I live in Denver which is at an altitude of about 5,400 feet(1646 meters), which does have a impact on water temperatures and tea brewing.

Do you have a good method for brewing cold sencha? When I lived in Japan I liked buying the bottled oi ocha from vending machines, but I've never been able to make sencha that tastes the same by myself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09167752736760958066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4072833279100636926.post-86782106188163409672013-04-01T16:27:28.088+09:002013-04-01T16:27:28.088+09:00I’m glad to hear that you have tried this test for...I’m glad to hear that you have tried this test for yourself. Isn’t it interesting? <br />I think your guess will be right. The prepared tea with method C for 120 sec will probably have the taste between methods B and C.

Will never do again. Yikes!<br /><br />Brewing method B was awesomely vegetal and produced a strong cup. Definitely packed more of a caffeine punch to it. It's the way to go for a nice cup to wake you up in the morning.<br /><br />Brewing method C was much more "mellow." It had less caffeine (you could tell) in the cup and the liquid felt thicker in my mouth. This is great for an evening brew or maybe something to go alongside a meal but not overpower the food's taste.<br /><br />I'm curious about if I did method C and tried 120 seconds instead, as well. My guess is it would be somewhere in the middle between methods B and C.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02951615266679981257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4072833279100636926.post-14703571822539940942011-10-17T09:15:20.940+09:002011-10-17T09:15:20.940+09:00Hi, Anonymous-san,

Even in Japan, some people prefer brewing sencha with boiling water^^ Have fun and great tea with Hiroshi teapot!Koheihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12904754164913045544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4072833279100636926.post-91667193663701233312011-10-14T19:41:23.676+09:002011-10-14T19:41:23.676+09:00Hello Kohei-sab,

Some (like Yutakamidori) need - in my experience - lower temperatures otherwise they taste too bitter. Other varieties (not necessarily lower grade) need higher temperature and a bit more time to brew.<br /><br />I think personal taste has a lot to do with it as well. As a westerner I do not pretend to know what is "right"... this gives me the freedom to experiment with what tastes nice to me. <br /><br />BTW I have an Hiroshi Mizuno teapot on its way to me, recently ordered from your online shop. I have no doubts the tea brewed with it will turn out very lovely. <br /><br />Best regards, Jonathan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4072833279100636926.post-4815215239814891532011-02-04T07:47:40.059+09:002011-02-04T07:47:40.059+09:00You are right, David-san!

It will depend on the tea (^-^)<br /><br />This theory works with fukamushi-sencha as well, but you need to shorter the brewing time. 20sec(90degC), 30sec(80C), 50sec(70C)… somewhere around that. But again, it depends on tea (^_-)-☆Koheihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12904754164913045544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4072833279100636926.post-61600723988210378442011-02-04T02:34:51.353+09:002011-02-04T02:34:51.353+09:00I have been trying B and C for some days as a matt...I have been trying B and C for some days as a matter of fact.

I have a built in filter on my faucet, so it can brew pretty good tea. <br /><br /> If you are interested in water, please look at my previous posts. I have tested different water for green tea. <br /><br />These four posts are about water for green tea.<br />http://everyonestea.blogspot.com/2010/03/water-for-green-tea.html<br />http://everyonestea.blogspot.com/2010/03/water-for-green-tea-2.html<br />http://everyonestea.blogspot.com/2010/03/water-for-green-tea-3.html<br />http://everyonestea.blogspot.com/2010/03/can-you-take-off-chlorine-smell-for-tap.html<br /><br />Thanks!Koheihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12904754164913045544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4072833279100636926.post-44324881954853205012011-02-03T18:37:43.114+09:002011-02-03T18:37:43.114+09:00Very interesting.
