Upper, middle and lower casting methods

Apart from using lidded bowls for brewing, more people use taller straight glass cups with top, middle or bottom pitchers depending on the craftsmanship, tenderness and freshness of the green tea. The glass material dissipates heat quickly and the cups are not covered, so it is not easy to smother the delicate green tea and the brewing failure rate is lower. While waiting for the tea leaves to release their contents, you can also enjoy the "tea dance" as the tea leaves undulate and stretch in the cup, which is a combination of visual, olfactory and flavouring enjoyment. For reference, useWeigh three grams of green tea and put it into a cup of 500ml of hot water from the top of the water surface to dry the tea leaves, which will float on the surface of the water and gradually eat the water, sinking into the bottom of the water more and more with the change of time, while floating and sinking, which is suitable for the young buds to stretch, and this is the most common 'upward casting method' of the Pupu film tea method.
