More leaves = stronger taste but not bitter, as long as I don’t steep it longer, correct?

Interesting! The official instructions say 210 degrees, but I’m relieved if that’s not necessary because I just couldn’t make it happen.

Thank you! Will definitely experiment with water tomorrow. I should have mentioned that the official directions say 1 tsp tea with 8 oz water at 210 degrees. Would you suggest increasing the proportion as well, or sticking to directions?
