A Guide For Every Tea
Choose a tea and the vessel you brew in. The guide weighs the leaf for your pot, reads the water in °C or °F and times each infusion.


Mind The Water
Boiling water scalds green and white tea. Let it stand, or use the temperature the guide gives.


Weigh The Leaf
Move the vessel slider: the grams follow your pot or gaiwan, never a guess.


Lengthen Each Steep
Every infusion adds a few seconds. The counter knows how long the one you are on should be.

Asked At The Tea Table
The leaf gives most at first. Adding a few seconds each time draws an even cup from every infusion until the leaf is spent.
Yes: boil the water, then let it stand. Two minutes brings it near 80 °C for green tea, four minutes near 70 °C for gyokuro.
Each tea's guide gives grams per 100 ml; move the vessel slider and the guide weighs the leaf for your pot or gaiwan.
