Information on making tea
Tea is not just tea. Strictly speaking, tea is
only a water infusion of the tea plant ca-
mellia sinensis. This infusion can be black
or green tea. A distinction must be made
between this and tea-like products such as
the so-called herbal and fruit teas.
Therefore, brewing tea is not always just
brewing tea. In order to preserve valu-
able ingredients and the taste, teas are
brewed with water at different tempera-
tures and allowed to steep for different
lengths of time. For example, green tea
is preferably brewed with water heated to
approx. 65 °C. In every case, the brewing
instructions on the packaging should be
observed.

To brew black tea, proceed as follows:
Black tea
Fill the water tank with water.
Fill the teapot with tea leaves (approx.
one teaspoon per cup) or tea bags
(1 tea bag for approx. 1 – 2 cups).
Close the lid of the water tank and
subsequently put the teapot on top of
it. The teapot is then warmed up at
the same time.
Boil the water in the water tank (see
section Heating water, page 22).
Take the teapot off the water tank.
NOTE
►
Condensation may drip off the bot-
tom of the teapot.
Pour boiling water from the water tank
over the tea.
NOTE
►
The more tea leaves or tea bags and
the less water you fill into the teapot,
the stronger the tea concentrate will
be (professionals enjoy an infusion
with approx. 3 g tea for 200 ml of
water). It is preferable to use slightly
more tea so that a real concentrate
is produced in the teapot.
