Tea simply requires a bit more attention to detail to do it 'right' than coffee, not really harder, but you can't cheat and cut corners as easily, as the taste difference between well made tea and cheap, carlessly done stuff is more noticable. You CANNOT let the water boil for 5-6 minutes and have decent tea, the oxygen is gone, and it is flat & insipid. You control strength by adjusting the quantity, not by length of steeping time...(some latitude here, but not a lot).

ahh....but when you get it JUST right!......

(and, I'm sorry, my friends, but some tea (Oolong for example)you NEVER, NEVER put milk in!...I use NO milk, but I suppose for some teas at some times....*sigh*)
