Having been inspired by the excellent posts regarding loose leaf tea and having never had it before I've bought the following and await instruction;
A fancy new teapot
Loose Leaf Tea (i bought English breakfast tea as its my favourite of the bagged variety)
A tea strainer
wtf do i do now!? The packet says leave in for 3 - 5 mins but doesn't say how much i should put in...
guidance required!

That Tea-pot IS china, I assume? Stainless-steel is no good. You got a caddy - a proper tea-caddy? Do you have patience? It MUST draw/brew/set.* * Differs geographically. |

Whatever you do Soviet do not add milk, drink it black for a week and you wont go back.
