What is the Beautiful Tea Chart?

Follow this guide to achieve optimal flavor from different types of tea. Steep Times listed are general and subject to personal preference. Steep times vary due to tea leaf size and bud consistency. Small leaves steep faster than whole buds. To avoid bitterness in a stronger tea, it is best to use more tea, rather than to extend steep time. Taste your tea every 30 seconds and extend steep as needed.

	TEMP/ºF	TEMP/ºC	STEEP TIME
Puer	205 °F	96 °C	3 – 4 minutes
Green Tea	175 °F	80 °C	1 – 3 minutes
Flavored Green Tea	185 °F	85 °C	1 – 3 minutes
Mate Tea	205 °F	96 °C	5 – 6 minutes
Oolong	195 °F	90 °C	3 minutes
Black Tea	212 °F	100 °C	2 – 5 minutes
Flavored Black Tea	212 °F	100 °C	2 – 3 minutes
White Tea	165 °F	74 °C	2 – 5 minutes
Flavored White Tea	175 °F	80 °C	2 – 5 minutes
Rooibos Tea	175 °F	80 °C	5 – 6 minutes
Herbal Tea	212 °F	100 °C	5 – 6 minutes
French Press Coffee	195 – 203 °F	90 – 95 °C	4 – 5 minutes

To change from ºF to ºC, press and hold + and – for 3 seconds.
