A few similar questions from our tea friends about Harmony Codes that
I often mention, and why using these glass teapots in my cupping room?
We do standardized cupping with the traditional cupping sets for Black tea and Green tea.
We do Taiwan Oolong standardized cupping with TTMA standard cupping
sets (*slightly larger than traditional cupping sets as Taiwan Oolong
tends to unfurl with larger leaves.)
When standardized cupping- every one can has his/her set combination on
amount of leaf, water temperature, steeping time - to do the cupping
in consistency. So we can give a better evaluation on each tea we are
cupping.
Yet, to define the best tasting and try to bring the
best of each tea...We will need to make some experiments of infusion tests...
With these glass teapots, 3 oz/5 oz/12 oz, which are so much easier for me to
find the proper steeping time... That is how I usually write my Harmony
Codes. Some lightly oxidized oolong I tend to add more amount and
shorter the steeping time...on the contrary, some higher oxidized
oolong, I will have less leaf and longer steeping...
