Tieguanyin tea brewing method demonstration

Take an appropriate amount of tea leaves (usually 8 grams per cup of tea) and place it in a covered bowl, then brew it with boiling water.

Use the lid to scrape off the foam.

Quickly pour the tea into a fair cup. Place a strainer on the fairness cup to filter out broken tea leaves. Since this first cup of tea is mainly used to wash the tea and not to drink, it is better to brew it quickly.

Rinse the strainer and teacup with the first cup of tea from the fairness cup.

After washing the cup, brew the second cup of tea with boiling water and cover it with a lid.

The second cup of tea usually takes 15 seconds to brew and is then poured into a fairness cup. You can make slight adjustments based on personal preference. If you think it’s too light, you can extend it a little bit; if you think it’s too dark, you can shorten it a little bit.

Pour the tea in the fairness cup into the teacup and drink.

After savoring the flavor of Guanyin, remove the lid of the bowl and brew the next cup of tea.

one. Features : Simple props, free brewing methods, very suitable for the public to drink.

two. Brewing steps : Scald the pot: Pour boiling water into the pot until it is full. Pour water: Pour the water in the pot into the tea boat. Placing tea: This is a more sophisticated way of placing tea. Place a tea funnel at the mouth of the pot, and then use a teaspoon to push the tea into the pot. Filling water: Pour the boiled water into the pot until the foam overflows from the mouth of the pot.

Pouring tea : 1. First, lift the pot and circle it counterclockwise along the edge of the tea boat, with the intention of scraping off the water drops on the bottom of the pot. This is commonly known as "Guan Gong Patrolling the City" (because the pots are generally red, and are steaming hot when they are just taken out of the tea pond, just like Guan Gong, majestic and awe-inspiring, patrolling the city with his troops). Pay attention to the direction when grinding the pot. If you hold the pot in your right hand, grind it in a counterclockwise direction when welcoming guests to drink tea, and grind it in a clockwise direction when seeing off guests. If you hold the pot in your left hand, do the opposite.

2. Pouring the tea in the pot into the fairness cup can make the tea soup even.

3. Another way to distribute tea evenly is to use a teapot to pour tea into several cups in turn. When the tea is almost finished, pour the remaining tea into each cup. This is commonly known as "Han Xin Inspecting the Troops". When pouring tea, be careful not to fill a cup all at once; it is better to fill it about 70% full.

Divide the tea: Pour the tea into the teacup, about 70% full. Tea serving: You can drink freely or someone will serve you tea. Remove the tea residue: Use a residue spoon to remove the tea residue in the pot. For later use: After the guests leave, wash the cups and pots for next use.
