- 1. Loose leaf Japanese green tea, done nice!
- 2. Disclaimer! Please note, these are instructions for steeping most loose leaf Japanese sencha and kabusecha teas. For Gyokuro, these instructions are not relevant at all. Even genmaicha (popped rice blend) and houjicha (roasted) will require slightly different conditions.
- 3. Boil 400ml (13.5oz) of fresh water for a smaller pot do 200ml (6.75oz)
- 4. Pour boiled water into a container for cooling For sencha cool to 70º-80ºC (158º-175ºF) For genmaicha and houjicha, a few degrees off the boil
- 5. Put leaves into a heated preparation pot For a large pot (400ml) use about 16g. Use 8g for the smaller pot (200ml) Pro tip! Adjust the amount of leaves according to your strength preference... don’t steep it longer to make it stronger!
- 6. Pour 70º- 80º water onto the leaves For most Japanese green teas, steep for 1 minute (some houjichas might need a few seconds less)
- 7. Decant your freshly steeped tea into a serving pot Make sure you get every last drop out!!!
