[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they taste like grass/bitter, you were using water that is too hot and steeping for too long. You don’t steep as hot or long as black tea. [/quote] +1 My pandemic thing was getting in tea in a huge way - I bought a programmable electric tea kettle and learned I'd been overcooking tea for years. Also, don't ever squeeze the bag (if you even use a bag, loose leaf in a filter is better by far) because that's squeezing the bitter tannins back into the tea. The proper temperature for the right kind of tea is essential - green and white should never be brewed in boiling water as you would use for black and herbal. Even oolong should be brewed in cooler than boiling water - otherwise they burn and taste bitter.[/quote]
