That man broke my heart. That couch was my LIFE.

Sorry dermo, i digress: healthy drop o full fat milk, no sugar, Two choccy bikkies and thats me.
 
i like it black. i couldn't imagine taking sugar in tea now, though i took it when i was much younger. fucking yukk.
 
I'm a Twinings lady - Earl Grey or Lady Grey, depending on the mood.

How long does one brew the tea for? One of my friends is a purist and sets a stopwatch when making the tea, he brews it for 3 minutes 40 seconds.
 
between 5-7 minutes, usually. The leaves start to release tannin after that (not good, usually) I think the more delicate blends need far less time than that.
 
sheesh, i just introduce me water to me tea. none of that strong stuff for me.

difrent with coffee but. man, if the spoon ain't standing up in it, you're a jessie.

Twinings for me as well...no milk or sugar ever - it took me 20 years to discover that I actually like tea, as I always assumed it had to be off-white and sweet.

If you want to get really serious about your brewing, then the water temperature and length of brewage will depend on the kind of tea. I just leave it for about 3 minutes or until I remember I've made a cup.
 
I loves the tea so much I spend €70 on the perfect tea-pot. €70!
Any amount over one cup gets made in the pot, other than that, tea bag in the cup will do. I was in a relation's house once and thay were making tea for something like 8 people. 8 cups and 8 tea bags... NO TEA POT IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!! Some people.

er, Lyons. Green one. Currently on 5 cups a day.
