Cheeky :)
Very interesting to learn this, since I had always assumed the first brew to be the best. I wonder, does this make reusing teabags a good idea, as well?

- simiones 8y agoIt usually has to be pretty good tea for anything but the second infusion to have any taste left at all, in my experience.
- krylon 8y agoMaybe my standards are just very low, but I have had a fairly consistent experience of getting decent second infusions out of fairly pedestrian teas. Maybe the timing has an impact on this, I rarely let my tea sit for more than 60-90 seconds, unless it's Oolong.
