To activate the tea’s aroma, it is necessary to warm the tea, i.e., pour out the boiled water immediately for the first time, which can have 1-2 times. The speed must be quick so that the taste of the tea soup can be prevented from being influenced. While really starting, for about 1 minute the tea soup can be poured into the public cup, and then continue the second. With more time, the time can be prolonged slowly, from 1 minute to a few minutes gradually, which can keep the even density of tea soup. |
