A starting point for your next brew
Western-style starting point
6 g tea / 500 ml water · 95 °C · 60 seconds.
For 150 ml, proportional scaling gives 1.8 g: 6 × 150 ÷ 500. This preserves the listed ratio, rather than predicting the best flavor.
Gongfu starting point
6 g tea / 150 ml water · 95 °C · 10 seconds.
For 150 ml, proportional scaling gives 6 g: 6 × 150 ÷ 150. This preserves the listed ratio, rather than predicting the best flavor.
These starting points come from the supplier listing, not a tasting test by KongMing. Adjust one variable at a time and record what you notice.
