lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Coffee should have the sugar and milk in BEFORE the hot water water. I only have half a sugar 'cause I'm minding my figure Tea should have the sugar and bag in, then the water but NEVER the milk before the water. It needs to brew for a bit, which you can speed up by gently stirring the tea bag in the cup so the water flows through it nicely. Squeeze it out against the cup before you take it out. Pour in the milk but only until it clouds up to the surface otherwise it'll be too white. And that's that Doc explains it well, I think. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtK_vfp8po8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We're on a big job at the minute and there is a few of us. We have a pot that takes 8 tea bags. We like the Tea (Yorkshire hard water tea bags) to be strong, no Sugar and whatever milk we perfer.
