What's /int/'s favorite kind of tea? I'm very partial to Darjeeling, Ntingwe Kwazulu, and good quality Sencha

A lot of people in New Zealand do this.

But shits upside down here. Fire is coloured blue and goes down. Water freezes above zero degrees. You use dynamite to build buildings. We eat in the bathrooms and shit on tables. Our cars go faster in reverse. And we don't investigate air accidents.

Also fuck people who put milk in before tea. What are you at, scobes.

I just finished drinking some Indian chai. I'm pretty new to tea, I was more of a coffee dude but now I'm seduced and next time I go shopping I'm probably going to buy various different types.

How do you guys make it though? Pic related comes with tea bags, am I a peasant?

my teapots always cool down too quickly, I get at most two or three cups from one. How can I keep one warm without a gay teacosy?

Tea bags are fine. Anyone who says otherwise is a hipster cunt.

Best way to chai is with a bit of milk and sugar. Yeah it will taste a bit better if you use leaf and spices instead of a bag but who can be bothered to do that?

Tea bags are super convenient, but it is nice to have a teapot/strainer. You can get much higher quality teas. It's like moving up from preground to grinding yourself.

Do you guys add milk afterwards or at the beginning before boiling?

>>50021090
I was actually willing to make chai from scratch but then the frustration in finding the ingredients locally got the best of me. Maybe I'll give it a shot again.

Milk goes in after the hot water has gone in and the teabag is out.

Mate if you want some good loose leaf check out Canton Tea Co. There black teas are choice. Not too cheap but not too expensive either.

A simple chai to make is with cardamom alone. You make your black tea, add milk and sugar, and heat it up in a sauce pan with several cardamom pods. Very tasty.

thanks lads
one more thing about the tea bags: is there any indication about how long you should keep it in water in order to get the best of it? I don't want to remove it too soon and lose some power.

Depends on the tea and how you like it.

If you buy a new brand you'll have to make a couple of brews to get your preffered timing.

If it's too strong for you than reduce the time and if to watery keep it there longer. Over time you will pinpoint it.

It's just preference. More time in the water = stronger taste. You will get diminishing returns though, and if you brew too long it will end up bitter and unpleasant. General brewing time is 1.5-4 minutes depending on the type of tea. For Chai I'd try 2 and a half, then adjust off that for next time.

Don't brew longer than 5 minutes or it will get very bitter. Green tea I usually brew for 2 minutes. Black tea 3 minutes.
