I love coffee, but have a surplus of tea bags that I want to experiment with. Does anyone have suggestions for how to get started with tea? Or a simple recipe to use as a baseline? I’m only working with tea bags at this time, which appear to be 2g. I would also love to know how much agitation you are supposed to do with the tea bag itself.

    Today, I was trying oolong. But I have black tea as well. No herbals or greens (I think those are the main families, right?)

      I usually do black tea right off the boil for 4 minutes, and oolong I’ll throw a (smallish) ice cube in the cup after the boil till it’s melted and do a 3 minute steep.
