I wish I could get into tea because there are so many varieties, but how do I make it taste at all satisfying? it's so weak in comparison to coffee

if you like strong flavors you might try irish breakfast tea, the kind i can get at my grocery store has a very strong flavor

you can brew some teas stronger by using more leaves/tea bags, and puerh/fermented tea is another option you could try?

I have tried and enjoy puerh, especially with a little milk. maybe I will use more teabags since I tend to use more coffee grounds per cup than most already.

it's not super recommended for more delicate teas, but brewing longer or hotter is another way. also, mugicha/roasted barley tea tastes mildly like coffee!

I don't think r tea had any special design or anything, and I think the person who started it is long gone.

But yea thank you for starting this good forum for talkin tea.
