Selected brewing method
Western Brewing
Western brewing uses a larger vessel (typically 350–500 ml) and a much lower leaf-to-water ratio (2–3 g per 200 ml) for a single, longer steep of 2–4 minutes. The result is a more dilute, milder cup, suited to casual drinking and to teas with broad, forgiving flavour profiles.
