Pu-erh tea has many benefits that people are unaware of, and the tea brewing method is only partially understood. Many only know that Pu-erh tea can aid in weight loss. Indeed, Pu-erh tea does have weight loss effects, especially when the correct brewing method is mastered, making the results more noticeable. Below is a detailed introduction to the brewing method of Pu-erh tea. Since the flavor of Pu-erh tea is not easily extracted, it must be brewed with boiling water. 　　

1. Place Pu-erh tea leaves into a filter cup, about 10 grams (enough to cover the bottom of the cup, slightly higher). 　　

2. Pour freshly boiled water into the filter cup, covering the tea leaves. 　　

3. After a moment, remove the filter cup and discard the first infusion of tea. 　　

4. Pour boiling water into the filter cup again, covering the tea leaves. Put the lid on the cup and let it steep for about 20 seconds. 　　

5. Open the lid, turn it upside down, take out the filter cup, let the tea drip slightly, and place it inside the lid. 　　

6. There you have it—a cup of rich, aromatic, and mellow Pu-erh tea is ready. 　　

7. While enjoying the tea, don’t forget the tea leaves in the filter cup—do not discard them. Pu-erh tea can be brewed multiple times. When you’ve almost finished the first cup, you can place the filter cup back into the teacup, add water again, cover, and let it steep for a while. The second cup of Pu-erh tea is ready. 　　

8. The second and third infusions can be mixed together to balance the tea’s strength and avoid over-concentration. 　　

9. After the fourth infusion, increase the steeping time by 15 seconds for each subsequent brew, and so on.
