How do you know the quantity of tea leaves to brew to suit the size of your teapot? Firstly, it is obvious that the more tea leaves you use, the more concentrated the liquor, which can cause an imbalance in its components. To avoid an unpleasant experience, use 0.07 oz. (2g) of tea leaves for 4 fl. oz. (12cl) of water. To weigh the dry leaves, you can find electronic scales on our website, accurate to the nearest 0.1g. You can also use tea filters or tea measures, and use the quantity of leaves indicated. Another option is to use tea bags, which makes life very easy as each one contains 0.07 oz. (2g) of tea!
