That's 13.3 g of leaf per 100 ml, with water at 80°C (176°F). Style: Matcha. Tea: matcha tea.

Step by step

  1. Sift 4 g into a warm bowl and add 30 ml of water.
  2. Knead slowly with the whisk until smooth and glossy, without froth.

Log it as you brew. Steepbook opens a session with these numbers, scales the leaf to your teaware, times every steep and remembers how it tasted.
