Black tea brewing time
How to prepare black tea:
pour water at 90°C over the tea
⏰ Brewing time should be 3 to 5 minutes
Brew black tea the way you like it best:
up to 3 minutes - you will get a very refreshing and stimulating infusion
up to 5 minutes - the infusion will contain less caffeine and its effect will be more relaxing
Brewing for too long will make the infusion taste bitter, but it will not make it contain more caffeine or be more stimulating.
On the contrary, the tannins that are produced with each passing minute and give it a bitter taste neutralize the effect of theine.

Czarna herbata - aromatyczny klasyk
What is black tea and how is it different from green tea?
Black tea is made from fully oxidized leaves of the Camellia sinensis shrub. Unlike green tea (unoxidized), it has a darker infusion, a fuller flavor (notes of malt, chocolate, and spice), and a more pronounced aroma.
How much caffeine does black tea have?
On average, 40–70 mg of caffeine per 250 ml , depending on the variety, number of leaves, and brewing time. This is less than average coffee, but the stimulating effect is milder and longer-lasting.
Czy czarna herbata jest zdrowa?
Contains polyphenols and natural antioxidants. Moderate consumption is okay for most people. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, sensitive to caffeine, or taking medications, consult your doctor.
Jakie są najpopularniejsze rodzaje czarnej herbaty?
Ceylon/Sri Lanka: clean, citrus freshness, medium strength.
Assam (India): strong, malty, great with milk.
Darjeeling (India): lighter, floral and nutmeg (often the "champagne of teas").
Czy czarną herbatę można pić z mlekiem lub cytryną?
Yes. Milk goes well with strong teas (Assam, English Breakfast). Lemon livens up lighter profiles (Ceylon). Don't combine milk and lemon at the same time—the infusion may curdle.
