**** Tea Insights
TEA TYPES
There are four main types of tea from the tea plant camellia Sinensis. The
picking and processing methods determine the type of tea finally produced.
Black Tea
Black tea is the most common type of tea worldwide. It is made by fermenting
the harvested leaves for a couple of hours before heating or drying. This
oxidation darkens the leaves and increases the amount of caffeine. Of all the
teas, black tea has the strongest color and flavor.
White Tea
White tea is the rarest and the most exclusive tea. White tea consists of the
whitish buds of the tea plant which are steamed and then left to dry
naturally. This tea is low in caffeine and has a slightly sweet flavor.
Green Tea
Green tea makes up approximately ten percent of the world’s tea. The leaves
are picked, rolled, and dried before they can go brown. Green tea has a
distinctive aroma and a light astringent taste.
Oolong Tea
Oolong Tea is semi-fermented, which means leaves are processed immediately
after picking they only have a short period of oxidation which turns the
leaves from green to red/ brown. Its leaves have a floral, fruity quality and
hence have a delicate fruity taste. It is recommended not to drink Oolong tea
with milk, sugar, or lemon.
Herbal Infusions or Tisanes
Herbal-infused teas are not produced from the tea plant but from flowers,
leaves, roots, or seeds. Common herbal beverages are chamomile, peppermint,
fennel, rose hip, and
lemon verbena. Herbal infusions that do not contain tea will generally not
become bitter with extended brews. These can often be brewed with boiling
water 3 times without jeopardizing the taste.
Blends
Tea producers make blends by combining different types of teas, often in order
to achieve flavor consistency from one season to the next. Common black tea
blends include English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Irish Breakfast, and Russian
Caravan. Brewed tea leaves make an ideal garden fertilizer and help condition
the soil.
TEA STORAGE
- Teas stored inside a vacuum-sealed bag can be stored for up to two years, depending on the quality and grade of tea. Once opened, tea should be stored in an airtight container and kept in a dry and dark place
- Once opened, black teas will last longer than green and oolong teas, but all tea needs to be stored in ideal conditions
- You can tell when tea is past its best if it has lost its aroma and will create either a bitter or dull tasting cup.
TIPS FOR OPTIMAL TEA BREWING
- Water quality affects taste. For best results use filtered water
- Finer tea particles and leaves will infuse more quickly than whole leaves. As a result, finer tea particles often release too much tannin too quickly, creating a harsher taste. Adjust the brewing time until desired strength is achieved.
Suggested Water to Tea Ratio
CUPS / mL | Tea (Teaspoons) |

Descaling
After regular use, hard water can cause mineral build-up in and on many of the
inner functioning components, reducing the water flow, water temperature,
power of the unit and the taste of the water. For the safe and efficient
operation of your purifier, it is important to descale regularly. Breville
recommends conducting a descaling cycle no longer than 6-month intervals.
To assist, every 6 months , the LCD screen will display alert.
Descaling is a 3 step process. Once the descale cycle is complete, 2 rinse
cycles will follow. DESCALE will flash on the LCD screen during the entire
process.

To descale, remove the water tanks from the base and remove the filter. Discard any remaining water in the water tank.
