I use around 1.5g tea per 100ml and make three infusions with Darjeeling (well, with most black teas really): 2mins, 3mins and “a very long time” (IDK if the third should be even considered tea… I leave it be and then drink the resulting beverage at room temp)
I don’t have an exact science. I use about a teaspoon of leaves for a cup of tea, and steep around 4 minutes for the first infusion. If I use the leaves again, I’ll do 6 minutes the second time. If it comes out too light, I’ll resteep. If it comes out too strong, I’ll add milk.
How much tea do you use and how long do you wait?
