Why is the Breville One Touch Tea Maker so good?
The simple explanation for why the Breville one touch tea maker is so good is due to the secret for making the perfect cup of tea. The secret is in the steeping of the tea leaves. And although we don’t like to be pedantic – you just have to get this right! And that is where the Breville one touch tea maker gets it just right!
The Breville Tea Makers controls all of the steeping variables:
- Water temperature – the water temperature during the steeping process has to be maintained as accurately as possible at the correct temperature for the type of tea you are steeping. If it starts off too hot, it will scorch the tea and make it bitter. If it cools too much during stepping, it won’t extract the correct flavour and leave the tea too weak. So this is where the tea maker has the advantage as it keeps the temperature just right for the whole steep time.
- The next variable is the steeping time, which also needs to be just right, otherwise too long will extract too much tannin from the tea leaves, which will make the brew bitter. Too short will leave the tea weak, and you wanting more! The tea machine always gets it just right.
- Let the tea leaves mingle! It is important that the tea leaves are able to mingle, jingle and dingle, so that the tea gets the best possible steeping. If the tea leaves are all cramped together, then it just doesn’t work properly. Better still, the Breville Tea Maker provides just the right amount of stirring and agitation to ensure the tea leaves infuse the perfect flavour into the perfect cup of tea.
The combination of these variables is where the tea is made or lost. In fact many tea pot brews are actually over steeped, and the average pot of tea is probably over steeped. In many cases, we possibly drink our tea a little on the bitter side, and this is where we use sweetener to compensate for the bitter flavour. The Breville one touch tea maker takes away all of the guess work, and takes out all of the bitterness of the tea, leaving us with the perfect cup of tea – every time!
