Anleitung Zusammenfassung
The Taylor® Tea Thermometer/Timer not only has the seven preset temperatures with steeping times, but the unit can also be set to your own steeping temperature and brewing time, so if you do not wish to use the presets, please feel free to adjust to your own taste. The seven kinds of tea included are just a good starting point for the many varieties of tea available. According to some sources, there exist over 2,100 varieties of the tea plant (Camelia Sinensis), and there are also countless herbal blends that contain no tea but are rich in other plants, including hibiscus, jasmine, hawthorn, and chamomile. Counting in the myriad of tea blends, tea-herbal combinations, tea-fruit-spicenut mixes, and the possibilities are endless. So you may want to experiment and use different temperatures and times until your brewed cup or pot of tea is perfect for you! So sit back and relax with a perfect cup of tea! Included in these instructions is a space to keep records of your own tea brewing times and temperatures. There are seven factors that affect the quality of brewed tea: . The quality of the tea . The quality of the water . Correct measurement . Correct steeping time . Allowing the tea leaf to fully expand . Separating the leaf from the liquid at the end of the steeping process The unit can be used for both pouched/bagged or loose tea leaves. So sit back, relax and make yourself a perfect cup of tea!
