Gaiwan or Zisha Teapot

The recommended tea-to-water ratio is 1 gram of tea for every 25 milliliters of water. For steeping, start with 5 seconds for the first four infusions (5s / 5s / 5s / 5s) and gradually increase the time from the fifth infusion onward (10 seconds, then longer as desired).

Thermos

This method produces a concentrated broth while maintaining heat and aroma. Using a Thermos teapot or Thermos teacup at a tea-to-water ratio of 1:200 (for example, 4 grams of tea to 800 milliliters of water). Place the tea leaves in the stainless steel filter. Pour boiling water (212°F or 100°C ) into the teapot. Close the lid tightly and let the tea steep for one hour to allow the flavors to fully develop.
