Use water around 95–100°C \/ 203–212°F. Give the tea a quick 5–10 second rinse to begin opening the compressed leaf. Start with a 5–10 second first drinking infusion, then increase the time gradually as the brick loosens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMug or everyday teapot:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use one mini brick for 300–400ml of hot water. Steep for around 1–2 minutes, taste, then re-steep several times. For a lighter cup, shorten the first infusion; for a richer cup, let the brick open fully over successive refills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy the mini-square format is useful\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTraditional raw Pu-erh cakes normally require a tea knife and a little practice to portion cleanly. These approximately 6g mini bricks make dosing much easier. They are practical for office tea, travel, hotel stays, tasting sessions and anyone who wants a repeatable amount of sheng puer without weighing leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStorage \u0026amp; aging\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore in a clean, dry, ventilated and odor-free environment away from direct sunlight, excess humidity, perfume and cooking smells. Raw Pu-erh is traditionally suitable for continued maturation, and these compact portions can be kept over time when stored under stable conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTea-room styling \u0026amp; display\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe silver wrappers and kraft-paper labels give these mini bricks a restrained, almost archival look.
