  • I assume you know that you can steep loose leaf more than once? Many can be steeped 3-6 times depending on style and you often won't be getting the best steep until several in. I expect to get 4 cups per 2.5g/tsp, so would be looking at 48 cups for 30g worth. You are either a thirsty pair or using way to much tea.

    Get a tea cosy if you're throwing away a lot because its cold or a smaller tea pot.

  • Hadn’t realised this for black tea so hopefully we’ll save money and use the same leaves for 2-3 brews in a day.

    We tend to drink big mugs - total volume approx 800ml for two mugs. So I have been aiming for a brew ratio of 1g/100ml.
