Our Tea Portafilter decentespresso... when used on the Decent Espresso Machine, will make tea taste better than you thought possible. "How so?" you say. Firstly, because our recipes use repeated short infusions of 30 seconds, each time flushing and using clean water. This avoids over-extraction, which leeches tannins out. The clean water, every 30 seconds, is also a better solvent than already-brewed water. Next, the temperature of the water and the vessel is precisely controlled. We provide recipes for different kinds of tea, from black to green and delicate white teas, to tisanes, over temperatures ranging from 105ºC to 70ºC. All informed by Scott Rao, who wrote about tea in his book "Everything But Espresso".
Our tea portafilter does fit other espresso machines. However, because the Decent offers precise control over time, temperature and pressure, we can craft tea recipes that can't be done on other machines.
We've been working on these recipes for about a year. They're pretty good now. Good enough that you can just pick one and hit START. But... we're also continuing to improve the tea recipes, with active involvement of tea enthusiasts in our Decent community.
