Guest Scuba1 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I am curious as to the best way to get a flavorsome cup of tea without waiting ages and I am specifically refering to the tea bag in a mug way of brewing the tea. Until this morning I have always gone for the sink and 'squash against the mg with my spoon' method. This morning I tried the 'leave floating with air in the bag' method and I think my tea was ready more quickly. Anyway, being already into the 'zone of senior moments' I wondered if other people had found this to be the case? Also, are pyramid bags better than other shapes and can one bag really make two cups of tea. Lastly, is anyone aware of any illness that may be diagnosed by a sudden urge to drink tea? I'm off for another cup and I hope to have some answers by the time I get back. ATB Michael Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Scuba1 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 I have read somewhere, that Tea has aluminium in it. This causes altzheimers disease. Symptoms continually posting with irrational subjects. I am off for a cup of tea to think about this new danger. Oh and memory loss. Bye... Oh and did I say memory loss.

mattydski 560 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 My personal taste is to put the milk in before removing the tea bag.........and i put far too much milk in as well. It stops the stewed taste!! Try it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Scuba1 Posted June 2, 2009 Report Share Posted June 2, 2009 tea leaves contain more caffeine than coffee beans, so are you a PG addict? Thats dry weight though. A cup of tea only has a third of the caffeine of a cup of coffee. Sorry I forgot about the 100 quid. I'll sort that out ASAP. Did I ask about floaters or sinkers yet ???
