Water temperature itself is something you’ll probably want to start out gauging with a thermometer, but, over time, you’ll learn to recognize signs, such as bubbles, sounds, vapor, etc., which are all indications of how hot the water is.

The most important thing to remember in all this, and the best advice we feel we have to offer about tea preparation, is that the best way to make tea is the way it tastes best to you.

For more specific information you can browse this website reading write-ups and brewing instructions for each individual tea and see reference pictures showing the color of the infusion in the cup.

We wish you success in your practice of what the Chinese call the way of tea.
