Are the tea leaves clean now? Do all tea leaves need to be washed?

Regarding whether the tea is clean or not, the main focus is on whether there will be pesticide residues. At present, there is a great demand for tea, and it is planted in large areas. Patches are susceptible to pests and diseases, and some tea farmers use a certain amount of pesticides.

If the medication method is appropriate, it will not cause harm to the human body, because pesticides are not water-soluble and generally do not brew tea, so it is required to prohibit the use of pesticides within 7 days before tea picking. If pesticides are sprayed within 7 days before tea picking, the pesticides attached to the leaves may be washed into the tea soup by water.

The drying method of Pu'er tea is sun-dried, which will inevitably be dusty, and those that have been aged for many years are more likely to be contaminated with debris. Other green tea, black tea and other processing processes are faster and more hygienic, and after high temperature drying or frying, it is relatively clean.

Tea leaves will go bad. The shelf life of different tea leaves is also different, for example, the storage life of Pu'er is 15 years, and the storage age limit of black tea is 35 years. After being stored for one year, three years, five years, seven years, and ten years, the tea quality, taste, aroma, and soup color will all have certain changes.

However, after the storage period has passed, the tea cakes will begin to age. <

Tea washing, the key to this problem is tea washing, let's put it simply! The purpose of warming the cup is to wake up the tea, and washing the tea is actually to make the tea leaves better comfortable after the tea is awakened! Everyone will have their own habits in the process of washing tea, you can let the tea leaves roll in the pot during the process of water injection, or you can let the water be injected quietly!

Each brew can be used in a different way to experience the taste of each brew!

Pu'er tea: Washing tea is because the tea processing was not standardized in the past, it was fried in a small pot in the countryside, there were more pigs, chickens and dogs in the countryside, and it was unhygienic when drying, and even hair entered the tea, so it had to be washed every time it was brewed! Now from picking fresh leaves, stall drying, finishing, rolling, drying are integrated, tea leaves can not contact any foreign matter processing is clean, now the tea washing is not unclean sundries, more is to wake up the tea, after waking up can be more rapid taste!

With the development of transportation and storage technology, there is basically no magazine that needs to be washed off the surface of tea, and as for pesticide residues, only the first brew cannot be washed off. On the contrary, in the process of making tea, nutrients will precipitate out and attach to the surface of the tea strip in a crystalline form, most of these nutrients are water-soluble, and they will dissolve in water in a few seconds when exposed to hot water, that is, your first brew of tea, so washing tea will pour out the essence of the tea.

Method 1: If you can't wash it off with a medium-sized detergent, you can soak it in vinegar or bleach to remove it.

When removing small pieces of tea dirt, it can be soaked in a solution of bleaching trouser round agent or cleaning powder, and left overnight to remove tea dirt.

Method 2 To remove the tea dirt on the teacup or teapot, you can use a sponge dipped in salt to rub, which can easily remove the tea dirt.

Method 3: First soak the scrubbing tools such as gauze or paper towels, then dip the soaked gauze in a small amount of edible salt, and wipe the tea rust in the cup with the gauze dipped in salt, the effect is very significant.

Squeeze the toothpaste on the gauze and scrub the stained teacup with the toothpaste, if the effect is not significant, you can squeeze more toothpaste to wipe it off.

Once rinsed off with a cup scrubbed with salt and toothpaste, it's ready to use.

Method 4 The tea dirt at the bottom of the pot and the bottom of the cup, no matter which powerful detergent is used, no matter how hard it is to scrub it, it is not easy to clean the tea dirt at the bottom of the pot and the bottom of the cup.

Peel the potatoes and boil them in a teapot and cup with all the peeled potatoes.

After the water is boiled, it has cooled a little before brushing, and the tea dirt attached to the pure cavity of the teapot and teacup can be easily cleaned.

This method can also be widely used to remove dirt in pots and vases.

Finally, when the author is entertaining, he usually pours out the first course of tea, but if he drinks it himself, he basically does not pour it. When entertaining guests, in courtesy, the first tea will be poured out directly, indicating that the dust and other substances have been washed away, and the tea leaves have been washed. But when I drink it myself, I often don't talk about pouring out the first tea, after all, the author feels that the first tea is the strongest, and I also like to drink strong tea.

When drinking tea, is the first brew of tea dirty and is it necessary to pour it out?

Generally not dirty. However, some teas do not taste very good at the first brew, just to wake up the tea. For example, the first brew of green tea is the essence.

The first bubble is good, but if you are not in good health, such as having a stomach problem, drinking the first bubble may not be good, so it is recommended to throw it out. I usually wash Pu'er tea twice before I start drinking it. So you need to depend on the type of tea and your own situation.

Personally, I think that the first brew of tea is dirty, because the tea is sold after processing, and there are many bacteria that are touched in the process of production and processing.

As far as some rituals of making tea are concerned, the tea must be poured out for the first time, because in this way, after all, a clean and hygienic effect can be achieved, and it can also be used to wake up with tea leaves, which can be brewed better.

When brewing tea, sometimes there will be some foam, some people think that it is dust and impurities in the tea. In fact, these bubbles are caused by a substance called "tea saponin", which has nothing to do with whether the tea is dirty or not.

Not dirty, some people think that the first tea is to wash the tea, which can wash away pesticide residues, but in fact, this is not the case, only a small part of the hot water can be washed off, which is equal to whether the first tea should be drunk, whether it is good or not, it depends on the situation.
