Green tea is my jam, that slight bitterness at the end.... delicious
Pu-Erh is awesome all the time.
I tea. I love Chinese and Indian teas. Assam Breakfast or Irish Breakfast are awesome in the morning. Pu-Erh is awesome all the time. Dong Ding Oolong is love and Oolong in general is awesome. And Darjeeling is just nice and relaxing.
I can't stand to add milk to it unless it's in a Chai tea and then it should be soy milk.
Oatmeal cookies are awesome though, especially with raisins and sometimes with dark chocolate chunks.Green tea is my jam, that slight bitterness at the end.... delicious
Green tea should never be bitter. If it is, you're either getting low quality leaves or you're way oversteeping.

Classic milk tea with soft puddings (lots of them)
that's the way to go, red bean is OK
not bubbles
Pu-Erh is awesome all the time.

Matcha green tea has a slight tinge of bitterness in it which i quite like although i may add too much powder at times

You really know your way around tea
I love coffee more than tea, but my gastric says otherwise
What I know is mine has to be black tea, I just love the color of dark tea with a tiny swirl of milk
My favorite oatmeal cookies combo
1. Honey + almond
2. Apple + cinnamon
3. Raisin

What do you guys think of yellow tea? I personally think its kinda overrated and overpriced. It tastes like green tea except slightly more bold

I enjoy a nice, hot black tea, but I've never really cared for milk in my teas.
Tea is my prefered beverage. usually my everyday tea is either a simple green or black, sometimes ill go to the trouble of making a chai tea late or iced black tea. I like to keep some specialty teas around though like matcha, red tea, or an aged Pu-erh ( i have a 1/4 lb of a 2007 " dark river" tea that's about $100 a pound or so that i save for special occasions) but i drink cheaper teas a majority of the time for my coffee substitute.

You don't really want to "age tea" because unless they're in a very good oxygen barrier, the tea can only get "worse" with age...
Even then, what happens is, they usually use some sort of Plastic+Foil combination wrapper, the foil is good, but the plastic part degrades given heat and time.

Isn't pu-erh fermented so aging it is different?

When you attempt to do things "out of Spec"
Then there is no "reference point"
Whatever happens when you age these teas in Untested, Unregulated conditions with infinite variables, will only surely "CHANGE" the tea.
We can't readily assign a "good or bad" to what happens.
It will be "New" , If that's your thing. . go for it.
I dont do it myself, i usually try to only get enough to last me a couple of months at most, but i mean like the fermented pu erh teas that are aged as part of there processing where it is purposely and controllably exposed to oxygen and oxidized.
"Ripened or aged raw pu-erh has occasionally been mistakenly categorized as a subcategory of black tea due to the dark red color of its leaves and liquor. However, pu-erh in both its ripened and aged forms has undergone secondary oxidization and fermentation caused both by organisms growing in the tea and free-radical oxidation, thus making it a unique type of tea. This divergence in production style not only makes the flavor and texture of pu-erh tea different but also results in a rather different chemical makeup of the resulting brewed liquor." ~ a description from one of the sites i like to get tea from

Yes, but my point is, if the idea is to Preserve the Tea as you purchased it..
you do not KNOW what the factory spec conditions are.. so you can't hope to ensure that the taste is unaffected by any personal medley..
Which is why I wouldn't recommend "storing" your tea in hopes that it will be perfect the next time you brew it.

Worse in reference to "preserving the tea", because user -Connely- said he wished to "hold on to his tea" by spacing it out to be enjoyed longer.
But with respect to if one MUST do something to his tea for the sake of "novelty".. We can't say absolutely good or bad

Your use of "quotes" is sending me to the "bothering" you "thread". I just keep picturing someone using air quotes in real life on those words and it looks silly. I'm assuming you're just trying to emphasize though.
Let's just say tea is good, yea.

I'll definitely have to find a reputable shop or site. Luckily the city right next to me has a lot of artisan type buissneses so there are a lot of tea shops.

I've tried Good Eats too. Maybe it's just because I saw the later episodes, but he always comes off as an arrogant know it all to me. When he goes into the science of things, it's not like Beakman's World or Bill Nye where they were making things simple and interesting, it always felt like a case of "look how much more than you I know". Just something about his personality is so off-putting. He feels like one of those people who thinks he's hot **** and hits on the married women at a party.

I was on the same flight as him a few years ago. The flight consisted of me, my family, the flight crew, and Alton Brown. I don't think my family knew who he was, and I didn't say hello since I didn't wan't to bother him, especially since it was like an 11 o'clock flight.

I've read a few interviews that he's done. He claims that even his good eats persona is a character but not far off from how he really is other than the fact that all of his dialog is scripted and pre-rehearsed. He definitely doesn't talk like that day to day. He used to be involved in television production and then went to uni to study food science and vowed to make an actually good and informative cooking show which j believe he successfully accomplished. Something along those lines anyway. The rest is history.Fair enough. We can't all have the same opinions. What a boring world that would be.MoreMoreAre you referring to villain Alton?

But if you haven't seen good eats and you're into cooking shows, I suggest giving it a try unless he is too far spoiled for you already from his more modern series'.
I've tried Good Eats too. Maybe it's just because I saw the later episodes, but he always comes off as an arrogant know it all to me. When he goes into the science of things, it's not like Beakman's World or Bill Nye where they were making things simple and interesting, it always felt like a case of "look how much more than you I know". Just something about his personality is so off-putting. He feels like one of those people who thinks he's hot **** and hits on the married women at a party.
Haha. I think I might have an Alton Brown man crush.
Most do it seems. I still think he's a douche.
Well, That's just his TV persona.. we don't know what he's like for sure..
He could actually be a douche, but maybe that's just for the TV
I could talk about how much I enjoy good eats and how much I've learned from Alton all day long. But that's another show.MoreMoreAre you referring to villain Alton? Aka cutthroat kitchen or good eats Alton?Hey, I'm no nutritional anthropologist, but I would say that these teas sound like........
Good Eats
Alton brown is the best. I would love if Good Eats came back!
I must be in the minority because I feel like Alton Brown comes off as a smug obnoxious *******.
Pretty much anything I've seen him in. He's less smug in Iron Chef, but still annoying.
Yea he does come off as a bit of a know it all on Iron chef. I felt the same way about him until I watched good eats. But that's probably because he did 14 seasons of a cooking/science show and probably does know it all haha. And his role is play-by-play/commentator on Iron chef. Cutthroat is a straight up villainous character.

i like how he explains the reasoning/science behind techniques for cooking. usually you'll follow a recipe, and it will say to do something like "let the steak rest", but the recipe doesn't explain why. i learned how to make pretty tasty steaks from watching one of his good eats episodes.
oh, and i like tea. japanese green teas (matcha, and also the type with the little toasted rice bits), chinese teas, hk style milk tea, turkish (?) tea with cardamom, etc.
I just woke up.. felt a bit 'gloom'.. Then I drank all this Tieguanying, and now I'm still gloom, but also very hyper, so it has turned into this really uncomfortable over-energization..Show Image(http://textemoticons.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/th_0tasma.gif)
On the train. Sigh... I h8 outside. So much danger, no free drinks either.

Yeah, but look at the texture resolution!

OMG it's so clear.. def at least 4k textures, I think I'd still like to upgrade to the 8k patch though.

Took a long bike ride this evening, rainy and gloomy, i swear the textures went down to 720p with the rain affects against my glasses.

You gotta turn up them shaders and shadow resolution..
You prolly had the shader on medium and shadow on 512, turn shadow up to 2048 minimum. turn max to 8196
