TEA MACERATES
• With macerates, it’s the patience rather than the procedure that matters most.
The macerate needs enough time to prepare.
• Teas with a relatively low level of fermentation like green tea, wu-lung, rose blooming tea etc.
are suitable for maceration.
• While typical maceration times range around 4 to 8 hours, we recommend that they don’t
exceed 8 hours for otherwise the tea might become too strong or begin to mould.
• Macerated teas have fresh and sweet taste free of bitterness. This is because amino acids
and polyphenols with a sweet taste are being released, while the bitter theine, caffeine and
tannin do not release so easily at a low temperature.

5. Allow the prepared beverage to cool down for several minutes before inserting in the
beverage chiller.
6. Allow the drink to cool down for about 30 minuted to 1 hour. Remove the chiller.
