Tea Brewing Guide

Hot Brew

Place your Cha Haus tea in a teapot. Use about 3-5g of tea per 300ml of water. Add water at the correct temperature (see below) to bring out the tea's natural flavors.

Steep your tea in the pot for about one minute. Reuse the tea to make a second pot -- just add more hot water and serve.

 

Tea Temperature Guide

  • Sencha: 70-80°C
  • Matcha-genmaicha: 80-85°C
  • Genmaicha: 80-90°C
  • Hojicha: 85-95°C

 

Matcha Preparation

Place 2g of matcha in a tea bowl or large cup. Add water at 80°C to the matcha powder and whisk together until foamy.

 

Cold Brew

Cold-brewed Cha Haus teas make a refreshing drink in summer. Our sencha and matcha-genmaicha teas work best with this brewing method.

Mix your sencha or matcha-genmaicha teas with water in a jug. About 6-10g of tea will make about a liter. Steep the tea in the fridge for at least 60 minutes. Drink your cold brew tea the same day for the best flavor. Remove the tea leaves from the tea if you'd like to keep the tea for longer.
