This is cool. Why would I want this?
For liquid fertilizer, but seems silly when you can get the same results but just throwing the compost in the water and stirring it around, letting the solids sink to the bottom.
I’ve never used it, but the idea is that nutrient uptake will be faster than if someone just dressed the top of the soil with compost. The extra aerobic bacteria could also be beneficial.
If you boil coffee it’ll be over extracted, bitter, and nasty.
Ever had Chinese medicine?
Gotta keep the yang up
Saturn is a mixture of gases. It has a solid rocky/hydrogen core surrounded by a layer of liquid hydrogen/helium. You could argue that this intermediate liquid layer might have solid particulates, and this would agree with the definition, but overall Saturn is too complicated to be classified this way. A better extreme example would be something like Earth’s oceans.

An AI would give a generic definition of Saturn and a generic definition of tea and then say something irrelevant like “scientists disagree about the exact composition of Saturn’s core”
So, is a martini with the olive on top, a preparation rebel/igredient neutral or ingredient purist?
Beef tea was when people would boil jerky to rehydrate it. I actually do that at work sometimes! Most nights I enjoy bouillon broth on its own, but occasionally I’ll spruce it up with a little jerky, and it actually thicken up and get more tender! It also GREATLY enhances the flavor of the broth. When the dry night air of the office is bothering my throat, nothing satisfies quite like warm broth.
(I get hot water by not putting any coffee grounds in the coffee machine. I also use this to prepare tea on occasion, and also ramen cups every once in a blue moon)
+1 for coffee machine cup ramen, a very useful technique that I implement often.
Tea preparation rebels are not constrained by shallow concepts like ‘being edible’
This and the cube rule are the best way to make an argument for categorizing edible items
Coffee is the best tea
I’m sorry, but BOILING? You do not BOIL tea leaves unless you are an absolute heathen. You may pour just-off-the-stove, formerly boiling water over black tea leaves, making the tea about 210 degrees Fahrenheit. But you do NOT put allow water with tea leaves in it to BOIL unless you are seriously deranged.
Yeah this. Biggest mistake most people that hate tea make is they dont bother learning that tea has specific temps for brewing depending on the leaves and that pouring boiling water off the stove on it will make most teas bitter.
Many teas are best at 85-90C, just off the boil.
Coffee isn’t a tea, as you don’t boil it. If you boil it, you burn the coffee! That’s an extraction - you can steep it, but it’s better if you just push the water through at high pressure (which will royally screw up a tea).
Ah, pedantry in pedantry. So - now for Lemmy to tell me what I’ve gotten wrong :-D
I boil my coffee, and a lot of people do. Espresso and derivatives are rather new way of making coffee, the old way is by boiling a coffee.
Boiling green tea is also considered burnt, as green teas recommended steeping temp is 170-175, unless I misunderstood what you mean there.
No, that’s fair. Coffee at pressure is about 93 - 95°C… No idea for drip/french press/v60 etc. as I don’t use those For Aeropress, I’d wait until the kettle stopped making noise, that seemed to be a good balance without burning the oils.
Teas are generally not boiled, but steeped in hot water that was boiling a moment ago. I was going to say that cowboy coffee is boiled, but then I looked it up, and even then, the pot is pulled off the heat before adding the grounds.
I do boil coffee. One of us might be a coffee preparation purist.
Asking anyway. Hey Fiora, is a hotdog in a hotdog bun considered a sandwich?
It’s a taco. Next question
Rivers are hot dogs by the way
Actually ingredient purist should be “tea must be made from tea leaves (Camellia sinensis)”. Black and green tea both come from the same plant. There are people who will tell you that chamomile is a “herbal infusions” and not tea because it comes from a different plant.
If it’s not made of tea, it’s not tea. It’s an infusion.
It’s extra annoying to me because in my first language there’s separate words for “tea-tea” and “some boiled herbs-tea” that are commonly used, but thanks to lazy translation people are beginning to call everything “tea”.
Thank you! Tisanes are not tea. I will die on this hill.
TIL a new fancy word.
That is why I’m an ingredient purist. And I should add that Chamomile is an herbal infusion. No quote needeed. Don’t offer me tee if your want to serve me some chamomile. Don’t offer me tee either if you want to serve me hot water and present me an assortiment of plant a small bag. Tell me your going to serve hot water and I will chose what I drink.
And to keep the rant going in french “herbal tea” does not even have the “tee” word in it. So it is even more frustrating when someone offer you tee and you end up with some random “tisane” *rolling his eyes*
I guess I’ll just offer you nothing then and instead ask you to leave? ¯\(ツ)/¯
If it doesn’t come from the Camellia sinensis region of France it’s not real tea, just sparkling leaf water
Really feels like one should be “tea is made from tea”
except… with “pure” tea you don’t consume the original ingredient. (eating tea leaves or coffee grounds? eeww.)
pho, etc you do. ergo, not tea.
What about stock? Take some bones, spices, and vegetables; boil them in water; and strain out all the solids. You’re left with nothing but a flavored liquid.
Now you’ve got a stew going!
sure, stock is tea. the base of pho is tea, but pho isn’t pho until you at least put some noodles in it. Until then, it’s just ingredients for pho.
Pho is just animal oil/juice suspended. Everything else is like milk, honey, lemon, sugar, etc. that people do consume in tea.
what about the rice noodles, chicken, mushrooms, etc etc.? come on.
As the other person mentioned, the base of pho is the stock which includes steeped plants. So it’s tea with some other things thrown in it.
So if a deranged person drinks the broth without eating the ingredients, did they then turn their pho into tea?
they didn’t have pho to start with. they just drank one of the ingredients of pho.
Wait, so then we have the comparison all wrong. Pho isn’t Vietnamese Tea, Tea is British Pho?
no.
Pretty sure its pronounced “Nuh”
No, because you don’t really make tea by boiling tea leaves. Tea is an infusion made from pouring hot water over tea leaves. Not boiling tea leaves.
Pho is just a loose-leaf tea.
that’s only true if you eat tea leaves.
In that instance a clogged gutter is still tea
Might be cleaner than some people’s tea pots… 😅
