How to Make Cold Brew Tea

Features of Cold Brew Tea

Unlike Iced Tea, which is brewed hot and chilled over ice, Cold Brew tea is as simple as tea can get; it's just pure loose leaf tea brewed slowly in cold water. The Cold Brew method works especially well for loose leaf tea which highlights their refreshing natural sweetness, distinctive aromas and smooth mouth feel.

The Cold Brew technique highlights tea's sweet flavors while producing a lighter-bodied tea with less astringency and bitterness. The key is that catechins (tea tannins that have astringency, like a dry wine) and caffeine (which has a bitter taste) are more easily extracted at higher water temperatures. Cold water selectively draws out tea's flavor and aroma, while extracting as little as half of these astringent and bitter components derived by hot-brewing. Try your favorite tea brewed both hot and cold side-by-side and taste the difference.

How To Make Cold Brew Tea

Cold-brewing is more time consuming than hot-brewing. Cold brew tea needs to fill with cold water, place the tea into the refrigerator to infuse slowly, and keep cool at least 6-8 hours. Therefore, there are some prepackaged tea bags marketed as "cold brew" friendly. Though these bags designated for cold brewing may work faster, the natural tea's full flavour, sweetness, and aroma are usually compromised. Besides, It is not allowed to determine how strong your tea will taste and to choose your preferred blend of tea.

Using a tea filter to pack your own tea bag is a good way to make your favorite cold brew tea, but most of tea filters constrict the tea leaves. The inside extension volume is the key point to affect the time needed while cold brewing. Using an infuser is an another choice, but it seems not be able to adapt to bottles which is the most frequently use in cold-brewing.

Using Transformer Tea Bag, while cold brewing, is the best choice. The enlarged inside volume provide the packed extract to extend which makes cold brewing less time-consuming. In addition, it can easily adapt to various kinds of bottles or kitchen items, and it makes doing cold brew tea more friendly and simply.

Time needed while cold brewing loose tea by comparing Transformer Tea Bag and ordinary tea filter in bottle. The same amount (about 5 g) of Oolong Tea is packed and sunk in the same temperature (4°C) of cold water.

Transformer Tea Bag: an Innovative Tea Bag Design

There are a variety of ways to brew tea. Loose tea gives the most variety, personalisation, and makes delicious brewed tea. With loose tea, also called loose leaf tea, you can determine just how strong your tea will taste by measuring the tea leaves yourself. But unless you read tea leaves, the soggy refuse in the bottom of the cup is unattractive. Tea bags make a much cleaner cup of tea, but come prepackaged. Besides, most of Tea bags also constrict the tea leaves, but only with loose tea you get the full flavour of the tea.

The variety of ways to brew loose tea is part of a tradition thousands of years old. However, some of them are too consuming. Therefore modern methods of preparing tea are in great demand. 

There is a simplest way to brew the preferred blend of your choice. The only thing you need is to have a cup and a Transformer Tea Bag. The Transformer Tea Bag is an innovative design to pack your own tea bags in the simplest way with no need to do any stitch or glue things. 

It can function as Teapot for loading tea leaves, brewing, and extracting liquid efficiently.

This design can be formed in a three-dimensional shape with extract packed closely inside, and provide the packed extract with an extension volume when the packed extract is sunk in water. The liquid inside is drained off simultaneously when the Transformer Tea Bag is pull out.

It can be as convenient as Tea bag, and even more, if you want to make cold-brew tea, it can adapt to various kinds of bottles or kitchen items.

Transformer Tea Bag: 創新的茶包袋設計

自從百年前茶包發明以來，茶壺與茶包擁護者之間爆發了一場持續至今的百年戰爭。Transformer Tea Bag的出現，終於打破長久以來存在於兩者之間的界線，成功的結合了茶壺的功能 (如：裝填、浸泡、濾出)、以及茶包的便利等特性。讓愛喝茶的人終能同時享受到「壺泡」所帶來的隨性裝填的自由、與茶葉盡情舒展後的原味；以及「袋泡」所擁有的無拘無束、且方便清理的特性。

這個設計在外觀上雖然跟一般的平面茶包袋沒兩樣，然而透過特定的邊長比例，讓使用者僅沿著指示線便能輕易的從平面「變形」成立體形狀，就如同壼泡一般的自由，能隨性將喜好的萃取物裝填其中。而其吊繩位置與倒立正四面體的設計，更是巧妙的使茶包的重心與朝地面之尖端連成一線，因此讓袋中的液體在茶包取出的同時就能立刻濾乾，既不需要任何額外將茶包中水分擠壓出來的動作，也不用再面對水份滴滴答答灑滿一地的困擾，不僅將茶包的便利性發揮到極致，還具有如茶壺濾出液體般的功能。

時至今日，泡茶的方法也仍持續在反應人們的需求與生活型態而演變中。隨著人們對於冷泡茶飲的偏好提高，冷泡茶飲的擁護者正快速崛起。因此產生了對於能同時適應各種不同瓶罐規格、瓶口大小、縮短浸泡等待時間、以及容易清理的冷泡茶飲方式需求。這個設計幾乎可有效解決冷泡茶飲方式所衍生出的所有問題，不僅能方便通過很小開口的容器，並能讓裝有萃取物的茶包袋在被液體濕潤後可以迅速地展開成立體，提供足夠的空間給萃取物充分伸展，而有效降低冷泡茶飲方式所需的等待時間。
