Herbal tea steep timer
Pick one of 34 home-grown teas and tisanes and this gives you the right water temperature, a sensible dose and the steep time, then runs a countdown so you never walk away and stew it bitter. Everything happens in your browser. Grow the leaves first with the gardening guides.
No tea matches that. Try a shorter word, or browse the full list above.
Pick a tea
Your tea is ready. Lift the leaves out so it does not keep brewing.
Temperatures, doses and times come straight from our own tea guides and are a place to start, not rules. A little more herb or a minute longer makes a stronger cup; cover the pot to keep the aroma in. Where no dose is listed, a rough guide is one tablespoon of dried herb, or two of fresh, per cup. This tool is about flavour, not health advice.
