Just made my first cuppa of the day.

Fresh water in kettle.
Tea bag held high on spoon.
Milk in last.

It's a corker.

Taken with a fried egg on marmited multiseed toast.

Perfection.

Can I just get a clarification on this method (the tea rather than the toast). You pour the water through the teabag but once the mug is at the required level do you then drop the bag into the cup? I mean does the bag sit in the water or are you only passing the water through like one of those drip-drip-drip coffee machines?

Sorry I missed this.

If you are confident that you did the pour slowly enough, with enough height to get good aeration, you can forego putting the bag in the cup after through-pouring.

You may need some practice before getting to that godlike skill level.

Hmmm, still unconvinced, perhaps I need a masterclass, put the kettle on I'll be round in a minute (if you're stocked up on chocolate rich tea biscuits).
