Hahahahahaha. I am afraid to steep Adagio blacks longer than 2 minutes.
I was just following their steeping parameters. I won’t be doing that again.
I don’t think I’ve ever ordered from Adagio, so probably have never actually bothered to look at their parameters (and I typically brew all blacks the first time at 2 minutes, since it seems to be the minimum time at which everything is still ok). Hopefully you can make it work with a shorter infusion! I wonder if they actually brew their teas the way they say… (or maybe, they intend for everyone to add copious amounts of milk and sugar).
Usually I keep blacks to 2.5-3 min steeps but I do try to follow the suggested parameters at least once
Ha ha ha! I love your honesty here. I’m not a fan of their bases either.
I used to be super obsessive about using the given parameters… until I ruined a few teas. I then decided, screw it. Haha.
Kittenna, I thought that was how tea was supposed to taste, so I always added milk and sugar. Now I can actually drink teas plain, as long as I watch the time and temperature. :)
That’s also why I thought I hated all black teas, haha, because anything I’d ever had was way overbrewed (and well, coffee is pretty nasty plain, too!)
