TIPS ON MAKING TEA
•
The water quality influences tea’s final taste. For better-quality tea, use filtered water.
•
Crushed tea leaves steep faster than whole leaves. To achieve optimal flavor, it may sometimes be
necessary to shorten the brewing time. Steeping for too long may release more tannin, which may
make the drink more bitter.
BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Take the water kettle and all accessories out of the packaging.
2. Grasp the internal lid A
2
by the handle A
1
and turn it anticlockwise until the arrow symbol on the
internal lid A
