Chinese Tea: Brewing Tea With A Gaiwan 3
Gaiwan Brewing Continues...
<< Previous Page Back to Brewing Methods >>
This is pretty much like Kung Fu Cha except that we use a GaiWan instead of a teapot. Make sure you read Kung Fu brewing too because the basic concepts apply here as well. A large Gaiwan (6-7oz) is ok for the process too BUT 1) the size is hard to handle if you have to brew and pour, 2) 6-7oz is a little too large for Kung Fu Cha.
11. Use GaiWan's lid to push flowing tea leaves aside.
12. Then use the GaiWan handling meth
13. All ready, tea buddies. Enjoy. (tea in this PIC is too light to be seen under strong flash)
14. Yum ... Yum ...
15. Repeat step 8 - 14 for each infusion. Actual number of infusion depends on tea type, tea quality, brewing time, etc.
