Green Tea - Beem Samowar Mr. Tea V2 Mode D'emploi

31
The more tea leaves or tea bags are placed in the tea strainer and the less water is
poured into the teapot, the stronger the tea concentrate will be. Tip: It is better to
add slightly more tea so that you really do get a concentrate (connoisseurs enjoy an
infusion with approx. 3 g for 200 ml of water).
3. Place the tea strainer in the teapot (3) and place the lid (1) on the teapot. It must click
audibly into place.
4. Place the lid (4) on the water reservoir (see the "Operation" chapter | "Removing /
Attaching the Lid").
5. Place the teapot on the lid. This will close off the water reservoir and preheat the
teapot while the water is boiling.
6. Move the On / Off switch (8) on the side of the water reservoir to the I (On) position to
switch on the device. The operating lamp in the On / Off switch lights up.
7. Turn the thermostat control (9) clockwise until it resists to switch on the device and
start boiling the water. The control lamp (11) lights up.
8. As soon as the water boils, turn the thermostat control anticlockwise so that the
control lamp goes out (see the "Preparation" chapter | "Interval Boiling").
9. Take the teapot off the water reservoir.
10. Brew the tea in the teapot with boiling water from the water reservoir (see the
"Operation" chapter | "Operating the Discharge Tap").
11. Place the teapot back on the water reservoir. The steam rising up in the water
reservoir keeps the tea concentrate in the teapot at the temperature that it requires for
"infusion".
12. After the required infusion time, take the tea strainer out of the pot.
13. Pour the concentrate that has been created in the teapot into a tea cup or a tea glass
and top it up with hot water from the water reservoir. This enables you to vary the
strength and the fl avour of the tea as you wish.
The teapot can also remain on the water reservoir after the infusion time while the
device is in operation. This keeps the tea concentrate hot.

Green Tea

Green tea can also be made using the samovar. However, it should not be brewed
using boiling water. Depending on the variety, the ideal temperature is 50 – 70 °C. The
higher quality the tea, the lower the optimum water temperature. The infusion time also
differs depending on the quality of the tea. Most varieties need to infuse for roughly 1 – 3
minutes. High-quality green tea only needs to infuse for around 1 – 1½ minutes.
In the case of tea bags, it is essential to note the manufacturer's preparation instruc-
tions.
