<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ownedbybear, post: 119256, member: 29&quot;]Ah. Bear with me. </p><p><br /></p><p>Teapot - I use a 1960s Old Hall stainless steel one, but a china one is fine, Brown Bettys are nice. Draw fresh COLD water, having allowed the tap to run for a few moments,&nbsp; and put it in the kettle to boil. Warm the pot a little with hot water - from the hot tap is fine. Add one teaspoon of LEAF tea per person to the teapot - a bit more according to what tea you use or if you like it builders&#039; strength. </p><p><br /></p><p>As the water boils fiercely, and DO NOT let it go off the boil, pour it in the pot. Leave it a minute, then stir, then leave it again for another couple of minutes. Mug or cup - add milk to your liking, then pour the tea in. Use a tea strainer if you must, but if you make it properly, the leaves settle. I don&#039;t much care for non UK milk, as we pasteurise rather than sterilise, but there&#039;s not much to be done about that. </p><p><br /></p><p>No tea bags. No poncy tea. No bloody flavourings or additives or nonsense like that. I like Yorkshire tea, but YMMV. And never ever tea bags. </p><p><br /></p><p>I am also very fussy about coffee. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
