Common questions

Do I need a temperature-controlled kettle for tea?

For green, white and many oolong teas, yes. Boiling water can scorch delicate leaves and make them bitter.

What water temperature is best for green tea?

About 160-180°F (70-80°C) for most green teas, with Japanese greens often at the lower end.
