The design is beautiful, from the glass handle to the shape and design of the kettle portion. Now to make tea. Mom poured the water (cold water, but she's using her kettle as a dispenser here) into the pot.
If you're making tea you're not to go over 1200 as shown below.
Next is the tea portion. You put looseleaf tea into the little canister "bucket" that will go into the water shortly. Breville provides you with a sweet little measuring spoon.
Pop on the lid and place it into the pot, on the rod that is in there. You're not "steeping" the tea yet. The tea is still sitting out of the water.
You're now going to select the type of tea, black, green, herbal, White, Oolomng or custom - and, the tea strengh and then press the tea button. All of these options determines the optimal water temperature and, how long the tea should steep for. It's serious about making the perfect cup of tea.
So now the water is reaching it's optimal temperature...
And when it reaches the temp it needs, it starts to lower the tea basket.
And you will have an audience, because it's ridiculously fun to watch.
After the tea has brewed, the tea leaves raise again so they aren't sitting IN the water anymore and, you have the PERFECT cup of tea. I kid you not. It's perfect.
So why is it perfect? Once you have one, you suddenly get it. First of all, it brews a tea at what they've researched to be the perfect temperature to brew and, perfect length of time. And how often do we stick a bunch of tea bags in a pot, only to let it sit too long or serve one cup and the the rest are uber strong (and lukewarm) The Breville Tea Maker solves all of that awkwardness because after brewing the perfect pot, it removes the tea, so it doesn't get too strong AND it keeps the tea warm, with a warming sensor. It also tells you how long the tea has been sitting there, since it brewed. This is PERFECT for when your Mama has guests over because she brews the tea, it beeps at her when it's done, and she can serve the tea and then place it back on the warmer - without worrying about it getting cold or, steeping too long.
It’s that time of year again when I find great fun in trying to find the perfect gift for family. Oscar’s pretty easy. I mean, he tells it as it is – Wii U games. Pokemon. More video games. Slime. But others aren’t so easy to read. In the end, it’s not about the gift at all, it’s about the fun you put in putting it together and, showing love for that person. You needn’t spend anything to do that. However, if you’re like me and find great fun in searching online for the best gift, this gift guide roundup is for you.
