Loose-leaf tea steeped in a gaiwan, which ever tea leaves I happen to have.
I am so oversensitive to caffeine, that I tend to lose my sleep if I drink even a cup of coffee a day. So, if I drink coffee, I prefer decaf. There are some good decaf coffees nowadays.
Fun fact: Black tea is called red tea in China, because of the color.
L-theanine might help with caffeine’s side effects. Theanine is a compound found in tea. It’s believed to reduce the negative side effects of caffeine, without affecting the positive effects of it.
He’s the savior of our planet!
Most teas don’t expire if stored correctly. Green teas should generally be consumed within a year from the manufacturing date.
Would using a teapot with an infuser have a similar effect to a gai wan?
To brew tea or coffee, you need about four items/things:
- A method to heat water to a proper temperature
- A vessel to do the brewing in
- A method to separate the tea leaves / coffee grounds from the liqueur
- A cup to drink the liqueur from
If you want to try to gongfu brew it with what you have at home, you can use some kind of smallish vessel (about 150ml), like a coffee mug or small water/milk pitcher (make sure it can handle boiling water). Use something as a lid-like object to keep the heat from escaping and helping to pour the liqueur while keeping the leaves in the vessel. A big spoon might work, if that’s all you can figure. If you have any kind of fine mesh filter (or just coffee filter paper), you can use that to keep the leaves from getting to your drinking cup.
Beat me to it. But I’d like to add that white tea is usually brewed at 90C, which is about 194F.
There are two common styles of brewing tea, western and eastern. Western style uses less tea leaves for an amount of water and the brewing time is longer. Eastern style, commonly known as gongfu style (can also be written kungfu), is more leaves per amount of water and shorter brews. Gongfu style also lets you brew the same leaves several times, while western style spends the leaves in one brewing.
If you want to gongfu brew it, I recommend about 5g of leaves for 100g of water. White tea doesn’t go bitter that easily, so you can just brew it until it’s good for your taste buds. You can start from 10-30s for the first brew and then add 5 second for every successive brews. Adjust as you see fit.
To break the leaves from the cake, use some long thin metal object. Screwdriver if that’s all you have. Avoid cutting it, unless that’s the only way to break it.
Google Translate gave this result:
If you google something like ‘7680hz led’, you’ll find many results of products and such. 7680 is a multiple of 20, 24, 30, 60, among others, which are all common frame speeds for video files, but also for recording video. I also found this video, which shows the difference of large size screens with different refresh rates: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JP6fHWcUifo
There’s a new similar phishing attack thanks to Google and their .zip domain. Web browsers support a feature that lets you use addresses of the form
protocol://username:password@domain.tld. That feature allows you to log in todomain.tldwith the given credentials. When you combine that with Unicode forward slashes, you can craft addresses that look likehttps://microsoft.com/files/@windowsupdate.zip, where the part betweenhttps://and@is a username and the part after@is the actual address most likely used for malicious intends. My example uses normal slashes, so will lead to Microsoft’s website and page not found error.windowsupdate.zipis a domain someone has registered, but leads to no-where as of today. PSA: Don’t go to random web addresses you find on the Internet or elsewhere.
I once heard this story about a company, that had a server room. The room was locked so no-one could get in without permission, which is a good practice. At some point, they started to wonder why one of their servers becomes unreachable every Friday at X o’clock. Eventually, they figured out that their new cleaner entered the server room every Friday and unplugged one of the power cables to plug the vacuum cleaner in to the outlet.

Maybe you should treat your wife with better quality matcha
I want to start drinking tea more instead of coffee
Not sure if you are aware of it, but matcha has pretty high caffeine content. It’s less than in coffee, but more than in other types of tea. One gram of matcha powder contains approximately 20-45mg of caffeine. So, if you prepare a cup of matcha using 2 grams of matcha powder, you could get up to 90 mg of caffeine. Tea leaves being naturally grown things, it’s impossible to know how much caffeine is in each tea leaf.
In case you want to reduce your caffeine intake even more, you might want to try other Japanese green teas. As you like matcha, your taste buds might agree with other Japanese green teas as well.
Also I have a cold brew coffee maker, could I put the powder in the filter as I submerge it? How long would it last in the fridge (assuming I can)?
One tea brewing method you might want to look into is grandpa style tea brewing. To grandpa style brew tea, you simply put some tea leaves into some kind of container, such as mug or water bottle, and add some water. As you drink the tea throughout the day, you just add more water over the leaves as needed, basically keeping the leaves submerged in water the whole day. Some teas are better suited for grandpa style brewing than others. Japanese tea leaves are usually broken leaves, and broken leaves quickly turns the tea liquor bitter/astringent and as such might not be suited for grandpa style brewing.
There are couple tea communities that might be helpful in your tea journey:
Many plants have anti-nutrients, compounds that inhibit absorption of nutrients. Both coffee and tea inhibit absorption of some minerals, such as iron.
