急須を使った緑茶の淹れ方

HOW TO PREPARE GREEN TEA USING KYUSU

| Boil water and cool it to the right temperature in a yuzamashi or water cooling pitcher.

2 | Measure five (5) grams (1 teaspoon) for a kyusu with 200ml to 250ml of water. Then add to a dry and clean kyusu teapot.

| Slowly pour the cooled water into the kyusu, filling it about 90% full, leaving room at the top for cleaner decantation.

4 | Add the lid for the recommended infusion time, generally about one to two minutes for Japanese green tea

5 | Hold the kyusu, secure the lid with your thumb, and pour tea into cups, alternating between them 6-7 times to ensure each cup gets an equal amount. Pour out all the tea from the kyusu.
