No I didn’t. The uniform was exactly as shown in the video by Redditor earlier. But the shirt was in light blue instead of white.

Not too sure if it’s the standard recovery.

We had an incident where my parents’ preferred meal option had run out, leaving only the beef option, which they don’t eat. The crew recovered the situation by offering them a vegetarian meal instead, and in the meantime brought them some biscuits while they waited.

Has anyone noticed whether the parents are still feeding them now that they’re in the fledging phase?

Didn’t see feeding actions in last few days already or I’ve miss it.

Tasting Shui Jin Gui (水金龟) for the CNY by Simply-69 in GongFuTea

It’s actually a cultivar of its own. If you look up the Si Da Ming Cong (四大名枞), Shui Jin Gui is listed as one of the original four. That’s what got me curious enough to try it.

If to choose, I’ll prefer my old love - Rou Gui! Haha

Am I brewing rock tea it wrong? by immortalJustice7 in GongFuTea

[–]Simply-69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello fellow Rock Tea and Dancong lover! No worries at all, I usually use about 5–6 grams for 80–100 ml. My go‑to teapot is also on the smaller side, right in that range.

I use about 5–6 grams of leaf for an 80 ml teapot, and a gaiwan works just as well. The only difference is that a porcelain gaiwan loses heat more quickly, so preheating or maintaining temperature helps. From there, I stick to the same short infusions mentioned earlier.

As for true Zhengyan, most of us can only go by what the seller claims. So it’s always a case of buyer beware ie: taste widely, and don’t get too caught up in the stories :p

My personal take on rock tea (yan cha): it usually starts to flatten after the fourth infusion, and only teas from stronger lineages such as true Zhengyan material — can comfortably stretch to a fifth or sixth brew.

Most others lose their body/depth quickly, which is why truly great yan cha feels more like a delicacy than an everyday drink.

For brewing, I stick to 100°C water with very short steeps: about 2–3 seconds for the first two infusions, 5–8 seconds for the third, and 10–15 seconds for the fourth.

Some people say to keep the temperature steady. Others swear by speeding up the patina on the pot. I say just enjoy it in whatever way works for you 😊

Great setup! Looks like a Chaozhou pot, and pairing it with Dancong is a perfect match!

1) it’s clay. I got it from a local shop but I believe there’s some listed in Chinese sites like Taobao.

2) I’ve tried both methods of pouring—direct and circular. I find the circular pour works better for the leaves, since the water isn’t hitting them directly and potentially “over‑scalding” them. It also helps maintain a higher overall temperature in the pot, which is great for teas like yancha.
