Finally figured out the Earl Grey Bravo!

Yay for me. I figured out the Earl Grey Bravo. Finally. It's such a strong tea that a very little bit really goes a long way. I think I need to buy a tea scale, since the way I measure it now is to eyeball it in the cup sized tea infuser that I have, and then put it into the ingenuiTEA...but I've modified this whole setup now. I boil the water in the microwave (takes 4 minutes! Much quicker than the stove with kettle) using the ingenuiTEA, since it works well there, and I can see the water boiling, then I pour the boiling water into my cup with the tea leaves in the infuser. It's not as fun doing it this way because I can't watch the tea leaves fall, but I feel like it's more efficient and I have more control over the brewing process somehow. And cleanup is a bit easier, too. The ingenuiTEA doesn't stain this way, either.

So I digressed: the Earl Grey Bravo is STRONG stuff! I use a very small amount to get a strong cup of tea. I need to get a scale to measure it more accurately so I can be more consistent in each cup, and come up with a proper amount for each tea that suits my taste. I know that I can't use the same amount of Yunnan Jig as Darjeeling.
