Tea is the most commonly consumed beverage in the world after water.

Good tea making begins with good quality water and having proper steeping

time. With the NESCO Real Tea tea maker, you only need to provide the water

and the appliance does the rest. As you experiment with different teas, you will

figure out which teas you prefer to brew stronger and which teas taste better

brewed weaker.

Gernerally, 1-1/2 teaspoons of loose leaf tea per 10 oz. cup - this formula will

vary for gourmet teas. Serving size is more of an art than of science. Experiment

until you find the perfect amount for your personal taste.

Tea will expand 2 to 5 times in size after absorbing water, do not overfill filter

chamber. High quality teas can be steeped longer, add one minute of steeping

for each steep.

TEA STORAGE: Store teas in tightly sealed container and in a cool, dry place

away from direct sunlight and strong odors. Never refrigerate tea or store near

spices as flavor and odors may transfer to your tea. Metal containers work best

when placed in cupboard or pantry.

Type of tea

English Breakfast or Earl Grey teas

Fruity teas

Green teas

Oolong tea

White tea

BLACK: Black tea is the most familiar tea type to North Americans and

Europeans. Earl Grey, English Breakfast and orange Pekoe ar all black teas. Black

teas pair nicely with dairy and sweetener. Good black tea can usually be steeped

longer, which explains why they usually contain highter amounts of caffiene.

GREEN: Green tea is best known for its grassy vegetal notes and greenish

liquor and leaves. Green tea has minimal processing, protecting valuable

antioxidants. Green teas must be steeped more carefully, as they can become

bitter if steeped too long.

HERBAL/FRUIT: Herbal/Fruity teas by definition are not really teas they

are made of herbs, flowers, berries, spices, roots, fruits or other flora sources.

These types of teas are generally caffiene free.

OOLONG: Oolong teas are another healthy variety of tea and similar to Green

teas. They are full bodied with a sweet aroma and low in caffiene.

WHITE: White teas are the least processed and contain only the buds and very

young leaves of the plant. As a result, they are more rare and expensive. They

have a delicate taste and health profile as green teas.
