The Types of Tea Equipment Available for Brewing Gourmet Teas

Using quality tea equipment is essential to brewing the perfect cup of gourmet tea.  Tea equipment is not only a staple in the tea connoisseur’s kitchen, but it also makes a great gift.  Whether you’re ready to explore the types of tea equipment available or you want to replace your current equipment in order to improve the quality of the tea you drink, here is a list of popular types of tea equipment that you can use to brew  gourmet tea.  These descriptions will help you make the decision of which tea equipment to purchase.

Tea Kettles

There is a vast variety of tea kettles to choose from on the market.  However, they are rarely of good quality.  Most tea kettles are made of cheap materials.  When shopping for a tea kettle, important features to look for include a tight-fitting lid, quality material (avoid aluminum), and handles that don’t get hot when the kettle is heated.  You may choose to get a kettle that whistles for convenience but some people find the whistling annoying.

Do not put tea leaves inside of your tea kettle.  Some people make the mistake of brewing their tea inside of the kettle itself.  However, to make the best tasting  gourmet teas, you should only add fresh filtered water to your kettle and steep the tea in another receptacle.  Materials that are used to make tea kettles include copper, stainless steel, and glass.  Electric tea kettles are also available if you favor a kettle that is modern and optimally convenient.

Tea Pots

Most gourmet tea connoisseurs recommend using a different tea pot for each type of tea you drink.  This is because the technique for brewing a good cup of tea is different depending on the type of tea.  Green teas are best brewed in a small tea pot from China or Japan.  Porcelain 2 to 4-cup tea pots are appropriate for brewing black tea.  Herbal gourmet teas look colorful and elegant when brewed in clear glass tea pots.  The only downside of glass tea pots is that they lose their temperature fast.

Tea pots are most commonly made of ceramic or porcelain.  Features to look for when shopping around for a tea pot include a tight-fitting lid, a spout that doesn’t leak, a smooth surface, and balanced proportions.  Tea pots make beautiful adornments and gifts as well.

The Yixing tea pot is a Chinese tea pot made of unique clay found only in the Yixing region of China.  Yixing tea pots preserve the flavor of the tea you brew and after several years of brewing the same tea in a Yixing tea pot, it is said that you can simply pour hot water into the empty tea pot to brew your favorite tea!

Tea Infusers

Other Tea Accessories

Other accessories that will help you brew a delicious tasting cup of gourmet tea include tea cups, tea spoons, digital timers, and tea cozies.  Tea cups come in a variety of shapes, colors, and sizes.  You may even choose to brew your tea inside of your tea cup using a tea mug that contains a fitted infuser.  White tea cups can become discolored over time, particularly if you drink a lot of black tea.  Ceramic tea pots are good because they retain the tea’s heat for longer.  And like tea pots, tea cups make great gifts.

Tea spoons are convenient to have because they enable you to measure the appropriate amount of loose leaf gourmet teas to brew.  Digital timers can also come in handy if you want to be sure that you are steeping your gourmet teas for the right amount of time.  Thermometers enable you to measure the temperature of the water you use to brew your tea.  They can be convenient if you frequently drink teas like green or white tea, which require lower temperature water.  You may also want a tea cozy to keep your tea pot warm so you won’t have to reheat your tea and ruin its flavor.  Tea cozies are the perfect accessory to have on hand during tea parties.  It’s also a good idea to purchase a tea container with a tight-fitting lid in order to store your loose leaf gourmet teas.  A container with a tight-fitting lid will help you keep your tea fresh and prevent it from getting stale.

Question by dollfacedbaby1: Can you help me lose weight?

Okay, so here’s the thing. I started the new year wanting to lose weight. I am very over weight and have been almost all my life as are most of my mother’s side of the family. So a couple of weeks ago I went and bought a tread mill. I already had the excercise equipment “The Firm”. I also bought some Hoodia pills and I’ve been drinking green tea at work instead of water.

I have cut myself down to 1600-1800 calories a day and I walk at 2.0 miles per hour on my treadmill every other day and excercise for 1 hour to The Firm on the other days.

As stated before I have been doing this for two weeks and I have not lost any weight at all. Not one pound. I have not gained any, but I don’t understand why I have not lost any either.

I am doing everything that has been suggested by everyone I know. Does anyone have any ideas? I have heard of some people losing like 8 pounds the first week of a diet. How do they do it? I feel discouraged and feel if I could lose some I would feel better.

Answer by grimmyTea
Those people on “The Biggest Loser” have the benefit of a entire daily schedule devoted to losing weight. For normal people who actually have jobs, etc. we can’t devote that much time or money. For us, the process is much slower.

You are taking the right approach of combining diet and exercise, but it’s going to take time. I don’t know if green tea is going to help you at all. I would just go with plain water instead.

I’m not familiar with “The Firm.” From what I could find on the internet, it might be a little more focused on body sculpting than you need right now. Instead, I would just stick with the walking (either outside or on the treadmill). Do it every day instead of every other day. You didn’t say how long you did it for. I would recommend at least 30 minutes–an hour if you have the time. I also don’t have a good feel for how fast 2 mph is for you. The real question is how hard your body is working. I usually listen to music while I am working out. If you can sing along, then you aren’t working hard enough. You should be able to talk in short sentences, but not comfortably. That’s kind of a rough idea. I included a link below to an about.com article about target heart rate and fat-burning that I thought was really good.

With regards to the number of calories you are eating, you didn’t tell us how many you were getting before. For example, if you cut down from 2000 to 1600-1800, then you aren’t going to lose weight that quickly (which isn’t necessarily bad–it might actually be better in the long run).

Anyway, don’t be discouraged. Lots of people lose weight quickly with starvation diets and such, but eventually gain it all back. Losing weight the right way is a slow process, but it pays off in the long run. If you burn more calories than you eat, you *will* lose weight–it’s a fundamental law of physics.

Question by sugarsweeteegrl: Has anyone tried the weight loss “tricks” from Kevin Trudeau’s book Natural Cures?

Has anyone who has read Kevin Trudeau’s book ,Natural Cures “They” Don’t Want You To Know About, tried the things mentioned for weight loss? Have you had any sucess? If so what things did you or didn’t you follow?
Well so far no one has even came close to answering this question…I DIDN’T ASK if anyone thinks they guy is legit and blah, blah, blah (yes, even I have my doubts…)I just simpliy wanted to know if any of the things he has mentioned in his has helped anyone LOSE WEIGHT OR NOT and what things DID THEY TRY. Try answering the question without all the getting into all the crud, PLEASE

Best answer:

Answer by Solo
This my opinion, but I believe Kevin Trudeaus is a total “rip-off!” His book talks more about controversy and government scandals than true methods and cures for the medical conditions he claims he can cure. Also, once you get the book, you need to pay more money for his website or other monthly journals.
I believe he preys on the fears of the public and create false hopes for the people without many options to make people purchase his book.

My advice, eat healthier, exercises more. Simple law of universe, burn more calories than you eat to lose weight.

My 2 cents.
