REDUX TIME!
Steeped 4 minutes maybe a little less,put in a shallow tsp.
If this gentle steep doesn’t work I’m done I have too many fussy teas this better be amazing or I’m trading it. ( anyone up for trades btw?)
Okay so it is much better, not bitter. Pretty! Underwhelming but when done right it is nice oh wait further I drink the more bitter it gets ( exhausted sigh)
now iced: Same exact thing happens nice then descends into bitterness. … Bye bye Kokomo seems our visits start well then descend into shittiness towards each other.Not a win for DT change the formula please because this is like a bad ex you keep going to for a good kiss and mediocre to bad sex.
Yeah I said it.

Youch. That sounds awful. I wonder why it’s giving you so much trouble? I thought maybe 200F was too hot for a green, but if you’re icing it, then you’re not burning the leaves. Strange!
Yeah I’ll trade it to a person who lives for green tea…it is just not worth it when there are so many teas that do work. I haven’t done a cold steep I just do Icing the normal way : make tea normally then pour over a glass full of ice cubes.or on a larger scale…the icing I did would have mellowed it since I didn’t go double strong still bitter and nah isn’t worth it.

Sorry, I did try cold brewing this. Still finicky.
That sucks. Hopefully you can trade it or do something with it! You’ve put enough effort in!
