Preparing your cup
Mug or teapot: 3g per 250ml; 95°C / 203°F; start with 2 minutes.
Gongfu: 5g per 100–120ml; 95–100°C / 203–212°F; start with 10–15 seconds, then lengthen later infusions to taste.
Give the leaves room to open and remove or strain the tea when it reaches your preferred strength. Re-steep while the flavour remains enjoyable. These are starting points: adjust the leaf amount, water and time to your taste.
Use the published 95°C mug starting point or a short gongfu recipe. Drain the vessel fully and lengthen later infusions gradually instead of leaving the leaves in the finished drink.
