Consider adding 10-12 grams of both big and small loose leaves, including some power leaf, into a teapot with a capacity of approximately 100ml to 160ml. To extract the full potential of the tea, we suggest using water heated to a temperature range of 95°C (203°F) up to boiling point. By following these guidelines, you can enhance the flavor profile and experience a more robust and intricate taste in your tea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none;\"\u003eAfter multiple infusions, transfer the leaves from the teapot into a kettle and gently boil them. This allows the leaves to fully open and often reveals an additional, distinctive layer of flavor and texture.
