About a year ago I started to drink tea more seriously, and mostly
I've been drinking oolongs that I've purchased online from places like
enjoyingtea.com and theteafarm.com. I'm getting a little bored with
their offerings and I'm curious about moving up to higher grade
stuff. But, before I do that and start spending more money I want to
clarify the steeping of Oolong.

I feel like there is a lot of contradictory stuff out there on this.
I originally read that you want 1tsp per 6oz water, which means about
1 and a third tsp per cup and temperatures around 190F, which I
estimated by boiling the water and then letting it sit for a minute.

But I also see that another method is to use a lot more tea, and
higher steeping temperature, for less time. Is this the more correct
way to do it? Is the other way simply an adaptation of black tea
brewing for Oolong, not necessarily the best way to steep Oolong? If
I was to try the second method, how much tea should be used?

Any information or clarity would be helpful.
