BEFORE FIRST USE OF yOUR BREvILLE TEA MAKER™
TIPS FOR OPTIMAL TEA BREWING
• Water quality affects taste. For best
results, use filtered water.
• Finer tea particles and leaves will infuse
more quickly than whole leaves. As a
result, finer tea particles often release
too much tannin too quickly, creating a
harsher taste. Adjust the brewing time
until desired strength is achieved.
• Using the tea scoop provided, spoon
roughly one scoop of tea per cup / 8oz /
250ml of water.
