These measurements, temperatures, and steep times are suggestions only. Only by playing around with these will you find what you truly enjoy. For example, I tend to prefer steeping teas at about 10 degrees lower than the typical steep temperature.
If a tea is too strong, try using less tea.
If it is too weak, use more tea.
If your tea is too bitter, lower the steep temperature.
