (100°C) to extract the full flavor and aroma. The recommended tea-to-water ratio is 1 gram of tea for every 25 milliliters of water. For steeping, start with 5 seconds for the first four infusions (5s / 5s / 5s / 5s) and gradually increase the time from the fifth infusion onward (10 seconds, then longer as desired).

Thermos:
This method produces a concentrated broth while maintaining heat and aroma. Using a Thermos teapot or Thermos teacup at a tea to water ratio of 1:200 (for example, 4 grams of tea to 800 milliliter of water). Place the tea leaves in the stainless steel filter. Pour boiling water (212°F or 100°C ) into the teapot. Close the lid tightly and let the tea steep for one hour to allow the flavors to fully develop. After an hour, pour the tea into cups and enjoy the rich, mellow taste. Can immersed multiple times.
