After selecting right type of water, boiling water is next important step. Cai Xiang of Song dynasty said in his tea book Cha Lu that “To boil water is most difficult task. Foams will show up if water is not ready. Leaves will fell to bottom if water is over boiled…” When boiling water for brewing tea, people should use high heat to bring water to rapid boiling. Over boiled water is not suitable for brewing tea. For more tea related discussions, please visit our site at www.teahub.com

We discussed difference between raw and ripe Pu-erh in Pu-erh Talk section of our site. Other than 100% raw or 100% ripe Pu-erh Bing Cha, one common practice is to mix ripe and raw Pu-erh leaves together and compress them into Pu-erh Bing Cha. One famous example of this type of Pu-erh is 80s Zi Tian (purple sky), a 1:1 mix of ripe and raw Pu-erh leaves. We now carry this wonderful Pu-erh online at www.teahub.com.
