Green Tea
Green tea should not be prepared with boiling water. Depending on the variety, the
ideal temperature is 70 – 80°C. The higher quality the tea, the lower the optimum water
temperature. The infusion time also differs depending on the quality of the tea. Most
varieties need to infuse for roughly 1 – 3 minutes. High-quality green tea only needs to
infuse for around 1 – 1½ minutes.
Proceed as follows to make green tea:
1. Pour water into the kettle (3) (see the "Operation" chapter | "Filling the Kettle").
2. Unscrew the tea strainer (6) if necessary from the tea strainer holder (7) on the lid (1)
(note the marking on the tea strainer).
3. Fill the tea strainer with tea leaves or tea bags.
Green tea generally has a lower concentration than black tea. Roughly 1 g is added
to 100 ml of water or 1 heaped teaspoon is added to 200 ml of water.
4. Pour the appropriate amount of water into the kettle (3). Note the MIN (5) and MAX
marking (8)!
5. Screw the tea strainer onto the tea strainer holder on the lid (note the marking on the
tea strainer) until it engages.
6. Pull the tea strainer upwards with the aid of the knob (Picture B) until it engages up
on the lid.
7. Place the lid on the kettle (see the "Operation" chapter | "Removing / Attaching the
Lid").
8. Switch on the keep-warm function and heat the water (see the "Preparation" chapter |
"Keeping Warm" and "Heating Water").
9. As soon as the water has reached the desired temperature, press the knob
downwards to immerse the tea strainer in the hot water.
10. After the required infusion time, pull the tea strainer upwards using the knob.
11. Remove the kettle from the base station (4), and pour the tea into a tea cup or a tea
glass.
12. Then place the kettle back on the base station – this keeps the tea hot.
