I'm doing some Christmas Shopping for my neice and she is into tea. I recently got her a child's tea set which she really loves. But I think she should...
This whole episode reminds me of a similar tragedy, here as popular press: http://nevadadventures.com/pics&stories/bristlecone.html "In 1964 a young university...
Hey Frank, the first thing I thought of when I read this was some children's tea sets that Simpson and Vail sells, at http://www.svtea.com/tw_kidscorner.asp ...
High Blake, I've interspersed less-than-brilliant Qi comments below. But here I want to say that I drank some Gold Bud Pu'erh supplied by a well known and well...
Hello everyone, Question about caffeine extraction: I was under the impression that most of the caffeine content in teas is extracted in the first 30 seconds...
So I guess a little yixing pot is more than you want to spend? :-) My first thought was the "tea for one" pot & cup set. The pot nests into the cup for a...
... I've noticed this too, and wondered about it. If the 30-second rule is accurate, all the caffeine should be gone in the 1st or 2nd steep, when doing...
I've noticed this too. I know for sure there is more than stimulants that can keep you awake with that jittery feeling, because I got sick and stopped all...

She is still under 10 years old. I remember stash tea selling a teapot with two cups with it on a small tray and the set was reasonably priced but at the...
I think it's high time to put this particular folktale about extraction of Caffeine to rest. I've noticed what you've noticed. Yes, there is Caffeine present...

No, I have never read this. I try to steer away from MSG as it bothers me. But I could see this comparison. ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
I appreciate the info (and want more, LOL). My understanding is that tea has three stimulants (all in the caffeine family)? Do they all brew into the cup...
