Family tea process and skills! What needs attention

Tea is a culture that has existed in China since ancient times. Many people like to invite friends to make a pot of tea and enjoy a good time quietly when they are free. However, there are many stresses on tea tasting. Let's learn about the process and skills of family tea art

Prepare relevant tea sets:

(1) Teapot (purple clay pot and porcelain pot can be used, and purple clay pot is the best for making Pu'er tea);

(2) A few tea cups (just enough. In addition, the tea cup should be made of porcelain to facilitate the observation of the color of the tea soup);

(3) Tea pot (a pot used to hold tea);

(4) A tea towel;

(5) A set of teaspoons;

(6) Boiling kettle;

(7) Fair cup;

(8) Water bowl;

(9) Enjoy the tea plate.

Place the relevant tea sets on the tea table or table, arrange the positions, and then start making tea.

In fact, the above things do not need to be fully prepared, which can meet the most basic brewing. Make your own preparations.

Warm the kettle and wash the tea set:

After arranging the tea sets, you can start warming the pot.

First, the function of the warm pot is to improve the temperature of the pot body and the continuous temperature ability of the pot, so that the tea will be full of charm. Second, clean and sanitary; Third, show respect for guests.

Specific operation: rinse the teapot, fair cup and teacup with boiling water in turn; Or put the tea cup in a vessel with boiling water or scald or boil it.

If a friend brings his own tea cup, it's best. If a friend uses his own cup, this step can be omitted, which should depend on the situation.

Note: when washing the purple clay pot, there is a certain stress. The hot water should slide slowly along the pot body. If you are interested, you can take a special look at the knowledge about the use and maintenance of the purple clay pot.

Tea appreciation:

Take out the prepared tea from the tea pot and put it into the tea appreciation plate.

First, it is convenient for everyone to enjoy the appearance and smell of tea;

Second, to facilitate access.

Note: just an appropriate amount, not too much.

Put tea into the pot:

Gently pull the tea into the purple clay pot (or teapot of other materials) with a teaspoon, and the input amount is generally 6-8g.

Note: if you are not sure, you might as well take 6-8g as the standard, or prepare a spring scale to weigh tea to measure the weight of tea. How to choose 6-8g depends on your or friends' taste. If you like strong tea, you can put more, and if you like light tea, you can put less.

Tea washing:

Public opinions are divergent. The experts say that the first bubble tea is the essence of the tea. Every one of them has their own views. They can only follow their own views. The following instructions are just for your reference, or you can skip this step.

Specific operation:

Pour boiling water into the teapot that has placed tea leaves. Do not take too long. Pour out the tea soup in the pot.

First, if we don't drink the tea soup, we can also use it to warm the fair cup. First, we can raise the temperature of the fair cup, and second, we can clean the fair cup again.

Note: the amount of boiling water injected should not be too much, preferably half a pot.

Brewing:

After washing the tea, you can start the second bubble. Inject boiling water and soak it for 20 to 40 seconds to pour out the tea soup.

If it is not easy for you to grasp this soaking process, you can reduce the amount of tea when adding tea, and then appropriately increase the time for making tea, and then slowly feel the changes of tea soup. In short, you can find out the way by soaking more and experiencing more.

Back to the point, when pouring out the tea soup in the second bubble, if the tea aroma and color are very good, it means that the bubble is good. When pouring out the soup, leave a little tea bottom at the bottom of the pot to add taste to the next bubble; If you can smell the tea aroma mixed with other peculiar smell, such as astringency and sour taste, when the second bubble comes out of the soup, leave the pot open for a while. When the pot body is about the indoor temperature, cover the lid and stand for a while. When the third bubble starts, slightly lengthen the soaking time

In this way, soak until the taste and color of the soup become obviously lighter, indicating that it is the last bubble, so don't soak again.

Tea Distribution:

No matter how many times you make tea, pour the tea into a reasonable cup and evenly distribute it to each small cup.

Note: when giving each cup, pay attention to the quantity. If the fair cup is just finished when pouring the last cup of tea, and the quantity of each cup is the same, it is the best. The fair cup is to host the fair big cup. In addition, when pouring tea to friends, it's good to fill it at seven points. Don't fill it. In our Chinese culture, we think that pouring a full cup to guests means seeing them off.

serve tea:

This step can also be omitted. The so-called serving tea is to put the divided tea on the saucer and serve it to the opposite guests.

I think if the relationship is close, I can make some adjustments according to my own situation.

Tea set:

Tea sets are generally collected in cloth bags or other storage boxes according to the original style after the guests leave, or after washing, drying or wiping, they are collected in bags, stored and used next time.
