[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I did the thing. Loose tea. Warmed the pot. No milk this time and touch of sugar. Wasn't strong enough. Next mission. Go get FRESH loose tea. Probably something Irish Breakfast or Barry's.

Also, I have learned that I do drink coffee after it gets cold. I have become accustomed. But my tea goes cold so quick and it's over. I guess I have too many distractions in the AM and I need to just DRINK THE TEA while it is hot.

wish me luck. When it is good, it is so good, right?[/quote]

Tea shouldn’t get cold faster than coffee. In fact the opposite- tea is made with boiling water, and coffee isn’t (or at least in my coffee maker, the water is clearly not at a rolling boil). I love both coffee and tea and drink lots of both, and I can tell you that most teas aren’t good when they’re cool/room temperature. At least in my opinion, tea has to be either really hot or cold/iced, no in between (although I’m sure many will disagree).

If your tea isn’t strong enough, then it’s either old and/or you’re not steeping it long enough. And finally, if you’re accustomed to very strong coffee flavors, most teas aren’t going to be as strong. It’s just a different flavor profile. [/quote]
