Default Tea infusion

Non-connected answer- tea is better without sugar. Unless you think
otherwise. You can use tea leaves more than one time, but be prepared
for disappointment. Black teas often do less well on resteeping, but
that's because most people want black tea strong. I personally either
resteep immediately, or put wet leaves in the refrigerator overnight to
resteep the next day. Resteeped tea has gotten almost all of the
caffiene out of it, so what you taste is what you get. Toci

Hi! I've got couple of questions. Should I use the leaves more than one
time. What teas are best to use more than once? Can I use lets say Earl Gray
more than once? How to store the used leaves? Do I let them dry or use them
still moist? How long should I put them in water? Are the temperatures for
later infusions still the same as for the first one?
Non-connected question: Is tea really better without sugar?
Thanks in advance!
