How to make tea with a bowl and teapot?

Today, let's talk about two sets of tea sets that we often use: a bowl cover and a teapot.

In the past, the cover bowl used for making tea was mostly used for making scented tea and Tieguanyin, and there was no limit. When in use, it can be used for making tea, drinking alone, or as a cup for a person to drink tea directly. The materials for making the bowl cover are porcelain, purple sand, glass, etc. , and all kinds of colors cover the bowl the most.

Mr. Lu Xun once wrote in the article "Drinking Tea": "If you want to drink good tea, you must build a bowl. So I covered the bowl. Sure enough, the color after soaking is sweet, slightly fragrant and slightly bitter, which is really good tea. " Among many bowls, lamps, pots and cups, why does Mr. Lu Xun only appreciate the cover bowl? There is a reason for this.

There is also a saying among tea people that all kinds of tea can be brewed in one bowl. The reason why friends who love to drink tea around them are not used to using the cover bowl is mostly because they think that the cover bowl will be hot and will be overturned if it is not well controlled (I have seen a girl who used the cover bowl to make tea for the first time pick up the cover bowl and burn it, throwing her hands to the ground).

Here are some suggestions for you to choose and use the covered bowl: If the tea you usually make is mostly the kind of tea I mentioned above, I suggest you ask the store about the capacity of the covered bowl when you buy it.

The average gram of black tea is 5-6 grams. 8 grams of rock tea, Tieguanyin and Fenghuang Danzong. These grams are the standard grams of tea packaging (bubble bags) in the market, and also the grams of tea samples in the industry. Therefore, 130CC- 145CC is the most suitable (120cc is also acceptable, but if tea drinkers are strong in tea, such as Chaoshan people, they make about12g of tea, so 130CC can make tea more flexibly).

Small capacity, not sure about the soaking time, it will be very thick. Too much water will fade. If you are a girl, you can't catch your hands if they are not big enough.

After talking about capacity, let's talk about appearance. In fact, any bowl cover will burn, even experts often get scalded, but as long as you choose the right bowl cover, you can avoid it as much as possible.

1, cover the bowl

The raw material of the bowl cover is ceramic, which is fired at high temperature. The bowl cover is divided into three parts: tea bowl, tea cover and tea boat. Building a bowl is also called a "three-talent bowl", that is, heaven, earth and people are three talents. The top tea cover is the sky, the middle tea bowl is the people, and the bottom tea boat is the ground. It is one of our common tea-making tools. Because of its delicate texture, it is not easy to absorb fragrance, most tea leaves can be brewed in a covered bowl.

When it comes to the use of the bowl cover, you need to remember never to tilt your blue fingers when holding the bowl cover-it will easily make your muscles tired, and it will easily slip away and get burned. The best way is that the ring finger and the little finger are slightly curled when the bowl is served.

A reasonable soup-making method can refer to the following three points:

(1) Find a gap that is suitable for pouring tea, and take it as the standard that tea is not poured quickly.

② The first joint of the index finger buckles the lid button of the bowl lid and presses it tightly.

③ The index finger and middle finger of the thumb are horizontal, inclined from the front center point, and quickly poured out (women can also hold the bottom of the bowl with four fingers of their left hand to help out the soup).

2. Teapot

Teapots are mouthparts for making and pouring tea, and they are also an important part of tea sets. It consists of a pot cover, a pot body, a pot bottom and ring feet. The pot cover has holes, buttons, seats, covers and other details. The pot body has mouth, lip wall, mouth, flower, belly, shoulder, handle, wrench and other parts.

A good teapot may accompany you all your life. Therefore, it is very important to choose a good pot and take good care of it. Of course, the material and density of each pot are different, and the common ones are teapot, porcelain pot and glass pot. I suggest you be familiar with what kind of tea is suitable for brewing before making a choice, and it is best to make a pot of tea.

The use of teapots is different between men and women. Let's talk separately.

(1) woman with pot:

Apply to the first bubble-hold the handle with the middle finger and the ring finger, gently lean against the lid with the index finger and hold the handle with the thumb. Because the weight of the teapot increases after it is filled with water, it will affect the feel when pouring soup. It's best to try it with water before using it to find the right angle. It should be noted that if the index finger still touches the pot cover after the first soaking, it is easy to be scalded by the heated pot. At this time, it is suggested that the index finger and middle finger should pass through the handle of the pot, the other side of the thumb should buckle the handle of the pot, and the other finger should lightly press the button of the pot for support.

(2) men take pot:

Compared with girls' grip, boys are more rough and atmospheric when holding the pot. He pinched the lid with his thumb and pinched it through the handle with his forefinger and middle finger. However, it should be noted that the thumb facing the cover is best placed on the cover, so as not to block the air hole.
