Default Don't cook the tea.

Don't cook the tea.
Bad water bad tea, good water (clean/fresh/pure) is a must. Different
places have different waters; a good filtered water should work. Don't
cook the tea, brew it. If water is too hot, side effects can be
bitterness and loss of flavor. Don't boil all the oxygen out of the
water.
Water temps just a rough guide,
Teas
*White 75'
*Green teas; 70'
*Yellow 75'
*Oolongs; 85'
*Black teas; try below boiling you might be surprised with the sweet
taste, around 85' .
*Pu-erhs: 95 boiling which including evaporation and time off the
burner to the pot, is about 95-96' not 100'!
Preheat tea ware.
