basic skill

Light: It means to handle the tea set lightly, which not only shows the tea man's love for the tea set, but also reflects the personal cultivation of the tea artist.

Accuracy: it means that the tea set should be taken out and put back accurately, which tea set to take, the eyes and hands should be in place accurately, and there should be no purpose.

Water control

water temperature

The choice of water temperature varies with tea. The thinner the tea, the lower the water temperature, the stronger the tea, and the higher the old water temperature.

The temperature of tea is an important factor affecting the quality of tea soup. When the water temperature is too low, the flavor components of tea fragrance are not easy to overflow fully; If the water temperature is too high, especially if it is stuffy, it is easy to cause the soup color of green tea and the dark yellow at the bottom of leaves. However, the fresh fragrance of tea soup will be destroyed if it takes too long to make tea with boiling water.

Delicate and advanced green tea should be brewed with boiled water with a water temperature of about 85 degrees. Generally, green tea can be brewed with boiling water above 90 degrees.

Scented tea should be brewed with boiling water above 95 degrees.

Oolong tea, Pu 'er tea, black tea, etc. You can brew it with boiling water and drink it at any time.

The pressed tea with coarse and old raw materials needs boiling method to fully extract the effective components in tea and keep the fresh and refreshing feeling of tea.

Regarding the mastery of "waiting for soup" when boiling water, it is best to make tea after the "crab eye" bubble appears on the water surface and when the "fish eye" bubble is just generated. At the same time, when boiling water, we should pay attention to "burning with fierce fire" and avoid "cooking with slow fire for a long time".

at present

The coarseness, thinness, rapidity and slowness of water flow, the nature of water collection and the continuity of waterline are all caused by the change of wrist in the process of carrying pot.

Master the ratio of tea to tea.

If the proportion of tea leaves is too small (too much water), the taste of tea soup will be light and fragrant; If the ratio of tea to water is too large (less water), the tea soup is too thick and bitter, and the effective components of tea extract can not be fully utilized.

Master the soaking time of tea.

If the brewing time of tea soup is too long, the tea polyphenols and aromatic substances in tea will automatically oxidize, reducing the color, aroma and taste of tea soup; Vitamin C and amino acids in tea will also be reduced due to oxidation, which will reduce the nutritional value of tea soup.

Generally, green tea and scented tea should be brewed for about five minutes; The first brewing time of oolong tea is about one minute, and the second brewing time is extended each time, so that the tea soup will not be strong first and then weak, and it will be fragrant after seven brewing.

Master the order of throwing tea when making tea.

Put tea leaves first, and then pour them into boiling water, which is called "drop method"; Pour about one-third of the boiling water into the cup, then add the tea leaves, soak them for a certain time, and then fill them with water, which is called "investment method"; Fill the cup with boiling water before putting the tea. This is called "throwing method". Different tea varieties should have different tea throwing methods because of their similarities and differences in appearance, texture, specific gravity, quality and component leaching rate.

Master the number of times to make tea

According to the determination, the total water extract of scented tea and green tea soup is 50%; Second, the tea-making soup contains130% of the total amount of substances soaked in water; 65438 00% of the total extract of Sanpaoshui; The four foams are only 1-3%. Therefore, scented tea and green tea should be brewed three times.

Green tea can only be fragrant after being brewed for seven times because of the ratio of raw materials to tea.

Etiquette code for tea artists
