my mom bought me some tea that comes without the tea bag. i have the strainer and everything so the tea can seep in the water, but i always end up with tons of fucking tea floating around afterwards. the strainer has very small holes, so its baffling me on how it is getting out. but each time, without fail, i have tea grounds at the bottom of my cup.
any tips on how to get that shit to seep clean?
not design related, but tea helps me to design. so, uh, yeah.
love,

matt, put the tea leaves in a pre-warmed teapot, pour on hot (not boiling) water. Allow to brew to your taste. Put the strainer on the cup and pur the tea through it. Then, and only then may you add milk and sugar! lol

ah, but i dont have a pot.

make sure you buy a good strainer. One that doesn't leak and also look into getting tea leaves that aren't so granular.

Rooibos tea from South Africa is ace. They had these great tea shops where you could buy 25 different varieties of it and for cheap, cheap and yep they prebrew everything. Their process is nice, but the Brits and Indians probably do it the best along with China.
