Brewing tea with a tea bag?
after pouring the hot water into a cup how many times do you dunk the tea bag and why
Answers:
The best method to make hot tea with a tea bag is to warm your cup with warm water. Set the tea bag in the cup and pour boiling water over it (the water should actually be at a real, rapid boil.) Brew 3-5 minutes depending on how strong you want it. Remove the tea bag - no need for dunking or squeezing.
I think the most important things are to make sure the water is really boiling and to not leave the bag to steep for too long (it'll make the cup bitter.)
I just put the bag into the hot water an leave it until it's about the color I want.
It depends greatly on the type of tea. Some teas turn bitter if you leave the bag in for too long, but in the case of other teas, the flavor and healthy compounds don't fully come out for 10 minutes or more.
leave the tea bag in your cup of hot water,till it looks the right colour you want, about five minutes I'll say,dunk & count the number of times seems too much effort for a cup of tea ,one attempt should give you the time required.,for a cup that truly cheers.
