It is a food-just a really healthy one. So you can eat it however you like. A half tea spoon should be enough to get the health benefits, but you can put it on toast or other things that need to be a little sweeter if you like that better.

I added a cranberry tea to mine saw it on you tube. I boiled the tea and used that water to mix it. Hope this help.

Twinnings is a lot less strong. The instructions on the sunflower tea say steep for 5 minutes in boiling water... I suggest throwing out these instructions. Water temp should be 165-175 (as for any green tea, especially loose tea) and steep for 3 minutes depending on desired strength... As always play around with the amount of water u use and how long you steep too see what works best :)Cheers,Geoff

There is some staining with constant heavy usage. I use my all day most days! To remove stain I use a couple of drops of dish soap and a small amount of chlorine bleach. Add about a cup of warm water. Close the contain and agitate gentle. To assist in removing stains from strainer grind, I'll let everything side with the container upside down for 10 or 15 minutes. Then wash as usual and it looks like new. I don't remove my tea leaves with each "batch." I will just add additional water until the tea starts getting too weak, then I dump everything and start over. I think it's worth it. This is my second one!

no, I use a smaller spoon to refill my smaller container that I got at Trader Joe's. The smaller container has a tiny spoon scoop that's perfect for the amount of stevia needed for a cup of tea. I use stevia in my water and tea and smoothies and still the smaller container lasts more than a week, the 1 lb size lasts about a year. so worth the price! it is truly excellent deal!

I just steep the leaves. If you like weaker tea- 1 minute and if you like stronger tea- 3-4 minutes. I would think boiling the leaves would make the tea very bitter- have not heard of this method.

The one I bought was a powder, I measured out just the amount I wanted with a tiny spoon. The opening of the bottle wasn't very wide tho, thus a slim spoon. I used a long-handled iced tea spoon.

I usually would just heat up water n then mix it with the tea, but recently I started using it with smoothies like I add bananas berries n strawberrys n I mix matcha in it n it taste good too. It all depends on what you prefer.

Use bagged tea, that is what my wife does. No mess. My daughter made a spicy apple cider. Remember to clean right a way, thoroughly.

Don't really need instructions on how to use this. I've had it for months now and truly find this pot to be exceptional. Just make sure you hold down the lid with one hand when pouring your tea, as it can fall off. You can also use the tea pot without the strainer in it and just hold the strainer above your cup/mug when you are ready to pour the tea. It strains through it great that way too. Some advice on cleaning it though: little pieces of tea (depending on how small or fine the tea/herb is) can get stuck in the top stainless steel ring around the strainer, you will want to make sure you don't miss that. Just run really hot water through the strainer to give it a good clean. Don't really need instructions on how to use this. I've had it for months now and truly find this pot to be exceptional.

I use a table spoon or slightly less per serving. I purchase the two pound bag which lasts me two months. I have a hot matcha tea every morning

No, you mix what you need. You use 1 teaspoon with 1/4 cup of water fir a serving. Are you trying to replace the egg whites? It won't replace the tofu. It doesn't firm up on its own.

From Teas Etc website: "Avoid over steeping your tea by brewing with slightly less tea and water that is not as hot as normal." I mix black & herbal teas, use just a small amount and water just off the boil; but I put the lid on loosely or leave it uncovered when safe to do so, so it will cool more quickly. I continue to add water throughout the day then add a bit more tea later in the day. If removing the tea from the water is important, I recommend you consider another mug, such as the "Aladdin Tea Infuser Mug."

You should only use water. I was tempted to use a few drops of tea tree oil but trust me water works on it's own. This is the best investment I've made. You will love it!

I'd say about a tea spoon per cups, but don't forget! You don't need to throw your tea after every cups, a spoon could easily be used for 2/3 or 4 cups depending on how long your infuse it... it's all matter of taste.

A "watery gruel" is an entirely appropriate outcome for this machine's "porridge" setting. It's meant for soup. Now the way to create the best damn bowl of McCann's you will ever likely set spoon to is to use the porridge setting but forget the lines. Use 1 part grain to 2 parts water. Feel free to dump in a handful of plump flame raisins, a pinch of salt, a shake of apple pie seasoning and a dash of vanilla. Mornings will never be the same ...

I've taken it as one tablespoon in the morning and one in the evening to balance out its effectiveness. However, sometimes when I forget to take it in the morning I just take two tablespoons in the evening. Both seem to work equally well. I think simply remembering to take two tablespoons each day is the most sensible criteria and not worry too much about doing it "just right".
