Hi  In today's episode of "Tea-Talk", you'll know all about the 3 Ts: Temperature, Taste, and Timing. And we are ready to spill the tea. Come, read along?!   Temperature NO! You do not need a thermometer, but it all starts with the water temperature. It is essential because boiling is responsible for oxygenating the tea, which brings out both the fragrance and the flavors. A vigorous boil might result in an over-steeped bitter cup of tea whereas half-boiled water will give your flat flavors. Science says a gentle boil will provide it with enough oxygen to bring out the perfect tasting notes. To simplify, we'll quote a study that goes like this, "For delicate green and herbal teas, stop boiling when the bubbles are the size of crab eyes.". If you're boiling oolong, wait until the bubbles are the size of fish eyes. To infuse black tea, wait for the rolling boil of the dragon eyes." Easy and fun, right?  [Scroll further for the exact temperatures.]   Taste Now that you have learned the art of brewing, the careful play of oxidation is what really determines the flavor profile and the type. For starters, black tea, when brewed at 200-212 degrees, will give you malty and smoky notes that are earthy, nutty, caramel-like, and fruity. Your cup of green tea should taste grassy and pan-fired with sweet vegetal notes, reminiscent of steamed greens when brewed at 175-180 degrees. The delicate white teas boast floral, grassy, and honey-like notes reminiscent of apricot or vanilla. Brew it just like any of your green teas.
